Jebsen & Jessen

Nurul Ili Jamaluddin is a senior HR leader with extensive experience in total rewards, performance management, and organisational transformation. As Group Head of Rewards at Jebsen & Jessen, a multinational group operating across 16 countries, she leads the Group’s rewards strategy while partnering with business leaders to strengthen organisational performance and support long-term business priorities.
