Al Rajhi Bank Malaysia (ARBM) announces partnership with Darwinbox to fast-track its human resources (HR) digital transformation, signifying the Bank’s ambition to become the number one Islamic innovation bank in Malaysia. Darwinbox’s human resource management system (HRMS) will streamline HR processes and elevate the employee experience, and the internal customers.
ARBM’s digitalisation of HR is in line with its cloud-first digital strategy. The introduction of an HRMS will bring in automation; alleviating administrative work and allowing for more self-service on the part of employees and managers. This will reduce friction in core HR processes and serve the bank’s diverse set of employees. Further, the availability of real-time data and contextual insights will enable quick and accurate data-driven decisions.
Darwinbox enables over 650 enterprises worldwide to automate their HR processes and empower their workforces. For ARBM, this partnership brings about the consolidation of multiple HR systems into one system, allowing a seamless data transfer process and minimising downtime. Darwinbox’s intuitive UI/UX enhances the overall employee experience while helping the bank incorporate best practices in talent, performance, and workforce management through its comprehensive HRMS suite.
Arsalaan (Oz) Ahmed, CEO at Al Rajhi Bank Malaysia, said, “We believe the partnership between Darwinbox and ARBM will supercharge our vision and help us advance towards digital transformation that would best serve our employees and customers. We are passionate about innovating for our customers so they can enjoy a seamless banking experience, and this is only possible by embracing cutting-edge and innovative technology for our people and bringing that innovative passion to our employees.”
Transformation begins with building a culture of digital adaptability and acceptance, as well as fostering employee engagement. ARBM’s partnership with Darwinbox supports the Bank’s efforts to enhance its bank-wide employee experience, streamline corporate operations, and enable improved data-driven decision-making. All this while improving how ARBM’s people approach their everyday work. This strategic partnership will help the Bank to stay ahead of the curve and enable it to fulfill its vision much quicker.
Jayant Paleti, Co-founder of Darwinbox, said, “We are focused on making digital transformation smooth and seamless for our customers.
