Hybrid in Manchester, Trafford Park (2 days in office)
Step into a role where you’ll shape culture, influence strategy, and become the trusted HR partner for leaders and employees across the UKI region. As the organisation’s regional HR anchor, you’ll drive initiatives that align people, structure, and culture with business goals while owning the full employee experience from onboarding to performance cycles.
