ABOUT MELANIE LYNG

Strategic and empathetic HR/Employee Relations Leader with experience in employee relations, HR partnering and HR Management in a variety of organisational contexts. Ability to foster positive workplace culture, resolve complex employee issues, and align HR practices with business goals. Adept at building trust across all levels of the organization and driving initiatives that enhance employee engagement and retention. Proven track record of partnering with business leaders to develop and deliver and ER strategy that is aligned to business goals. I work with a range of stakeholders and have a great reputation in the business in terms of using a coaching and supportive style to work through issues and help managers to feel supported. I am very organised and flexible in terms of hours of work. I manage a high workload where the prioritisation changes daily. I am resilient and there are few issues I deal with which ‘phase’ me. As a trained coach, I believe every issue has a solution and it is just a matter of finding the right way forward.
