Are you an experienced HR Advisor looking for a role that respects life outside of work?

Role Overview
We’re looking for an HR Advisor to assist various contracts across two sites in Birmingham. We are looking for someone to be based at our site in Merlin Park, who can drive a culture of positive engagement whilst confidently juggling multiple priorities — from advising stakeholders on HR issues and managing Trade Union relationships, to leading communication strategies, supporting recruitment and induction, and ensuring retention and redeployment activities meet statutory and company requirements.

- Co-ordinate and manage the HR activity required to ensure that retention and redeployment activities are executed in line with statutory and company requirements
- Support a reduction in the potential for costly litigation by conducting regular and effective site HR reviews
