A senior site HR opportunity for someone who enjoys complex ER, operational pace and building a more proactive people agenda.
We're working with a leading food manufacturing business looking to appoint a Senior HR Business Partner into a key site-based role. This is a broad, visible HRBP position where you'll work closely with senior leaders and managers across a fast-paced operational environment. The role will suit someone who enjoys being close to the business, understands the realities of manufacturing, and can balance hands-on HR delivery with more strategic people planning.
Location: Cambridgeshire
Working Pattern: 4 days on site
Salary: £50,000-£60,000 DOE + £6,000 car allowance + 20% bonus + enhanced pension
Key Responsibilities:
- Partner with site leadership and operational managers to support the people agenda across the site, with a focus on managing complex ER casework across disciplinary, grievance, absence, capability, conduct and performance matters.
- Coach managers to take more ownership of people issues and build confidence in difficult conversations.
- Use KPI data, HR analytics and people trends to identify risks, themes and opportunities for improvement.
- Support organisational design, workforce planning and change activity across operational teams.
- Drive employee engagement, retention, communication and site culture initiatives.
- Provide practical, commercial HR advice that supports operational performance, not HR in isolation.
What We're Looking For:
- Strong generalist HR experience, ideally gained in FMCG, food manufacturing, manufacturing, logistics, warehousing or another complex operational environment.
- Significant HRBP, Senior HRBP or equivalent generalist HR experience.
- Strong complex ER case management capability.
- Confidence advising, supporting and challenging managers.
- A clear understanding of people KPI data, analytics and how to translate insight into action.
- Experience supporting organisational design, employee engagement and proactive people planning.
- CIPD Level 5 or equivalent experience.
You don't need to come from food manufacturing specifically, but you do need to understand pace, complexity, operational pressure and the importance of being visible on site.
