The Roles

- Assist with employee relations cases, absence management processes, and occupational health referrals
- Coordinate recruitment activities, from advertising vacancies and screening candidates to onboarding new starters
- Support the implementation of HR policies and ensure compliance with employment legislation and internal procedures
- Produce and analyse HR metrics, including absence, turnover and headcount reporting
- Build strong relationships with employees and managers through a visible on-site presence
- Support employee engagement initiatives, communications, wellbeing activities and surveys
- Coach and guide managers on HR processes, procedures and best practice
- Partner with operational teams to foster a positive, engaged and high-performing workplace culture
