HR Business Partner (12 month FTC)

Office location with Hybrid working: Hammersmith London (Hybrid working – 3 days per week in the office)

About the Role and the Team

As an HR Business Partner, you'll play a key role in supporting specific departments, partnering closely with leaders and managers to deliver a high-quality, commercially focused HR service. You'll provide trusted HR advice across the full employee lifecycle, using your professional judgement to help managers navigate people matters, build their people-management capability and create a positive employee experience. You'll work alongside our People Services Team, bringing a proactive, solutions-focused approach to more complex and business-critical people needs.

This is a varied role where you'll have the opportunity to lead and contribute to people projects, improve ways of working and help shape how we support our people and managers across the business. We're a fast-moving team, so you'll need to be comfortable managing competing priorities, adapting quickly and working at pace. We're looking for someone who can move confidently between strategic thinking and hands-on HR support, build strong relationships with stakeholders at all levels, and provide practical, commercially sound solutions.
