Role: HR Manager - Dartford
This role is ideal for someone who wants to lead a full HR function and shape how people and culture develop within a growing organisation. It combines strategic thinking with hands-on involvement, giving the HR Manager genuine influence across the business.
The position centres on providing practical, commercially minded HR support to managers and employees while ensuring the company has strong, consistent people processes. The HR Manager leads the HR team and also oversees Health & Safety and Hospitality teams, so it suits someone who enjoys a broad remit and cross-functional collaboration.
A key aspect of the role is partnering with managers-guiding them, coaching them, and helping them take ownership of people management. You'll shape HR strategy, improve organisational capability, and develop policies, tools and processes that keep the organisation compliant, aligned, and operating smoothly. This includes recruitment planning, employee development, performance management, and supporting leadership teams with organisational change, restructures, and employee relations matters.
The role offers variety: from day-to-day people support, to broader cultural initiatives, to contributing to wider HR projects with the group's international headquarters.
