If you love variety, thrive on building trusted relationships, and want your work to truly matter — this could be the perfect next step. You'll be the heartbeat of their HR function, supporting managers and colleagues with everything from recruitment and onboarding to employee relations and compliance. You'll also be a key voice in shaping a positive, inclusive culture where people feel supported, heard, and empowered.

What You'll Be Doing

• Acting as the first point of contact for HR queries across the business
• Managing recruitment campaigns, interviews, and onboarding
• Supporting employee relations, absence management, and performance reviews
• Preparing contracts, offer letters, and HR documentation
• Ensuring policies are applied consistently and legally
• Liaising with external legal partners on complex HR matters
• Championing engagement, wellbeing, and retention initiatives

What You'll Bring

• Solid experience in a generalist HR or HR/recruitment support role
• A good grasp of UK employment law and HR best practices
• Strong communication skills and a warm, approachable style
• Confidence working independently and juggling priorities
• CIPD qualification (or working towards) is a bonus
• Experience in construction, engineering, or similar sectors is helpful but not essential

What's in It for You

• A competitive salary circa £45,000
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Company pension scheme
• Supportive leadership and a collaborative team culture
• The chance to shape HR practices and make a genuine difference
