What does your role entail and what makes it meaningful to you?
Since joining Axess in October 2024, I have been leading regional HR strategy and operations, focusing on talent acquisition and retention, employee engagement, and inclusion. I also ensure compliance with regional labour laws and global HR standards, while supporting digital transformation through data‑driven HR practices.
What makes this journey truly meaningful is building a collaborative culture where we communicate well, learn from one another, and grow together across borders. Having joined Axess at the same time I moved to Qatar, I have experienced firsthand how deeply the company trusts and empowers its people. This has made my commitment to nurturing, supporting, and championing our regional talent incredibly personal and purpose-driven.
How is it like being part of a global team?
It is a truly global experience without boundaries. Reporting into Dubai and KSA while supporting teams across the Middle East and India gives me a unique vantage point. We work as one unit regardless of geography. The cultural insight I gain is the most rewarding aspect of the role. I learn something new from my colleagues every day, which demonstrates that diversity is our greatest strength.
What is the best thing about working at Axess?
The enterprising spirit, work-life harmony, and diverse culture truly set Axess apart. As a mother of a 5-year-old, the trust and flexibility Axess provides empower me to succeed in a high-impact regional role with confidence. This environment allows me to stay deeply passionate about both my career and life outside work.
