At our client, people are at the heart of everything they do. They're looking for an HR Advisor who thrives on building strong relationships, enjoys being part of a team, and isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves and get involved in the detail.

This is more than a traditional advisory role. It's about being visible, accessible and practical.

You’ll partner closely with managers, becoming a trusted source of advice and support, while also playing a key role in keeping the organisation's HR processes running smoothly behind the scenes.

• Build strong, collaborative relationships with managers, supporting them to confidently manage people issues
• Provide clear, pragmatic HR advice across the full employee lifecycle
• Be actively involved in casework – from absence and wellbeing conversations through to investigations and formal processes
• Take ownership of end‑to‑end recruitment, ensuring a safe, thorough and positive candidate experience
• Keep on top of the organisation's HR administration that keeps it running – from contracts and letters to systems updates and compliance checks
• Support wider HR initiatives such as training, policy development and projects

You’ll be someone who enjoys the balance of partnering with people and delivering detail-focused work.

• CIPD Level 5 (or working towards) or equivalent experience
• Experience in a busy, generalist HR environment
• Confidence in building relationships and supporting managers with real-world HR challenges
• Strong knowledge of employment law and HR best practice
• A practical, organised approach – comfortable juggling priorities while maintaining accuracy
• A team player who is equally comfortable working independently

• Be part of a values‑driven organisation making a real difference
• Work in a supportive team where your contribution is recognised
• Gain exposure to a wide range of HR activity, building your experience and skills
• Opportunities for professional development and growth

Working for our client isn't just a job – it's the chance to be part of something truly meaningful.

They offer:

• 33 days' holiday plus bank holidays (rising with service)
• Enhanced sick pay (up to 6 months full pay)
• Pension scheme with 7% employer contribution
• Enhanced maternity/adoption pay and family-friendly policies
• Occupational health, wellbeing support and Employee Assistance Programme
• Life assurance scheme
• Ongoing training and development opportunities
• Commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility
• A supportive, inclusive and values-driven workplace

Our client is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and all employees must apply for an enhanced disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service. They welcome applications from all sections of the community.
