I’m partnering exclusively on the search for an exceptional HR Director to join a growing, PE-backed, blue-collar business at a pivotal point in its evolution.
The People function is at an important point of transition, creating a genuine opportunity to build, transform and professionalise HR from the ground up.
I’m keen to speak with commercially minded HR leaders who can demonstrate experience across:
- Building and developing high-performing HR functions
- Managing, developing and coaching a small HR team, creating capability, accountability and pace
- Operating within industrial, operational and blue-collar environments
- Ideally combining a strong HR background with broader operational experience or a genuine understanding of operationally led businesses
- Coaching and constructively challenging senior leaders
- Developing workforce planning, talent and succession strategies
- Managing complex employee relations and trade union relationships
- Working effectively with executive leadership teams and Private Equity stakeholders
- Bringing energy, pace and commercial thinking to business transformation
You’ll work closely with the Managing Director and wider leadership team, acting as a trusted adviser while also providing the challenge needed to support the next stage of growth.
If you’re an HR leader who enjoys working in fast-paced, operational environments and wants a role where you can genuinely shape the future of a business, apply now.
