Job Description
Are you an ambitious HR Advisor feeling boxed in by endless
admin, or looking for a role with a genuine, visible pathway to
Junior HRBP? If you’re ready to step up into a role where your
advice carries real weight and where your development is actively
backed from day one, this could be the ideal next step for your
career. We are working with a leading infrastructure services
business to recruit a Regional HR Advisor to partner closely with
operational leadership across the West Midlands and surrounding
region.
HR Advisor
Permanent
Up to £37,500 + EV Car or Car Allowance
Regional – West Midlands and surrounding
Hybrid / Multi-site – 3:2
Reporting into the HRBP and sitting within a collaborative
divisional team that supports c250 employees, this role offers a
clear balance of operational grit and strategic people planning.
Roughly two thirds of your focus will be dedicated to management
support and end-to-end employee relations casework—acting as the
primary trusted advisor to managers and operational leaders
across front-line and support teams. You’ll handle conduct,
grievance, performance, and absence cases from intake to
resolution, planning and conducting thorough investigations while
proactively managing people risk. Crucially, the remaining third
of your time will see you step away from reactive ER to partner
on talent planning, engagement initiatives, succession mapping,
and management capability building.
While you will operate closely within a focused, agile business
unit team, you have the backing of a much wider corporate HR
function, including central shared services and centres of
excellence for L&D and talent. The Head of HR has embedded a
strong culture of internal development across the team, making
this a prime post for rapid progression—previous postholders have
successfully stepped up into Junior HRBP positions based on
impact and output.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for an outgoing, credible HR Advisor or Employee
Relations Specialist with solid experience managing casework and
a strong, practical grasp of UK employment law. You should be
someone who genuinely enjoys being out in the business, building
trusting relationships with operational managers, and coaching
leaders rather than just policing process. You will need strong
communication and investigative skills, the ability to balance
multiple priorities across a regional footprint, and a
commercial, pragmatic approach to resolving issues. I
