We’re ASOS, the online retailer for fashion lovers all around the world. We exist to give our customers the confidence to be whoever they want to be, and that goes for our people too. At ASOS, you’re free to be your true self without judgement, and channel your creativity into a platform used by millions.

The purpose of this role is to provide employee relations support to our internal teams, including ASOS’ers and line managers. Working within the hub which is our immediate People Experience team, you will be responsible for the full employee lifecycle, and in the implementation of business wide people related projects. This is done through providing first-class generalist PX Advisor support and guidance across ASOS, ensuring a fair and consistent approach to all ASOS people policies and ways of working, in line with Company and legal requirements.

This role would suit an individual with experience working at PX (People Experience) Advisor level, with strong ER experience and who is used to working in a fast paced, entrepreneurial environment, where change is constant, and flexibility is vital for success.

• Take a proactive approach to professional development for yourself and others, using internal and external networks and resources to advance and share knowledge.
• Be an ambassador for the People Experience team, supporting our culture by championing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion strategies.

We believe being together in person helps us move faster, connect more deeply, and achieve more as a team. That’s why our approach to working together includes spending at least 3 days a week in the office. It’s a rhythm that speeds up decision-making, helps ASOSers learn from each other more quickly, and builds the kind of culture where people can grow, create, and succeed.
