There's nothing beige about McCain
Except our potatoes — and we're extremely passionate about them.

When you join McCain, you'll be joining the biggest player in the frozen potato game, bringing people together around the nation for over 60 years by sharing simple, delicious planet friendly food.

We've partnered with thousands of the country's supermarkets, pubs, restaurants, hospitals, and schools to change the way people see the humble spud.

It's all about elevation and creating something better.

So, come and make your career at McCain Foods.

ABOUT THE ROLE.
We have ambitious growth business plans at McCain, but we can't achieve those without our people.

Our HR team play a huge part in driving our winning culture and it's the role of our HR Specialist to get under the skin of the people behind the potatoes.

Working as part of a wider HR team you will support and oversee the day-to-day HR Employee Life Cycle Processes across our demanding Scarborough and Hull Manufacturing Plants as well as our Head Office departments across several different business areas.

This will include

Working in partnership with People leaders to drive a continuous improvement mindset to enable the everyday engagement of their teams
Overseeing and advising People Leaders and Employees with Employee and Labor relations issues including overseeing the employee absence process
Managing talent and succession with a strong focus on attracting, recruiting, and selecting the best talent
Working in partnership with the HRBP's and our leader to be an ambassador of driving diversity, equity, and inclusion
Supporting regional implementation of CoEdriven processes, policies, and initiatives.
Analysing the data available through our Global Employee Self Service Support Platform (HRNow/ServiceNow), to identify trends and take insight driven actions. Whilst striving to continually improve the content to enhance the employee experience.
Reviewing and supporting the development of our HR Procedures, to ensure compliance with legislative updates and best practice changes. Whilst playing a key role in the coordination of the HR aspects in Audits.

We are a team of connectedness - which means you will create impactful relationships between local HR Specialist and our Global Employee Experience Centre to provide a world class service to our employees.

And because we have a one team approach you will also have the opportunity to 'chip in' and partner with other departments outside of your normal business areas.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to springboard their career into HR Business Partner in a high performing business and team.

As well as a breadth of HR experience working in a fast-paced environment you'll also have experience of managing people priorities across multiple sites and business areas.

We're looking for a CIPD level 5 qualified HR professional or equivalent as well as...

Comprehensive HR policy and process knowledge
Extensive Employee Relations experience with strong knowledge of employmentrelated laws and regulations
Strong ability to effectively communicate verbally and in writing with impact and handle confidential information
Proven teamwork capabilities; strong relationship management and interpersonal skills
Strong business acumen coupled with project management and analytical skills
HR Project delivery with a Continuous Improvement Mindset
Working knowledge of HR systems, particularly SuccessFactors and Service Now

WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?
You'll be pleased to know we don't pay you in 'chips'.

As well as a competitive salary we also have some 'a-peeling' benefits including:

A generous car allowance plus business miles expensed
Achievable personal and business performancebased bonus
Private single medical insurance scheme
A great pension plan — and we'll pay double what you do, up to a maximum of 12% of your pay
Flexible holidays — with the option to buy & sell up to 5 extra days per year

- 'Chips In' Volunteering Day Off — to make a positive impact in McCain communities across the globe

Optional health cash plan
Cycle to work scheme
Opportunities to relocate in the future — we're a worldwide business, so the opportunities are there for those who seek them

WHERE WILL I WORK?

You will mostly be based in our Whittlesey Plant however you will also cover our Grantham and Wombourne plant, splitting your time across the three plants as the business demands.

We also recognise that being in the office every single day is a thing of the past.

Here at McCain, we champion hybrid working so there may be times where it is convenient for you to be able to work from home.

WE ARE INCLUSIVE.
