The Employee Relations Team is a vital part of our HR department, supporting managers across the organisation with matters including conduct, capability, absence, redundancy and a wide range of other employee relations topics.

This is an ideal role for someone currently working in HR administration or HR support, who is working towards (or already has) a professional HR qualification-ideally CIPD Level 5-and is keen to gain deeper ER experience.

HR Operations
· Assisting advisers with case preparation and documentation.
· Maintaining and updating employee records.
· Providing advice on terms and conditions of employment.
Project Work
· Contributing to HR and operational projects as required, including policy development and process improvement.
What you’ll bring
We’re looking for someone who is eager to learn, confident in supporting others, and keen to build a solid foundation in employee relations.
Essential skills & experience:
· Experience in an HR Administrator, HR Assistant or HR Coordinator role.
· Confidence in advising managers on HR procedures and basic ER issues.
· Strong organisation and attention to detail.
· Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
· Competent user of MS Office and HR systems.
· CIPD Level 3 (or equivalent) and ideally working towards Level 5.
· A basic understanding of employment law principles and developments.
What we offer
