- Coach and develop managers to build confidence and capability in managing people effectively.
- Ensure compliance with UK employment legislation, HR policies and best practice.
- Maintain accurate HR systems, records and reporting to support business decision-making.
- Oversee the preparation and maintenance of contracts of employment, job descriptions, offer documentation and HR policies.
- Lead GDPR and information governance activities, including Subject Access Requests and data protection compliance.
- Manage HR communications relating to new starters, leavers, promotions, pay reviews, employee wellbeing and business initiatives.
- Coordinate annual salary reviews and bonus administration alongside the Payroll team.
- Support organisational change, restructures and continuous improvement projects.
- Develop recruitment processes and provide support to hiring managers throughout the recruitment lifecycle.
- Oversee apprenticeship and training programmes.
- Work closely with Payroll to ensure accurate HR data and provide payroll support when required.

- Coordinate employee recognition and engagement activities.
- Support the Group HR Director with HR projects and business initiatives.
