Use people data and insight to drive business performance.
Support talent, succession and leadership initiatives.

What you’ll bring

Proven experience in a People Partner, HR Business Partner or Senior HR Generalist role.
Strong UK employment law and employee relations expertise.
Experience managing complex casework and organisational change initiatives.
The confidence to influence leaders and challenge constructively
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

If you're passionate about creating high-performing teams, developing great leaders and delivering meaningful people solutions, we'd love to hear from you. Join us and help build a workplace where people and performance thrive.
