Employee Relations Investigator
Axiom is supporting a large global technology company seeking an organised and thoughtful Employee Relations Investigator to join its investigations team.
You will manage employee investigations from case assignment through to final determination. The role involves more than fact-finding: you will assess the evidence, decide outcomes and confidently explain and support your findings.
You will conduct fair, thorough and timely interviews with employees and contractors about sensitive workplace matters. You’ll need to build trust quickly, ask thoughtful questions and approach complex employee relations issues with care and sound judgement.
Responsibilities
- Conduct interviews concerning sensitive HR and employee relations matters.
- Review information from internal systems and maintain clear, accurate records.
- Gather and assess information from employees and other stakeholders.
- Identify patterns in casework and opportunities to address recurring issues.
- Manage a busy caseload while maintaining the quality and consistency of your work.
- Work with employee relations, legal and other teams on complex investigations.
- Reach evidence-based conclusions and clearly explain the reasoning behind your findings.
Minimum qualifications
- At least two years’ experience conducting employee investigations or handling complex employee relations matters in an HR or legal role.
- Strong knowledge of the UK grievance process.
- Experience handling complex matters, including harassment, sexual harassment and disability discrimination.
- Good knowledge of the Equality Act 2010 and the wider UK employment law framework.
- Sound judgement and confidence making decisions based on evidence.
- The ability to explain the rationale for decisions and findings clearly.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to build trust with people at all levels.
- Excellent writing skills and experience documenting investigation findings clearly and accurately.
- The ability to ask sensitive, probing questions and identify relevant facts.
- Strong organisational and administrative skills.
