Supporting the 4 HR/People Partners this is an advisory not administrative role and so your tiptop communication skills, credibility and ability to challenge and push back is of paramount importance.

This is a pure generalist role with specific focus on helping managers with any HR issues, such as performance, capability and some employee relations. There isn't a huge amount of ER/grievance & disciplinary as people enjoy working there and engagement is high.
The company is going through a period of growth, so the desire to grow and develop as the company grows would be ideal.

Person Specification:

Preferably with a degree and CIPD full or part qualified.
Evidence of having added value in an HR role within a fast paced private sector organization.
Proactive with buckets of positive energy and always wanting to go the extra mile.
Articulate with the credibility to influence within a high intellect, creative environment.
