HR Advisor

Location: Black Country

Are you an ambitious HR Advisor ready to step into a role where you can truly own your space, influence day-to-day operations, and grow your career?

One of my clients is looking for a proactive, engagement focused HR Advisor to join their collaborative team. In this role, you’ll be at the center of people operations, acting as a trusted partner to managers, a champion for employees, and a key driver of workplace culture.

Why You’ll Love This Role

\n
• No two days will look the same. You will balance core HR operations with exciting, culture-shaping projects.
\n
• You will have the space to manage your own caseload and recruitment processes, backed by a supportive leadership team.
\n
• Beyond daily HR advisory work, you will collaborate on projects like employee wellbeing, diversity & inclusion, and workforce data analysis.
\n

What You’ll Be Doing

As our go-to HR champion, you’ll focus on the below:

\n
• Act as the first point of contact for day-to-day HR queries, offering expert guidance on policies, processes, and UK employment law.
\n
• Manage routine employee relations cases (absence, performance, grievances, and disciplinaries), guiding managers with confidence and escalating complex issues when needed.
\n
• Partner with management to implement organizational change, ensuring smooth, transparent communication across teams.
\n
• Coordinate the end-to-end recruitment journey: from drafting job descriptions and screening top talent to sitting on interview panels.
\n
• Own the onboarding experience, creating a seamless, welcoming "Day One" and beyond for every new hire (including right-to-work checks and system setup).
\n
• Manage HR data, compliance and payroll preparation data.
\n
• Track and analyse key metrics (turnover, absence, training) to provide leadership with actionable insights for workforce planning.
\n
• Champion employee engagement initiatives, including surveys, recognition programs, and wellness events.
\n

What You Bring to the Team

\n
• Proven experience in a dedicated HR Advisor or generalist role, with a solid understanding of UK employment law.
\n
• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills. You know how to handle sensitive situations with empathy, confidentiality, and professionalism.
\n
• Comfort managing HR information systems, tracking metrics, and ensuring accurate data for payroll and compliance.
\n
• A self-starter who looks at a process and thinks, "How can we make this better?"
