About the role

As our People Advisor , you’ll be a trusted partner to managers across the business, providing practical, commercially minded advice across the employee lifecycle. You’ll take ownership of a varied ER caseload, supporting everything from absence and performance through to disciplinary, grievance and organisational change.

This isn’t just about knowing policy. We’re looking for someone who can bring judgement, confidence and a human approach to sometimes complex situations. You’ll coach managers to handle people matters effectively, identify opportunities to improve how we work and play an active part in delivering our wider People Plan

• Coach managers through people processes, from preparing for conversations and meetings through to documentation and decision-making.
• Build manager capability by developing practical guidance, training and communications that make people processes easier to understand and apply.
• Provide advice across the wider employee lifecycle, including onboarding, probation, flexible working, family leave, employment changes and leavers.
• Work closely with our People Partners and People Operations team to create a joined-up, positive employee experience.
• Look for ways to make things better, identifying opportunities to improve our policies, processes, tools and ways of working.
