HR Manager in Wigan

HR Manager

Location: Wigan

Salary: £40,000 per annum

Contract: Permanent

A Role Where You Can Make a Real Difference

If you\’re an organised, people-focused HR professional who enjoys the practical side of HR, this role offers the chance to shape and support a growing family business during an exciting period of expansion. You\’ll work closely with the company\’s directors, build relationships across multiple sites, and play a key part in ensuring HR processes run smoothly and consistently. If you\’re looking for a role where your contribution is visible, valued, and genuinely makes a difference, this could be the ideal next step in your HR career.

What\’s in It for You?

• £40,000 annual salary
• Opportunity to work directly with owners and directors
• Influence and ownership within a growing organisation
• Supportive, down-to-earth team culture
• Stability and long-term career potential

Why This Role Stands Out

You\’ll be joining a business that is expanding quickly but still holds onto its family feel. HR processes and policies are already in place — the organisation now needs someone who can strengthen them, keep everything organised, and support managers day to day.

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Enjoys creating order and consistency
• Takes pride in accurate documentation
• Likes being the central point of contact for managers
• Wants a role with genuine responsibility, not just admin tasks

What We\’re Looking For

• Experienced in HR administration
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Approachable, confident, and supportive
• Practical and solutions-focused
• Able to work independently across multiple sites
• Comfortable coordinating payroll inputs and HR documentation
• Someone who brings calm, clarity, and consistency to busy environments

You’ll Be a Perfect Fit If You…

• Enjoy the operational, hands‑on side of HR
• Like being the person who keeps everything running smoothly
• Are comfortable working closely with senior leaders
• Want to contribute to a business where your work truly matters
• Are steady, reliable, and confident supporting managers
