Marliene Combrink

I am a seasoned professional with 20+ years of human resources and people management experience in the engineering and manufacturing sectors. Recognized for demonstrating a natural aptitude for driving performance improvement through effective leadership, as well as for supporting workforce planning and forecasting and proactively identifying and addressing operational needs. Professional focal points include HR management, team leadership, client engagement, staff recruitment, training coordination, cost reduction, performance assessment, health and safety compliance, and networking. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilization of effective communication skills, interpersonal skills, as well as business acumen, strategy development, project management, and change management to support efficiency and quality. Currently, I am a Group HR Generalist with Jubaili Bros. Under my leadership, I ensure the success of the HR organization for the MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa regions. In addition, I liaise with senior leadership, stakeholders, and cross-functional teams to ensure the company’s HR support structure is driving the business forward with minimal expenditures. Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, people-focused and strategic expert who can be relied on to offer solutions that deliver impactful results on time and under budget. Honesty and Integrity is of utmost importance for me in all my professional and personal dealings. I believe we lead by our actions. I am interested in contacting former colleagues and managers, as well as other professionals in my field. Feel free to contact me through this profile if you wish to connect.
