An outstanding opportunity has arisen for an experienced HR Manager
An outstanding opportunity has arisen for an experienced HR Manager to join a well-established and rapidly growing hospitality group operating across multiple sites in the East of England. This is a full-time, office-based role at the group's head office just outside Colchester, with regular travel to sites across the portfolio — so your own transport is essential.
Reporting into senior leadership, you'll take ownership of the HR function for the employees and contractors spread across their locations. It's a genuine generalist role with plenty of scope
If you thrive on variety, enjoy a fast-paced environment and want to make a tangible impact on a growing business, this could be the move you've been looking for.
What you'll be doing:
- Acting as the trusted HR partner for managers and colleagues across the group, offering timely and commercially-minded advice
- Owning the full spectrum of employee relations — disciplinaries, grievances, absence, performance and complex casework
- Driving recruitment and onboarding, working closely with hiring managers to secure the right talent across all sites
- Shaping and refreshing HR policies, procedures and frameworks in line with current best practice
- Championing learning and development, including the group's apprenticeship programmes
- Tracking key people metrics and using data to spot trends and inform decision-making
- Ensuring the business remains fully compliant with UK employment law and internal policy
- Leading on HR-driven projects, including change and transformation initiatives
- Building a culture where engagement, wellbeing and inclusion aren't buzzwords but everyday practice
