Job description

Senior HR Consultant (Part-time, three days per week)

Emphasis is a leading privately owned HR consultancy, established in 2003. We're a dynamic team of eight, based in Romsey, Hampshire, driven by the mission to empower businesses to thrive through their people. We partner with clients to develop robust HR strategies, build strong workforces, and create positive organisational cultures.

As our client portfolio expands across London and the South Coast, we're seeking a Senior HR Consultant to provide expert, hands-on HR support and strategic advice. The role offers a hybrid work model, with time at our Romsey office (usually Tuesday and Wednesday) and client visits mainly across Hampshire, London, and the South Coast. Occasional overnight stays may be required.

This role requires a flexible, proactive approach to delivering comprehensive HR solutions. You will manage a portfolio of clients covering all aspects of employment.

The ideal candidate will be a CIPD-qualified HR professional with significant senior or consulting-level HR experience, comfortable working autonomously in a demanding environment.

A car and a current UK driving license are essential. A good sense of humor is important, as the role can be challenging. You will be in regular contact with the supportive Emphasis team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing consultancy where your expertise will impact diverse businesses. You will work collaboratively with a high degree of autonomy and have opportunities for continuous development.

We celebrate individuality and are committed to building inclusive, diverse teams. Our culture is rooted in collaboration, encouraging everyone to bring their authentic selves, share their voices, and feel a genuine sense of belonging.

We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds, experiences, and identities.

As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate based on age, disability, gender identity or expression, marital status, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation. Please inform us if you require any adjustments during the recruitment process.
