Our client is a market-leading, high-growth business with a genuinely entrepreneurial culture, where pace, ownership and a strong customer focus drive success. As it continues to grow, this is an exciting opportunity for a Senior People Partner to join and make a real impact across the South West.
This is a regional, field-based role. You’ll spend around 4 days a week out at site, partnering regional and site leaders where the work happens. You’ll be a visible, trusted partner who brings pace, pragmatism and commercial thinking to everything you do, and you’ll help leaders get the best from their people in a fast-moving, performance-driven environment.
You’ll coach and challenge leaders to build capability and confidence, and lead complex employee relations matters with sound judgement and a commercial lens. You’ll use people data to spot trends and shape priorities, and drive talent, succession and development so the region has a strong pipeline for growth. You’ll also lead change across your region and work closely with Centres of Excellence so that people initiatives land well on the ground.
You’ll bring a strong track record as a Senior HR Business Partner or People Partner in a multi-site, operational business, and you’ll thrive on being out in the business, building relationships at every level. An entrepreneurial, roll-your-sleeves-up approach is key, along with the confidence to work with pace and autonomy. You’ll have strong employee relations expertise and up-to-date employment law knowledge, and the ability to link people activity to commercial outcomes and influence confidently at senior level. You’ll be CIPD qualified or have equivalent experience, and hold a full UK driving licence.
This is a high-impact role in a business that genuinely values its people and gives them the freedom to make a difference. If you’re energised by growth, pace and partnering hands-on with operational leaders, we’d love to hear from you.
