Field-based | Extensive Travel Required
**2 days a week you will be based in Farnham**
Are you a hands-on HR Business Partner who thrives in fast-paced, people-driven environments? Do you enjoy being out in the business, building relationships, coaching leaders and making a visible impact where it matters most?
We’re partnering with a dynamic, growing organisation to recruit a Regional HR Business Partner supporting multiple high-energy sites across the South, including Bournemouth, Farnham, Eastleigh, Gosport and surrounding areas.
This is not a desk-based role. It’s a true business partnering position, working closely with operational leaders in environments that are busy, varied and often unpredictable. From family-friendly venues to high-energy, adult-focused experiences, no two sites or days are the same.
You’ll act as a trusted partner to General Managers and their teams, supporting them through the realities of running demanding, people-heavy operations.
Key responsibilities include:
- Partnering with GMs and leadership teams to build capability, confidence and consistency
- Coaching and developing managers at all levels, from new leaders to experienced operators
- Supporting across the full HR spectrum including employee relations, performance, engagement, culture and talent
- Acting as the go-to for complex, real-world people challenges in fast-moving environments
- Embedding values, leadership behaviours and people frameworks across the region
- Working closely with senior stakeholders, enabling them to stay focused on strategic priorities
- Navigating high-volume, operational sites where peak activity runs into evenings
- Supporting environments with diverse teams and varying workplace cultures
- Engaging with third-party HR providers where required
- Contributing to areas requiring sound judgement, including safeguarding considerations
About You
- Experience in retail, hospitality, leisure or similar high-volume, multi-site environments
- A natural coach who enjoys developing others, particularly emerging leaders
- Comfortable working in operational, sometimes challenging environments
- Approachable, pragmatic and solutions-focused in your HR style
- Able to balance commercial awareness with a strong people focus
- Energised by being on site, building relationships and influencing in real time
- Resilient, adaptable and able to navigate pace and ambiguity
- Willing and able to travel extensively across the region
Why Join
This is a business with real energy and momentum. The culture is inclusive, fast-moving and people-focused, where HR is valued as a true partner to the operation. You’ll have the opportunity to shape leadership capability, influence culture and make a tangible difference across multiple sites.
