HR Generalist

HR Generalist – London Law Firm (Where Culture Comes First)

📍 London | Full-time, Permanent | Monday–Friday, 9:30am–5:30pm

Are you an HR professional looking for something refreshingly different from the usual corporate routine?

We’re working with a London-based law firm that’s breaking the mould. This isn’t your typical legal environment – no stuffy suits, no rigid hierarchy. Instead, they offer a fun, vibrant and down-to-earth culture, where people genuinely enjoy what they do (and who they do it with). With under 100 people in the business, they’re a tight-knit team that values authenticity, collaboration, and a good social.

They’re now looking for an HR Generalist to join their small but impactful People & Culture team of three. This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a growing firm where your work will be valued and your voice heard.

🌟 About the Role:

The HR Generalist will support a wide range of HR activities across the employee lifecycle. From recruitment and onboarding to employee relations and performance development, this is a varied, hands-on role where no two days are the same.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide day-to-day HR support to managers and employees, ensuring consistency in policies and practice.
• Manage recruitment processes end-to-end, from job postings through to onboarding.
• Support employee relations, including performance management, absence, and grievances.
• Help deliver initiatives that support engagement, wellbeing, and learning & development.
• Maintain accurate employee records and ensure compliance with UK employment law.
• Contribute to HR projects aimed at improving processes, systems and overall employee experience.

🔍 What They’re Looking For:

• 2–4 years’ generalist HR experience, ideally in a fast-paced or people-focused environment.
• Strong working knowledge of UK employment law.
• CIPD Level 3 or 5 (or working towards) is preferred but not essential.
• Confident communicator with great interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
• Highly organised with good attention to detail.
• A team player with a proactive, positive attitude.

💡 Why Join Them:

• A relaxed, inclusive culture where people can truly be themselves.
• Regular socials and team events – they work hard, but have fun doing it.
• Real flexibility and a focus on work-life balance.
• The chance to be part of something smaller, where your impact is tangible and appreciated.

If you're looking for a people-first HR role in a genuinely refreshing environment, we’d love to hear from you.
