As the Associate Director - Human Resources at Masai, I manage the full spectrum of HR for a fast-scaling edtech organization - from hiring and performance to culture, policies, and employee experience. With 9 years of hands-on HR experience, my focus is simple: build processes that work, solve problems quickly, and create an environment where people can do great work without unnecessary friction. At Masai, I work closely with leadership to set up practical, scalable HR systems - structured performance reviews, clear career paths, better communication channels, and data-driven people decisions. I also oversee employee engagement, talent development, and retention, ensuring our teams stay motivated and aligned with organisational goals. I believe HR should be approachable, transparent, and operationally strong. My approach is rooted in clarity, consistency, and understanding what people actually need to succeed - not just what looks good on paper.
