HR Business Partner
£50,000 - £55,000
Milton Keynes | Hybrid (2 days in the office, 3 days from home)
12-Month Fixed Term Contract
Are you an experienced HR Business Partner who thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment? Do you enjoy rolling your sleeves up, building strong stakeholder relationships and making a genuine impact on a growing business?
We're recruiting on behalf of an ambitious organisation that is investing heavily in its people function as it continues through an exciting period of growth and transformation. This isn't a role where you'll inherit polished processes and simply maintain them. Instead, you'll join a business that's evolving rapidly and needs someone who can bring structure, improve ways of working and become a trusted partner to operational leaders.
You'll take ownership of your own business area, building credibility with managers, navigating challenging stakeholder relationships and providing practical HR support across the full employee lifecycle.
The Opportunity
This is a highly operational HR Business Partner position where you'll quickly become embedded within your business area, gaining a deep understanding of its people, priorities and challenges. You'll work closely with managers to provide pragmatic, commercially focused HR support, taking ownership of employee relations, recruitment and people initiatives while helping improve HR processes across the business.
No two days will be the same. If you enjoy variety, can confidently manage changing priorities and like being at the heart of a busy business, you'll thrive in this role.
