Travelling to regional offices to support managers and teams
Managing end‑to‑end recruitment, onboarding and induction
Preparing contracts, offer letters and new starter documentation
Coordinating payroll and benefits with internal teams
Maintaining accurate HR records and producing reports for senior leadership

Conducting investigations and guiding managers through formal processes
Managing exit interviews and offboarding
Advising on GDPR and data protection
Keeping HR policies updated and aligned with legislation
Designing and delivering training resources
Establishing and managing an apprenticeship programme
Leading HR projects including succession planning and organisational change

Experienced Senior HR generalist /advisory background
Strong background in recruitment, employee relations and multi‑site HR delivery
Solid understanding of UK employment law and HR best practice
Comfortable producing HR reports and using HRIS systems
Excellent communication, coaching and relationship‑building skills
Strong problem‑solving ability with sound judgment and discretion
