Job description

Overview

Are You Actually Making A Difference In Your HR Role?

Or are you just pushing paper around while someone else makes the real decisions?

We are offering a complete blank canvass, an opportunity to build process and structure in your own way.

Not "stakeholder engagement" or "people enablement" or whatever corporate nonsense is trending this week. Real influence. Real impact. Real responsibility.

This is what's in it for you:

What’s in it for you

• Northampton, hybrid
• £50k basic plus benefits
• 23 days holiday
• Fully equipped on site gym

You'll build their HR function as they grow rather than inherit someone else's mess.

Think startup energy but with actual revenue and sensible management.

No committee meetings about having meetings. No policy documents that nobody reads. No "that's not how we've always done it here."

What you’ll do

The honest truth:

If you want to coast, this isn't for you. If you need everything mapped out in advance, probably not your thing. If you're looking for corporate structure with clear boundaries, keep scrolling.

But if you're frustrated that your current place talks about "people being our greatest asset" while treating them like spreadsheet entries, then we should talk.

If you want to work somewhere your recommendations actually get implemented, not filed in the "maybe later" pile, this could be perfect.

Feel like you've never had the opportunity to shape how you believe a HR strategy should be implemented.

Requirements

• What you need: CIPD Level 5+, experience building HR in growing businesses, and the confidence to make decisions without constant approval-seeking.
