Senior People Advisor

We're seeking someone with a solid foundation in HR who’s confident managing the day-to-day while also comfortable getting into the detail of broader HR projects. You may already be in an HR Advisor role and looking to gain wider generalist exposure. A CIPD qualification at Level 5 (or equivalent experience) is preferred. Beyond that, we’d love to see:

• Prior experience in a generalist HR role – with good exposure to ER and policies. 
• A good knowledge of UK employment law
• Experience with processes improvement and taking ownership of these including creating new ones should the need arise
• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
• Great attention to detail, especially when it comes to documentation and data
• A proactive, people-first mindset. We want someone who spots what needs doing and jumps in
• Confidence using HRIS systems and Excel/Google Sheets for reporting
• Clear communication skills, whether you’re writing a policy update, interpreting HR data, or chatting through a flexible working request
• A caring but professional demeanour with the ability to earn people’s trust and handle sensitive situations
• Strong organisation and prioritisation skills. You’ll be working on a lot of different things at any one time and it’s important you know what to prioritise and when
• Experience in a fast-paced, commercial environment such as tech or agency would be a real plus
