Job Summary 

We are looking for an energetic, organised, and people-oriented HR Executive to join Dhanam’s Head Office team in Coimbatore. This is a generalist HR role supporting the full HR lifecycle across our expanding branch network — from talent acquisition and onboarding to payroll coordination, compliance, and employee engagement. The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth NBFC environment and take ownership of HR processes with minimal supervision.

Key Responsibilities 

1. Talent Acquisition & Recruitment

•    Manage end-to-end recruitment for branch roles including Branch Managers, ABMs, LAP Executives, Gold Appraisers, and Wealth Managers across Tamil Nadu.

•    Source candidates through job portals (Apna, Naukri, LinkedIn), social media, employee referrals, walk-ins, and campus channels.

•    Screen resumes, conduct initial telephonic interviews, and coordinate interview schedules with hiring managers.

•    Maintain an updated recruitment tracker — active positions, pipeline status, offer stage, and joining confirmations.

•    Coordinate background verification, reference checks, and pre-joining documentation for selected candidates.

2. Onboarding & Induction

•    Manage smooth onboarding of new joiners across all branches — including offer letter issuance, document collection, ID creation, and system access coordination.

•    Conduct and coordinate structured induction programs covering company policies, compliance norms, code of conduct, and role-specific orientation.

•    Act as the primary point of contact for new employees during their first 30 days to ensure a positive onboarding experience.

•    Maintain accurate and complete employee records in the HRIS/HR master file from day one.

3. Payroll Coordination & Statutory Compliance

•    Coordinate monthly payroll inputs accurately and on time — including attendance, leave, new joiner and exit data — with the finance / payroll team.

•    Ensure compliance with statutory requirements including PF, ESI, PT, TDS, Gratuity, and LWF for all employees.

•    Maintain and update payroll records, salary structures, and compensation revision documentation.

•    Assist employees with payroll queries, payslip generation, Form 16, and other compensation-related clarifications.

4. HR Operations & Policy Administration

•    Maintain up-to-date HR records, employee files, contracts, confirmation letters, and policy acknowledgements for all employees.

•    Track and administer leave, attendance, and working hour records across all branches using the HR system.

•    Coordinate issuance of all HR letters — offer letters, appointment letters, confirmation letters, increment letters, and relieving letters.

•    Support the implementation and communication of HR policies, updates, and circulars across the organisation.

5. Employee Relations & Engagement

•    Serve as the first point of contact for employee grievances, concerns, and queries — providing timely and empathetic resolution.

•    Organise and coordinate employee engagement initiatives, recognition programmes, team outings, and cultural events.

•    Facilitate exit interviews for departing employees and compile feedback for management review.

•    Support performance review cycles — coordinating appraisal timelines, collecting appraisal data, and preparing summary reports.

6. Compliance, Reporting & HR Analytics

•    Ensure all HR practices adhere to applicable labour laws, Shops & Establishments Act, and RBI NBFC HR compliance requirements.

•    Prepare regular HR MIS reports — headcount, attrition, recruitment TAT, training hours, and leave utilisation — for management review.

•    Coordinate with legal and compliance teams on employment contract management and labour law matters.

•    Support the POSH (Prevention of Sexual Harassment) compliance framework including awareness, committee coordination, and case documentation.
