Senior HR Business Partner - Interim

Interim Senior HR Business Partner | Group Transformation | Manufacturing

We’re supporting a global manufacturing business on an urgent transformation programme and are looking for a high calibre Interim Senior HR Business Partner to lead organisational redesign activity across multiple group functions.

This is a critical interim assignment for someone who has delivered large-scale operating model transformation within complex manufacturing environments and can quickly establish credibility with senior stakeholders.

Working across the UK, Europe and North America, you’ll support a major group transformation programme spanning IT, Finance, Operations and HR.

The focus is on organisational redesign and implementation — redefining roles and responsibilities, mapping current talent into future-state structures, and constructively challenging leaders on organisation design decisions.

This is a hands‑on interim role requiring pace, pragmatism and resilience. The environment is operational, fast‑moving and commercially driven, so previous manufacturing experience is essential.

• Proven track record as an Interim Senior HR Business Partner within transformation/change programmes
• Strong manufacturing sector background essential
• Structural redesign
• Role clarity and accountability mapping
• Talent/workforce mapping
• Senior stakeholder engagement and challenge
• Comfortable operating in ambiguous, evolving environments
• Able to balance strategic input with hands‑on execution
• Initial 6-month interim assignment
• UK or Europe base preferred
• International travel required across UK, Europe and North America
• Applicants need to be immediately or imminently available
