HR Consultant
Location: Yorkshire / Remote working
Salary: £35K – £40K (DOE)
Hours: Monday – Friday; 37.5 hours per week
About Our Client
Our client is not your typical HR consultancy. In just over 2.5 years, they’ve partnered with more than 70 businesses across the UK, supporting them across the full employee lifecycle from hiring and onboarding to compliance, systems, and culture.
They take the stress out of people management by combining practical, commercial advice with a fresh, tech-first approach. Think less corporate red tape, more real-world solutions that actually work for businesses.
What sets them apart? They are approachable, modern, and reliable, delivering HR support that feels practical and relevant, not like a box-ticking exercise.
They are also a fast-growing consultancy with ambitious plans. That means new opportunities, exciting projects, and the chance to grow with them as they scale.
The Role
Our client is looking for a Human Resources Consultant to join their growing team. This is a permanent role with plenty of variety and scope. You’ll be home-based most of the time, but they are looking for someone based in Yorkshire so you can support local clients and join regular team meetings and networking events. There will also be occasional travel to clients across the UK.
This role is a great fit for:
* In-house HR professionals ready to make the move into consultancy and gain variety, autonomy, and client exposure.
* Current consultants who are looking for an opportunity to help shape and expand a growing consultancy while bringing their own experience to the table.
No two days are the same. One day you might be guiding a client through a complex ER case, the next you could be implementing a new HR system, running an engagement survey, or shaping company culture.
What They’re Looking For
They are not just after technical HR expertise (though that’s important). They are looking for someone who’s:
* Friendly and approachable – Clients should feel comfortable picking up the phone to you.
* Open-minded and modern – Willing to do things differently and take a tech-first approach.
* Confident – Able to hold your own with business leaders and owners, giving strong advice (that they often don't want to hear) in a supportive, solutions-focused way.
* Commercially minded – Balancing compliance with what makes sense for the business.
* Organised and proactive – Capable of managing multiple clients in a remote-first environment.
What You’ll Be Doing
Client Advisory & Relationships:
* Act as the primary HR contact for your portfolio of clients.
* Provide pragmatic, solutions-focused advice that balances compliance with business needs.
* Confidently lead sensitive conversations with clients and employees.
* Represent our client externally through networking and events.
* Spot opportunities to add value and support business growth.
Employee Lifecycle Support:
* Guide clients through recruitment, onboarding, performance, engagement, and exit.
* Help shape onboarding programmes, performance management processes, and engagement surveys.
* Support clients to create great employee experiences at every stage.
Employee Relations:
* Lead on complex ER cases, from disciplinaries to absence management.
* Provide expert advice on UK employment law and risk management.
* Draft and review contracts, handbooks, and policies.
* Carry out HR compliance audits.
HR Systems & Process Improvement:
* Support HR system implementation and help clients use tech effectively.
* Review and improve processes for efficiency and consistency.
* Keep accurate, compliant records.
* Share ideas to improve how they work too – they love fresh thinking.
What You’ll Bring
* CIPD Level 5/7 (or equivalent experience).
* Strong generalist HR background, ideally across the full employee lifecycle.
* Solid ER case management experience.
* Employment law knowledge and policy writing expertise.
* Tech-savvy, with experience in HR systems.
* Commercially minded, confident, and solutions focused.
* Able to juggle multiple clients while staying approachable and supportive.
What’s In It For You?
They ask a lot, but they give plenty back:
* Be part of a fast-growing consultancy – Join at the right time and grow with them.
* Remote-first working – They believe work should fit around life, not the other way round.
* Great tech – They’ll kit you out with the tools you love.
* 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays) – Because time off matters.
* Variety and exposure – Work across different industries, challenges, and projects.
* A supportive team culture – Open, collaborative, and a bit different from the usual HR crowd.
