Anderson Knight is delighted to be partnering exclusively with a well-established, values-driven organisation to recruit an HR Adviser for their Glasgow operation.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced HR professional looking for a broad, generalist role where they can genuinely influence the people agenda. Supporting two operational sites across Glasgow and Inverclyde, you'll work closely with senior leaders to drive engagement, development, employee experience and business performance. This role offers a fantastic blend of operational HR support and project-based people initiatives, making it ideal for someone who enjoys variety and wants to make a visible impact.
About the Role
The opportunity to join a supportive and highly collaborative HR team, you'll partner with managers across a diverse operational workforce, providing practical, commercially focused HR advice and guidance. Working closely with the local leadership team, you'll help shape and deliver key people initiatives, support organisational objectives and contribute to the wider People Plan. While employee relations support forms part of the role, there is significant opportunity to become involved in engagement, development, communications and people projects that directly influence the employee experience.
