Director: Human Resources

at  University of Fort Hare

Eastern Cape, Eastern Cape
Like its bold start in 1916 and its subsequent stance of defiance in the 1960’s through to 1994, this iconic university
has shown grit and determination. Now again in the 2000’s, it has faced yet another bout of assault, this time of covert
proportions. And yet again, the same grit and determination has shone through. Are you eager and determined to help reposition this iconic institution to the position it so richly deserves? The University of Fort Hare is seeking for applications from appropriately qualified and experienced candidates for a Director: Human Resources position on a 5 Year Fixed-term Contract, in the People Management & Support division.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:

• Master’s degree in Human Resources or Industrial psychology.
• HPCSA registration as an Industrial Psychologist.
• Proven experience as an HR specialist in a leadership position of no less than 5 years, gained in a complex organisational environment, preferably in a Higher Education or similar sector.
• Experience establishing HR systems and technical solutions in complex contexts.
• Possess a strong understanding of legal frameworks around labour laws and employee relations.
