People Advisor

Are you an experienced HR or People professional looking to develop your expertise in employee relations, TUPE and organisational change? We’re looking for a People Advisor - Employee Relations & Integration to join our People Team. This is a varied, hands‑on opportunity where you’ll combine day-to-day employee relations casework with supporting TUPE transfers, integration and wider change programmes. Working closely with our People Partner (ER & Integration) and the wider People Team, you’ll help managers navigate employee matters confidently and fairly, while ensuring our people receive a positive and consistent experience. You’ll also have the opportunity to build your knowledge of UK employment law, contribute to improvements across our policies and processes and help develop practical resources that strengthen our approach to employee relations and future integrations.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Advising, supporting and coaching managers on employee relations matters including disciplinary, grievance, absence and appeals cases.
• Supporting and, where appropriate, leading investigations, ensuring they are thorough, fair and impartial.
• Supporting end-to-end TUPE transfers, from consultation through to onboarding and integration.
• Coordinating the onboarding and integration of transferring employees, ensuring clear communication and a welcoming experience.
• Providing practical guidance on ER and TUPE queries to colleagues, managers and the wider People Team.
• Supporting restructuring, redundancy and organisational change programmes.
• Developing ER and TUPE templates, guidance and resources to help improve consistency and share best practice.
• Keeping up to date with UK employment legislation and helping translate changes into practical updates to policies and processes.
• Identifying emerging employee relations issues and risks, escalating more complex or sensitive matters where appropriate.
• Maintaining accurate and confidential ER and TUPE records and using people data to identify trends and opportunities for improvement.
• Working closely with People Advisors to identify common themes and continuously improve our approach to employee relations.

What We’re Looking For

Ideally, you’ll be working towards or have achieved a CIPD qualification, although your practical HR and employee relations experience will be equally important.

You’ll Bring

• Experience providing practical HR advice and managing employee relations cases.
• A good working knowledge of UK employment law and ER processes, including disciplinary, grievance, absence and appeals.
• An understanding of TUPE and consultation processes, ideally gained through supporting transfers, integration or organisational change.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to balance casework, projects and competing priorities.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the confidence to coach and constructively challenge.
• Experience using people systems and handling sensitive and confidential information.
• A practical and curious approach to problem-solving, with an interest in finding better and simpler ways of working.

This is a great opportunity if you enjoy the variety of employee relations but also want broader exposure to TUPE, integration and business change. You’ll have the chance to take real ownership of your work while learning from experienced colleagues and developing your knowledge across increasingly complex ER and integration activity.
