HR Advisor
Tonyrefail, South Wales
Up to £38,000 + excellent benefits
Ensinger is a global leader in high-performance engineering plastics, supplying innovative material solutions to a wide range of industries worldwide. At our Tonyrefail site, we are proud to combine the strength of an international group with a supportive, people-focused and down-to-earth working environment.
We are now looking to appoint an experienced HR Advisor to join our HR team, where we cover 4 sites across the UK. You will be expected to travel to our Bridgwater site on a weekly basis, ad hoc, there and back in one day. This is an excellent opportunity for a capable and commercially aware HR professional who enjoys variety, values strong working relationships and wants to play a key role in delivering a high-quality HR service across the business.
The opportunity
As HR Advisor, you will support the business across the full employee lifecycle, providing practical HR advice, guidance and administration to managers and employees. The role offers a broad and varied remit covering recruitment, onboarding, employee relations, reporting, training coordination and general HR operations.
This is not a heavily ER-focused role. While employee relations experience is important, the position is much broader, with a strong emphasis on supporting managers, maintaining HR processes and delivering an excellent people 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.
