This is a standout role for someone who loves being at the intersection of people, policy, and progress. You’ll be the go-to specialist on all things ER — from managing a range of high-volume ER cases to complex case investigations and supporting on ER change projects.

We’re looking for an experienced HR professional with extensive employee relations experience and the confidence and ability to provide advice and coaching to managers on a range of employee relations issues. There will be opportunity for progression within your role, and you’ll be supported by an engaging wider HR team.

In this key role, as Employee Relations Specialist you will work as part of a friendly, collaborative team, predominately focussing on employee relations casework which will include disciplinaries, up to and including dismissals and you will be responsible for Employment Tribunals within your area.  You'll provide advice and guidance to managers and employees on HR policies, procedures, and best practices, and collaborate to develop and implement strategies for improving employee relations and engagement.

We are seeking a forward-thinking Employee Relations Specialist with strong employee relations experience, excellent employment law knowledge, well-developed business and personal judgement skills in resolving issues, and the ability to engage colleagues at all levels of the organisation. Experience of working with Trade Unions is highly desirable and you’ll have experience gained in fast paced commercial environments.

The salary is up to £45,000 and the role is office-based three days per week and two days working from home.

For the top end of the salary range you'll be CIPD qualified and a highly experienced Employee Relations Specialist with extensive high volume case management experience.
