Join a people team that's building for the future
If you're someone who enjoys getting stuck into every aspect of HR, thrives in a fast-moving environment and takes pride in keeping things running smoothly, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.
We're partnering with a growing organisation that's entering an exciting new chapter. With ambitious expansion plans, acquisitions on the horizon and a brand-new HR system being embedded across the business, they're investing heavily in their People function and are looking for an experienced HR Advisor to play a key role in that journey.
This is a genuinely varied position where no two days are the same. You'll be supporting managers, handling employee relations, improving processes, producing HR reporting and helping establish the foundations of a modern, efficient People function. This is a hands-on operational role. Alongside advisory work, you'll be happy getting involved in HR administration, maintaining employee data, supporting system implementation and tackling the day-to-day tasks that keep a busy People team moving.
As the team and infrastructure continue to develop, you'll also become involved in wider HR projects, process improvements and business change initiatives, allowing the role to naturally grow over time.

* Managing HR administration and maintaining accurate employee records, contracts and documentation.
* Supporting the continued implementation and optimisation of the new HR system, including data migration, cleansing and ongoing maintenance.
* Producing HR reports, dashboards and management information to support business decisions and monitor key people metrics.
* Using HR data and Excel to identify trends and provide meaningful insight.
* Assisting with recruitment, onboarding and wider employee lifecycle activities.
* Identifying opportunities to improve HR processes and helping implement more efficient ways of working.
* Supporting wider People projects as the organisation continues to grow and evolve.
About You:
* We're looking for an experienced HR Advisor who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and isn't afraid to roll their sleeves up.
* You'll be equally comfortable managing employee relations, completing HR administration, producing reports and supporting business change.
* Previous experience in a broad HR Advisor or HR Generalist role.
* CIPD Level 5 qualification (or equivalent experience).
* Strong working knowledge of UK employment law.
* Confidence managing employee relations cases with minimal supervision.
* Experience producing HR reports and analysing data using Excel and HR systems.
* Excellent organisation skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
* A proactive, solutions-focused approach with a willingness to get involved wherever needed.
Why Apply?
This is an opportunity to join a business where HR is genuinely evolving. You'll work alongside an ambitious People leadership team that is building a modern HR function capable of supporting an exciting period of business growth. Your ideas will be welcomed, your contribution will be recognised, and you'll have the chance to make a real impact from day one.
Benefits:
* 28 days annual leave + bank holidays
