Hybrid | (4 in/1 from home)
Are you an experienced Senior HR Advisor looking for your next challenge? We’re partnering with a growing organisation to recruit a Senior HR Advisor on a 12‑month fixed‑term contract.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a confident HR generalist who thrives in a fast‑paced, operational environment and enjoys working closely with managers to deliver a first‑class people service. This role has designed to be a brilliant bridge to a future HR Business Partner role.
The Role
Working as part of an established HR team, you’ll provide hands‑on support across the full employee lifecycle. No two days will be the same, and you’ll play a key role in driving positive employee relations, supporting managers, and ensuring HR operations run smoothly.
Key responsibilities include:
• Managing ER cases end‑to‑end, including disciplinary, grievance, absence and capability
• Coaching managers on HR best practice and legislation
• Supporting workforce planning and organisational change
• Leading the recruitment process for a range of roles
• Overseeing onboarding, probation and employee experience
• Supporting performance reviews and development cycles
• Ensuring HR compliance, GDPR standards and accurate record‑keeping
• Coordinating engagement activities and people‑related forums
• Preparing monthly payroll changes and supporting audits where required
About You
We’re looking for someone who brings credibility, confidence and excellent communication skills. You’ll be CIPD Level 5 or working towards, with strong HR Advisory experience—ideally within a fast‑moving, operational or industrial setting.
You will also bring:
• Solid knowledge of UK employment law
• Proven ER case management experience
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
• A pragmatic, solutions‑focused approach
• Confidence coaching and influencing managers at all levels
Experience within a unionised environment is desirable but not essential.
Why Apply?
• Hybrid working (4 in/1 from home)
• A supportive team and engaged stakeholder group
• A varied, hands‑on HR role with scope to influence
• A great opportunity to step into a senior advisory position
If you’re a proactive HR professional looking to make an impact in a collaborative, forward‑thinking organisation, we’d love to hear from you.
