Salary: £45,000
Our client provides tailored linen services to healthcare providers, hospitality businesses and venues across the UK. They are a busy, operational, multi-site business, and their people play a vital role in helping them deliver a reliable, high-quality service to their customers every day.
They now have a great opportunity for an experienced HR Advisor to join their team and report directly into the General Manager of the site. This role would suit someone who enjoys being close to the business, working with managers, supporting employees and getting involved in a broad range of day-to-day HR activity.
This is a hands-on role where no two days will be the same. You will be supporting line managers with employee relations matters, helping to ensure that decisions are fair, consistent and in line with policies, procedures and employment law. You will also play an important part in supporting managers to develop their teams and deliver an excellent service.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
