Ready for your next step in HR? Are you an experienced HR Coordinator looking for the opportunity to move into an advisory role? Do you want exposure to complex employee relations, business change projects, TUPE activity, training initiatives across the full employee lifecycle?
If so, this could be the perfect next move.
We're recruiting for a newly created Junior HR Advisor position within a large, privately-owned, family-led business employing over 1,300 people across multiple brands and operating companies. This is an organisation that is growing rapidly, investing in its people, and hiring in to their People Team to support the ambitious plans for the future.
Working alongside an experienced HR Advisor , you'll gain hands-on experience across a broad range of HR activities while developing the skills and confidence needed to progress your HR career.
Why this role stands out This isn't a typical HR administration position.
Over the next year or so, the business will be navigating significant growth, organisational change, union engagement, business integration projects and TUPE activity. As a result, you'll have the chance to be involved in areas that many HR professionals at this level rarely get exposure to.
This is a role where you will learn quickly, take ownership, and become a key part of a passionate People team that genuinely values its colleagues and culture.
The role has been created with flexibility in mind, meaning responsibilities can evolve around your strengths, interests and development goals.
What you'll be doing You'll support the HR Advisor and wider People Team across a broad range of operational and developmental HR activities, including:
Supporting the full employee lifecycle from onboarding through to leavers
Preparing contracts, offer letters, amendments and employee documentation
Welcoming new starters and coordinating engaging onboarding and induction programmes
Managing employee records and ensuring HR systems remain accurate and compliant
Supporting recruitment administration and candidate management processes
Assisting with payroll administration and ensuring accurate employee data is provided
Administering learning and development activities through the Learning Management System (LMS)
Tracking mandatory training and producing compliance reports
Supporting probation reviews, development plans and people processes
Conducting Right to Work checks and maintaining associated documentation
Monitoring visa and immigration compliance requirements
Responding to employee and manager queries
Assisting with HR projects and organisational change initiatives
Supporting TUPE transfers and business integration activities
Gaining exposure to employee relations cases and complex HR matters
Helping coordinate and organise training initiatives across the business
What we're looking for We're keen to speak with ambitious HR professionals who are ready to take the next step into an advisory position.
You'll likely have:
Previous experience as an HR Coordinator , HR Administrator or similar role
Ideally you will have (or are working towards) your CIPD Level 5
Strong HR administration experience across the employee lifecycle
Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
Confidence managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
A proactive approach and genuine desire to develop your HR career
Strong communication skills with the ability to build relationships across all levels
Previous exposure to employee relations , organisational change, payroll administration or learning and development would be advantageous, but is not essential.
The culture This is a business that genuinely cares about its people, customers and reputation. Their values aren't just words on a wall; they're reflected in how they operate every day.
You'll be joining a team that is passionate about continuous improvement, committed to doing things the right way, and excited about an ambitious growth journey. Managers are largely self-sufficient and empowered in their roles, creating an environment where HR can focus on adding real value and supporting business success.
