Job description

Job Description

At Healix International, we protect what matters most. Our work is grounded in care, independent thinking and earning the trust of our clients and colleagues every day.

We're seeking an experienced People Partner to join our People Team. This is a hands-on role for an HR professional who enjoys working at pace, building strong relationships with leaders and managing complex people challenges in an international environment.

As Healix continues to grow globally, you'll support leaders across multiple businesses, functions and locations, helping to build high-performing teams while delivering practical, commercially focused people solutions.

About the Role

As a trusted advisor to leaders, you'll combine strategic partnering with operational delivery. You'll manage complex employee relations matters, support organisational change, strengthen leadership capability and help deliver our People Strategy.

This role requires resilience, sound judgement and the ability to manage changing priorities while maintaining a high standard of service and employee experience.

What You’ll Bring

You will ideally have:

Experience as an HR Business Partner, People Partner or senior HR generalist.
Strong employee relations expertise, including disciplinary, grievance, performance, capability and absence management.
Sound knowledge of UK employment law.
Experience supporting organisational change and transformation.
The ability to influence and build credibility with senior stakeholders.
Strong judgement, coaching and problem-solving skills.
Experience using people data and insights to support decision-making.
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
Experience working in a complex or international environment.
Understanding of visa and immigration processes.
CIPD Level 5 or above, or equivalent experience.

We recognise that strong candidates bring different combinations of experience and encourage applications from those who meet most, but not all, of the criteria.

Is This You?

You'll be successful in this role if you:

Enjoy autonomy and accountability.
Thrive in a fast-paced, varied environment.
Can balance strategic thinking with operational delivery.
Remain calm when priorities change.
Build strong relationships and influence effectively.
Enjoy working across cultures, locations and time zones.
Focus on achieving outcomes rather than simply providing advice.

Company Culture

Instead, we focus on ensuring our highly trained specialists have the space and time they need to be effective. We let them use their initiative to get the job done, because the situations they face often throw up unexpected challenges – and no protocol survives contact with the real world.

Our clients have thousands of employees and customers, at home and abroad, so they need a business big enough to handle any situation. But they chose Healix because they also need an organisation that’s personal enough to care.

Our people are driven to do things in the best way, not the way they have always been done. We work hard, and our efforts are rewarded with great development opportunities and a supportive team spirit.

We want to nurture this friendly and dynamic company culture so that we can continue to attract diverse talent with a breadth of knowledge and world-class skills. As a part of Healix, you can expect a range of excellent benefits and an environment where people really do care.
