We are supporting a growing, UK-headquartered, multi-site organisation in the search for a hands on HR Business Partner to play a pivotal role in shaping people strategy while remaining involved with the generalist delivery.
This is a true lead-from-the-front role. You will work closely with the Managing Director, and the Head of People, and partner daily with the senior leadership team across finance, marketing, operations, and commercial functions.
The business employs circa 100 UK employees, split between head office and field-based teams, and continues to grow. As such, this role requires someone who is equally comfortable setting direction and rolling their sleeves up, they envision that this role will grow with the business.

- Travel: Some UK travel to meet teams on-site
The Role:
Newly created opportunity! You will take ownership of the end-to-end people agenda, ensuring HR supports growth, performance, and culture, while remaining pragmatic and delivery-focused.

Key Responsibilities:

- Design and deliver training and development initiatives
- Ensure HR policies, processes, and compliance are fit for a growing, multi-site organisation
- Manage a team of 2
- Act as a visible, trusted HR presence across the business
What We’re Looking For:
- Proven experience in a seniorgeneralist HR or HR Business Partner role
- Comfortable operating in a multi-site or distributed workforce environment
- Strong ER capability with confidence owning issues end to end
- Someone who leads with “I’ve implemented / developed / delivered” rather than “in my last business we did…”
- Able to influence senior stakeholders while remaining practical and hands-on
- Industry sector is flexible – experience with multi sites is essential
- Experience in fast-growing or evolving organisations is highly desirable
Working Pattern & Flexibility:
- Hybrid working with flexibility on days in the office
- Willingness to travel within the UK
- 37.5 hours per week
Why This Role:
- Opportunity to shape culture and people practices in a growing business
- High visibility and influence with senior leadership
- A role with real ownership rather than title-only business partnering
- Scope to evolve as the organisation continues to scale
