Are you an experienced HR Advisor looking to take the next step into an HR Business Partner role? Or are you already operating at HRBP level and looking for your next opportunity?

We're working with an established organisation in Northampton that is looking for an HR Business Partner to join their team on a 12-14 month fixed-term contract, providing cover for maternity leave.

This is a hands-on, generalist HR role where you'll work closely with managers across the business, providing practical HR advice and support across the full employee lifecycle.

  • Working closely with the wider HR team on ongoing projects and initiatives

You could be:

  • An experienced HR Advisor looking for their first HRBP opportunity
  • An established HR Business Partner looking for a fixed-term position
  • An HR professional who has already started taking on more strategic or partnering responsibilities within their current role

You'll need strong knowledge of generalist HR and employee relations, alongside the confidence to work directly with managers and provide practical, commercially focused advice.
