Reporting directly to the Head of HR and working closely with site leadership, you will lead all day-to-day people operations across the Dublin restaurant.

Monitor break entitlements and ensure adherence to working time regulations.
• Employee Relations & Manager Coaching: Lead end-to-end ER casework (performance, conduct, grievances, absence, probation) with consistency, fairness, and commercial acumen. Coach and empower site managers in people leadership and maintain the Ireland-specific HR People Management Toolkit.
• Payroll & Systems Oversight: Oversee the fortnightly payroll and tronc processes in close collaboration with the central payroll team. Maintain system data integrity across platforms like Timepoint, ensuring all starter/leaver updates and leave records are accurate.
• Recruitment, Onboarding & Training: Partner with hiring managers and central recruitment on local staffing needs. Lead an engaging onboarding and probation experience, and coordinate ongoing staff development and training initiatives (e.g., via Thrive).
• Statutory Family Leave & Well-being: Manage all statutory leave processes (maternity, paternity, parental, adoptive leave) and act as the supportive point of contact throughout the employee journey.
• Culture, Engagement & People Metrics: Drive local employee engagement, wellbeing initiatives, recognition, and internal communications. Track and analyse monthly HR metrics (turnover, absence, ER trends) to inform operational decisions.

What We Are Looking For

• Experience: Proven track record in an HR Manager, People Manager, or standalone generalist role with full ownership of employee relations and day-to-day HR operations.
• Irish Employment Law: Strong, up-to-date knowledge of Irish employment legislation, statutory processes, and WRC inspection standards.
• ER Expertise: Hands-on experience independently managing ER cases across conduct, performance, absence, and grievance procedures.
• Systems & Data: Practical experience with HR/workforce management systems (e.g., Harri, Timepoint, Thrive, or similar), and comfortable monitoring key HR metrics.
• Working Style: Ability to operate autonomously in a fast-paced environment, balance competing priorities, and build trusted relationships with managers and staff alike.
• Qualifications & Industry (Advantageous): Previous HR experience within hospitality, retail, or fast-paced operational environments is a distinct plus, as is CIPD accreditation (Level 5 or working towards).
