HRBP - 14-month Maternity Cover Contract Experience

To be successful in this role, you will need to be able to demonstrate previous expertise in generalist HR support, with experience in a commercial and entrepreneurial environment (rather than government or academic).

You will have sound knowledge of UK employment law, with the ability to apply it confidently in day-to-day and more complex ER situations. You must have proven experience managing HR activities and projects involving multiple stakeholders.

You will have excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities effectively. You will have the ability to analyse people-related data and present insights clearly to support decision-making. Strong relationship-building skills, with the confidence to influence and advise at all levels, will be essential, and you will be comfortable using HR systems and digital tools; experience with SuccessFactors is a plus.

You will have a growth mindset, be future-focused, and resilient. You will be empathetic and fair in your approach and possess good judgement. You will have experience of facilitating staff training.

If you have worked within a chemical or scientific environment, this would be advantageous and preferred. You will have a proven record of influencing and developing leaders.

This role could suit a Junior HRBP looking to gain more exposure, but you must be able to hit the ground running and add value, and bring in best practice in your work. If you have more senior level experience, you must be prepared to do the hands-on transactional/ operational HR duties as there will be no strategic leadership in this contract role.

CIPD qualification desirable but proven HR Business Partnering experience is more important.

You must be able to start in October for a handover with the person going on maternity leave.
