We’re 1st Central, a market-leading insurance company utilising smart data and technology h has been based on giving our 1.4 million customers exactly what they want: great value insurance with an excellent service. And that’s the same for our colleagues too; we won Insurance Employer of the Year at the British Insurance Awards 2024 and our Glassdoor score is pretty mega too!

We’re on the hunt for a driven HR Advisor who’s ready to jump in, make a difference, and bring fresh energy to our supportive team.

In this pivotal role, you’ll deliver high-quality, centralised support to our HR Business Partners, Head of HR, and teams across the business, playing a key role in how we manage, support, and empower our people.

You’ll be the trusted source for consistent and compliant HR advice, championing fair policies, effective people management, and smooth processes across the organisation with a strong record in managing ER cases (disciplinary, grievance, absence, performance). Collaboration is at the core of what we do, and your ability to engage stakeholders and work closely with colleagues will help drive positive outcomes and bring HR strategies and projects to life.

Core skills we’re looking for to succeed in the role:

HR Expertise: You’ll bring solid generalist HR experience, with a strong background in employee relations and case management. A CIPD Level 3 qualification (or higher) would be a bonus—but it’s not essential.

Communication & Influence:
You’ll have excellent written and verbal communication skills and feel confident engaging with stakeholders at all levels to build trust and drive meaningful outcomes.

Organisation & Detail: You’ll know how to prioritise, stay organised, and juggle multiple tasks. With a sharp eye for detail, you’ll spot the small things that make a big difference.

Teamwork & Initiative: You’re a collaborative team player with a proactive mindset, ready to roll up your sleeves, bring the energy, and support wherever it’s needed.

Tech Savvy:
You’re comfortable using MS Office, especially Excel and PowerPoint, to present data and ideas in a clear, compelling way. You’ll have experience using Workday, or another HRIS system.

Problem Solving & Customer Focus: You’re a logical thinker who thrives on solving challenges, and you’re passionate about delivering great service with a people-first approach.

We’re big on flexible working. You’ll primarily work from home, with one day a week in the office, either in Haywards Heath, West Sussex or Salford Quays, Manchester. Prefer more time on-site? That’s totally fine too.
