Organisations that grow quickly need HR leadership that can keep pace. This is a senior, standalone HR role within a group business of scale, offering full ownership of the HR function across Scotland and support responsibility for several UK entities.
Reporting into an established Group HR team based in Ireland, you will serve as the primary HR business partner on the ground. The scope is broad and the expectations are high: this is not a supporting role. You will be accountable for the full generalist remit, operating at both a strategic and operational level, and you will be expected to hit the ground running from day one.
What you will do
Lead and deliver all HR activity across the Scotland business and provide HR support to UK group companies
Own the full employee relations caseload, including disciplinary, grievance, absence and performance management processes, end-to-end
Develop, review and maintain HR policies, procedures and employee handbooks in compliance with current UK employment legislation
Manage end-to-end recruitment activity and contribute to workforce planning and succession strategy
Design and deliver onboarding, induction and learning and development programmes across the business
Lead organisational change initiatives, providing clear structure and communication throughout
What you will bring
Substantial experience in a broad HR generalist or HR lead role, ideally in a multi-site or group environment
Demonstrable strength in employee relations, with a track record of managing complex cases to resolution
Sound, commercially applied knowledge of UK employment law
Rigorous approach to HR administration, record keeping and systems management
CIPD qualification or equivalent
Full driving licence and willingness to travel regularly across Scottish locations
Why this appointment?
This role carries real authority and real accountability. You will have the scope to shape HR practice across multiple businesses, with the support of an experienced group function and the visibility that comes with being the senior HR professional in your region.
