eam Leadership | Operational HR | Strategic Impact

We’re partnering with a thriving services business employing 1,000+ colleagues across the UK — most of whom are field-based, delivering essential services to customers every day.

Following a period of rapid growth, we’re now looking for a Head of HR to work closely with the senior leadership team to realign the people strategy with operational delivery and help set the business up for continued success.

🔧 The Immediate Focus:

This is a roll-your-sleeves-up role. You’ll bring clarity and consistency to the core HR activities:

• Strengthening attraction, recruitment and onboarding processes
• Driving pragmatic employee relations
• Embedding HR support that meets the realities of a field-based workforce

By stabilising the day-to-day, you’ll unlock capacity to focus on strategic transformation.

🏗 The Bigger Picture:

• Partner with senior stakeholders to reshape the HR plan in line with business needs
• Support and prepare the business for continued growth through acquisition and integration
• Lead a small HR team, developing capability and instilling confidence across the function
• Build a scalable, fit-for-purpose HR foundation that allows the business to grow without friction

👷 ♂️ What We’re Looking For:

• A commercially astute HR leader who thrives in operational blue collar environments
• Experience of delivering effective HR to field-based and dispersed teams
• Proven ability to lead through ambiguity, reset expectations, and deliver results
• A practical, people-first approach with the credibility to influence at senior level

If you’re excited by the chance to make a meaningful impact, get the basics right and then build something better, we’d love to hear from you.

Due to the nature of the business, the role is offered on a 4 day office basis with 1 day working from home.
