The People Partner role is to support depot operations across our regional network. You'll work closely with the Regional Director on workforce planning and with individual Depot Managers on day-to-day people matters — from employee relations to performance and engagement. This is a hands-on, multi-site role for someone who's comfortable traveling across a depot network, building strong relationships with depot-level leadership, and flexing between regional strategy and on-the-ground problem solving.

• Act as the primary HR point of contact for the Regional Directors, translating regional business priorities (volume, SLA, cost targets) into people plans

• Partner with Depot Managers at each site to support their day-to-day people needs and local workforce challenges

• Attend Regional leadership meetings and Depot management meetings, bringing an HR perspective to operational decisions

• Build strong, trusted relationships with Service Delivery/Depot Managers so they see HR as embedded in their team, not a remote function

• Work with the Regional Director on headcount planning and resourcing across depots, including seasonal/peak staffing

• Support talent reviews and succession planning for Service Delivery/Depot Managers and Team Leaders across the region

• Identify and support internal mobility opportunities between depots

• Handle and resolve employee relations issues across all depots: conflicts, grievances, disciplinary actions, investigations

• Coach and upskill Service Delivery/Depot Managers on performance management, difficult conversations, and consistent policy application

• Ensure fair, consistent HR practices across depots, flagging and addressing inconsistencies to the Regional Director

• Drive performance management cycles with Regional Directors covering Service Delivery Managers and Team leaders.

• Monitor regional engagement, absenteeism, and turnover metrics by depot; identify trends and outliers

• Partner with the Regional Director on retention strategies for depots with higher-than-average turnover

• Ensure consistent compliance with employment legislation and working time regulations across all depots in the region

• Partner with Service Delivery/Depot Managers and H&S teams on incident investigations, return-to-work processes, and safety culture

• Support the Regional Director in rolling out organizational changes across depots: shift redesigns, depot openings/closures, restructures, automation

• Equip Depot Managers to communicate change effectively to frontline teams

• Act as a change agent during regional initiatives, ensuring consistent adoption across sites
