Do you want to protect businesses, not just process paperwork? The role is based in our offices here in Goring-on-Thames.
At HRCentral, we aim to deliver the best possible outcome for our clients.
We've been described as tenacious because we fight hard for the businesses we support. We're looking for an HR Generalist who shares that instinct: someone who thinks commercially, works at pace, and can stand in front of a room of managers and make them better at their jobs.
HOW WE WORK
We've been doing this since 2006. HRCentral was founded by Rebecca Woolmington, who still owns and runs the business. We're not a franchise, so there's no diluted service and no script. Our advice is clear, pragmatic, and straight to the point. Too many consultancies hedge with "coulds" and "maybes." We don't.
We assess the options and give our clients a clear answer they can act on. We're happy to call ourselves HR geeks. We stay ahead of the curve on employment legislation, case law and best practice, so our clients stay compliant and can use HR to grow.
We don't run a rigid account management model. Whoever picks up the phone is up to speed on that client's business, so you'll know our clients well and work as a seamless extension of their team, alongside their board, decision makers and line managers. We cover the whole employee lifecycle, from recruitment through performance management, development, conflict resolution and retention. We also support clients with health and safety, TUPE and pre-sale HR due diligence, helping protect their valuation when they sell.
Our clients are UK-wide and from every sector, from STEM to retail and accountancy to marketing, ranging from micro businesses to larger SMEs.
No two days are the same.
