HR Advisor

Location: Staffordshire-based / Home-based with regular UK site travel
Salary: 38,000 - 42,000 + car allowance + benefits
Working Pattern: Monday to Friday, 37.5 hours per week, with flexibility required for site support

A growing multi-site operational business is looking to appoint an experienced HR Advisor to support a number of sites across the UK.

This is a hands-on, business-facing role where you'll be trusted to provide practical HR support to managers across a busy operational environment. You'll be involved in a broad mix of employee relations, performance, recruitment, workforce planning and people projects, giving you real variety day-to-day.

It would suit someone who enjoys getting close to the business, building strong relationships with managers, and being visible across different sites rather than sitting in a purely desk-based HR role.

• Genuine variety across a multi-site operation
• Home-based role with regular travel to UK sites
• Broad generalist HR exposure across ER, recruitment, change and engagement
• Autonomy in your day-to-day work, with support from an experienced HR Manager

As HR Advisor, you'll provide consistent, practical HR support across multiple sites while adapting your approach to the needs of each location.

You'll manage a range of employee relations matters, including absence, disciplinary, grievance, performance and capability cases, while coaching managers to handle people issues confidently and fairly.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Managing ER cases and advising managers through formal processes
• Supporting investigations, hearings and performance conversations
• Providing clear guidance on HR policies, procedures and employment law
• Supporting recruitment, onboarding, workforce planning and wider HR projects

You'll likely already be working in an HR Advisor, People Advisor or similar generalist HR role, ideally within a fast-paced, operational, manufacturing, FMCG, logistics or multi-site environment.

You'll be confident managing ER cases end-to-end, comfortable working with managers at different levels, and able to balance consistency with a practical, site-by-site approach.

We're looking for someone who can bring:

• Experience in a generalist HR role
• Strong employee relations experience
• Confidence advising and coaching managers
• CIPD Level 5, working towards, or equivalent hands-on experience

Experience working with complex employee relations matters across operational sites would also be advantageous.

This is a great opportunity for an HR Advisor who wants more variety, more visibility and the chance to make a real impact across a multi-site operational business.
