Looking for greater responsibility, and want to fully utilise your expertise? Our HR Advisor role may be for you!
We’re looking for a purposeful and motivated HR Advisor to join our team, educating and coaching Managers on Best Practice, ER, HR Processes and Compliance, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I).
Please be advised this role is fully onsite.
About the RoleThis HR Advisor role is essentially standalone with support from the wider Group HR team. You will be situated in Ellesmere Port with occasional travel to our Grantham site (NG32 3HL).
You will act as the main HR point of contact for both sites, ensuring HR systems are accurate, capturing and monitoring employee documentation as required.
Your day to day will involve: ER, Absence Management, Recruitment and Onboarding, Occupational Health, KPI Monitoring, HR Administration, and assisting with Payroll.
Employee Relations:
You’ll assist with disciplinary and grievance procedures (including appeals), attending ER meetings as a notetaker, active HR voice, and coach, stepping in when necessary to ensure a fair, consistent, and objective process. You’ll also issue the appropriate letters to employees (e.g. meeting invitations, outcome letters, etc.), maintaining these to ensure compliance and suitability.
We’ll need you to assist in welfare meetings when they occur, guiding our Managers appropriately on the most suitable approach.
Talent Acquisition, Onboarding and Probation:
You will assist recruitment of Grantham and Ellesmere Port roles, liaising with the Group Talent Acquisition Specialist on role allocation. This includes candidate sifting, liaising with 3rd party suppliers, generating and issuing offers of employment and providing information to New Starters.
You’ll have the privilege of leading an engaging HR induction for New Starters at our Grantham site, issuing Onboarding surveys and monitoring participation/results.
HR Records & Documentation:
The HR Advisor will ensure employees' details are accurately captured within the system. You'll also issue access cards to Contractors and access fobs to New Starters.
Occasionally, you’ll need to run reports on the system, therefore Microsoft Excel skills would be a benefit.
