If you have solid experience in employee relations and enjoy supporting managers through the everyday challenges of people management, this fixed-term role offers an opportunity to make a real impact.
At St Monica Trust, we’re looking for a confident and capable HR Advisor to join our established HR team and focus on casework. Whether it’s absence management, grievances, disciplinaries or performance issues, your calm, informed guidance will help our managers handle situations fairly and consistently.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll be a trusted point of contact for HR advice, offering practical and empathetic support to managers across our care, housing and support services.
You’ll:
* Lead on a range of employee relations casework, ensuring timely and fair outcomes
* Guide and coach managers to handle people matters with clarity and confidence
* Support investigations and formal processes, including note-taking where needed
* Advise on HR policies, procedures and employment law in a clear and accessible way
* Help maintain an inclusive, values-led culture across the Trust
This is a focused and defined opportunity for someone who enjoys ER work and wants to contribute meaningfully without distractions.
What you’ll get in return
Joining St Monica Trust means becoming part of a values-led organisation where people are at the heart of everything we do. Aside from a competitive salary, you’ll also benefit from:
* A supportive, inclusive workplace that values your expertise
* Autonomy and trust to deliver your work well — with the team around you when needed
* Flexible working arrangements (including reduced hours)
* The opportunity to make a difference in a purpose-driven organisation
* A chance to make a real difference in the lives of older people
What you’ll bring
You’ll have the knowledge, experience and confidence to step into this role and start making a difference quickly — with support to get to know our systems and ways of working. You’ll bring:
* A proven track record of experience in a generalist HR advisory role
* A strong background in employee relations casework
* Solid understanding of UK employment law and how to apply it in practice
* Experience supporting and coaching managers at all levels
* A calm, people-focused approach and a collaborative mindset
* CIPD Level 3 (or above) or equivalent experience
Experience in a care or regulated environment is welcome, but not essential.
Why this role is for you
You bring balanced judgment, empathy and confidence — and you enjoy helping others navigate the challenges of managing people. You understand the importance of getting things right, and know how much positive HR input matters in daily working life.
This role offers the chance to use your experience where it’s most needed, in a team that values integrity, trust and inclusion.
Apply today — and use your experience to make a meaningful impact.
