About The Role
Location: Southampton. Full-Time (8:30-4:30).
Hybrid (approx 2 days/week in office). Salary: £35,000+ DOE.
HR Advisor (Southampton – Hybrid)
£35,000+ | Immediate Start | Growing Care Group
Are you an experienced HR Advisor who can hit the ground running in a fast-paced, evolving business?
We’re looking for a confident, hands‑on HR professional to join our small but ambitious HR team, supporting a growing domiciliary and supported living organisation. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership, build your experience across complex HR work, and play a key role in our growth journey.
The Role
This is not a “sit back and be told what to do” role.
You’ll be working closely with the HR Director and Group HR Manager, managing a varied and high‑volume workload across:
* Employee relations casework (disciplinaries, grievances, absence, performance)
* Supporting branch managers with day‑to‑day HR advice
* TUPE transfers (in and out) linked to local authority contracts
* Acquisition and post‑acquisition integration work
* Restructures, consultations and communications
* Policy reviews and improving HR processes
You’ll be the go‑to person for operational HR support, working in a true advisory capacity across multiple sites. This is a hands‑on, operational role supporting a growing multi‑site business.
Why this role?
* Be part of a rapidly growing organisation with multiple acquisitions planned this year
* Gain exposure to TUPE, M&A and large‑scale change projects
* Work in a lean HR team where your impact is visible immediately
* Opportunity to shape processes and build structure as we grow
* Develop into a more senior role as the team expands
* 33 days inclusive of bank holidays annual leave
* Flexibility in working hours and hybrid working
What we’re looking for
CIPD Level 3 is essential but Level 5 is desirable.
We need someone who:
* Has solid HR Advisor experience and can manage casework independently
* Is confident dealing with complex ER issues with minimal supervision
* Is a self‑starter – you don’t wait to be told what to do
* Thrives in a busy, high‑volume environment
* Is happy to roll up their sleeves and do everything from admin to complex cases
* Has strong attention to detail and excellent organisational skills
* Is calm, resilient and solutions‑focused
Experience in TUPE, care sector, or multi‑site environments would be a big advantage.
This is a role for someone who wants to step up, get stuck in, and be part of something growing.
If you’re looking for a structured, slow‑paced environment this probably isn’t for you.
If you want variety, ownership and real impact then we’d love to hear from you.
