Milton Keynes - Hybrid Working (2 Days Office Based)

 

About the Company

I'm partnering with a growing hi-tech organisation that's investing heavily in its People function during an exciting period of transformation. With around 700 employees, this is a business where HR has a genuine voice and the opportunity to influence change. 

 

About the Role

This is a true People Business Partner role where you'll become the trusted advisor for your own business areas, partnering with senior leaders to deliver commercially focused people solutions. You'll balance strategic partnering with hands-on HR, supporting organisational change while helping to shape a positive, high-performing culture. 

 

  • Partnering with leaders across designated business areas, providing trusted HR advice and guidance
  • Leading organisational change, restructures and redundancy processes
  • Managing complex employee relations cases including disciplinaries, grievances, capability, absence and performance
  • Using HR data and insights to influence decision-making and identify trends
  • Supporting workforce planning, succession planning and organisational development
  • Driving HR projects, systems improvements and process enhancements
  • Coaching managers to build confidence and capability in people management
  • Working closely with Talent, Reward and L&D to deliver joined-up people solutions

 

About the Successful Applicant

You'll be an experienced People Partner with strong UK employment law knowledge and a commercial, pragmatic approach. You'll enjoy building trusted relationships, influencing senior stakeholders and supporting businesses through change, while confidently managing complex ER matters and redundancy processes. Ideally, you'll be CIPD qualified (or equivalent experience). 

 

What You Will Receive in Return

You'll join a collaborative and forward-thinking People team where you'll have the opportunity to influence senior leaders, drive meaningful change and work on exciting transformation projects. Alongside hybrid working, you'll enjoy a varied role where your contribution will genuinely make a difference.
