  • Identifying talent and supporting succession planning and career development.
  • Supporting recruitment, onboarding and employee engagement initiatives.
  • Producing and analysing People metrics to support business decisions.
  • Contributing to compliance, ESG and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Keeping the business ahead of changes in employment legislation and HR best practice.


About You

  • Broad and varied HR Business Partner role.
  • Genuine opportunity to influence business strategy.
  • Supportive leadership team.
  • Long-term career development.
  • A collaborative culture where your ideas and expertise will be valued.
