- Partner with leadership teams to align workforce planning with the organisation’s future operational and growth requirements
- Work collaboratively with senior HR colleagues and operational leaders to ensure a consistent and people-focused approach to change
- Manage your own workload effectively, adapting to peaks in activity and supporting project administration where required
- Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to enhance communication, engagement, and process efficiency during the transition
- Travel to UK sites as required to support consultation and line managers
Applicants must have:
- Proven experience as an HR Business Partner, Senior HR Advisor, or HR Manager
- Demonstrable experience delivering redundancy and restructuring programmes end-to-end
- Confident conducting complex and sensitive consultations, including face-to-face meetings
