Summary
Are you an experienced HR professional who enjoys Employee Relations, manager support and solving real workplace challenges?
We’re looking for an
HR Advisor to join an established HR team within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
This is a hands-on operational HR role where you’ll be trusted to provide
practical, commercially focused HR advice to managers, manage your own Employee Relations caseload and ensure HR processes are handled accurately and consistently.
If you enjoy the variety of Employee Relations, like working through cases from start to finish and want to be part of a structured, forward-thinking HR function, this could be a great next step.
About the role
Working alongside a Lead HR Advisor and two HR Administrators, you'll play an important role in supporting managers and employees across the business.
You’ll manage a varied Employee Relations caseload, providing advice and guidance throughout the process and ensuring cases are dealt with fairly, consistently and in line with company policy, employment legislation and ACAS guidance.
Your responsibilities will include:
•
Advising managers on Employee Relations matters
•
Managing conduct and disciplinary cases
•
Supporting sickness absence and attendance management
•
Advising on performance management
•
Managing probationary matters
•
Supporting and managing grievances
•
Carrying out and supporting workplace investigations
•
Preparing for and supporting formal HR meetings
•
Producing accurate HR documentation and correspondence
•
Maintaining accurate case records and ensuring processes are followed
•
Managing your own caseload and competing priorities
•
Providing practical HR advice and guidance to managers
•
Working closely with the wider HR team to ensure a consistent approach
•
Supporting the smooth running of day-to-day operational HR
You’ll have the opportunity to manage cases from the initial issue through to resolution, making this a role where your
practical HR and Employee Relations experience will genuinely be used every day.
What are we looking for?
We’re looking for someone who already has a solid grounding in
operational HR and Employee Relations.
You'll ideally have:
•
CIPD Level 3 minimum, or be actively working towards it
•
Previous experience working as an
HR Advisor or HR Generalist
•
Strong hands-on Employee Relations experience
•
Experience managing disciplinary, grievance, absence and performance cases
•
A good working knowledge of UK employment legislation and ACAS guidance
•
The ability to apply HR knowledge confidently to real-life situations
•
Excellent attention to detail
•
Strong written communication skills
•
The ability to produce professional HR documentation
•
Excellent organisation and time management skills
•
The confidence to manage your own caseload
•
A methodical and consistent approach to policies and procedures
•
The ability to work independently while contributing positively to a small HR team
Experience within
manufacturing, logistics or another fast-paced operational environment would be particularly useful.
A modern, paperless HR environment
This is a
forward-thinking and highly systemised business. The HR function uses technology and automation wherever possible, including systems that manage departmental case workloads and an advanced time and attendance system with automated reporting.
That means less time spent on repetitive administration and more time focused on what really matters —
supporting managers, advising on Employee Relations and managing people cases effectively.
The HR team also operates within a clear and structured timetable, with regular weekly HR meetings and established processes already embedded within the business.
What type of person will fit the team?
This role would suit someone who is:
Calm. Organised. Practical. Methodical.
You'll be working in a relatively quiet, focused HR environment where people take pride in producing accurate, high-quality work.
You'll need to be comfortable working within clear processes, managing confidential information and staying focused when dealing with a busy caseload.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys
operational HR and Employee Relations.
This isn't an L&D or training-focused position, and there is no payroll responsibility. The focus is firmly on
HR advice, Employee Relations, policy, process and manager support.
Hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm
Location: On-site
Additional requirement: One Friday per month will be an early shift of
5:00am–1:00pm
Environment: Fast-paced 24/5 manufacturing operation
