Run onboarding culture sessions to introduce new hires to BJAK's values, expectations, and ways of working. Partner with People Ops and leaders to embed culture, feedback, and recognition into daily practices. Track engagement and learning data, gather feedback, and continuously improve program quality and impact. What You Will Need Experience in learning & development, employee engagement, culture, or HR program roles. Strong execution and coordination skills-you can run multiple programs without dropping details. Comfort working with calendars, trackers, spreadsheets, and basic HR systems (LMS/HRIS). Clear communication and facilitation skills, especially in group settings. A practical mindset-focused on what actually works, not theory.
