Senior Human Resources Advisor

Senior HR Advisor | £40K | Southend | Hybrid

It's an opportunity to join a growing business where you'll have the chance to influence managers, shape people initiatives and drive change

If you're currently an HR Advisor looking for that next step this could be exactly what you've been waiting for.

What you'll be doing

You'll work closely with managers across the business, becoming their trusted HR partner and helping them navigate everything from employee relations and performance management to organisational change and workforce planning.

No two days are the same. One day you'll be coaching managers through complex ER cases. The next you'll be analysing HR data, supporting reward reviews, improving employee engagement or delivering projects that genuinely make a difference. This is a role where you'll be encouraged to challenge, influence and bring ideas to the table, not simply follow process.

You'll also bring:

\n
• Solid employee relations experience (absence, disciplinary, grievance and performance)
\n
• A good understanding of UK employment law
\n
• Confidence partnering with managers at all levels
\n
• Experience using HR systems and interpreting people data
\n
• A proactive mindset with a genuine passion for improving the employee experience
