Apply for the Human Resources Business Partner
Location: Milton Keynes
Job Description:

Location: Milton Keynes, with regular regional travel

Salary: Up to £50,000 per annum

Contract: Permanent

Working pattern: Home-based with travel to operational sites approximately 2 to 3 days per week

We’re supporting a growing, multi-site organisation with the appointment of an experienced HR Business Partner to provide hands‑on people support across a portfolio of locations.

This is a varied regional role where you’ll work closely with senior leaders and operational managers, providing practical and commercially focused advice across the full employee lifecycle.

Employee relations will form a key part of the position, so you’ll need to be confident managing complex casework independently while also contributing to wider people projects and organisational change.

What you’ll be doing

  • Partnering with senior leaders and managers across a portfolio of operational sites
  • Managing complex employee relations matters, including disciplinary, grievance, absence, capability and performance cases
  • Coaching managers to build their confidence in handling people matters
  • Supporting organisational change, consultation and restructuring activity
  • Providing advice across recruitment, onboarding, performance management, compliance and employee engagement
  • Helping to embed consistent people policies and processes across multiple locations
  • Supporting the integration of new sites and teams
  • Using people data to identify trends, risks and opportunities for improvement
  • Working with central People, Payroll, Recruitment and Learning and Development teams
  • Contributing to wider HR projects and continuous improvement initiatives

What we’re looking for

  • Previous experience working as an HR Business Partner or in a similar generalist HR role
  • Strong employee relations experience, including complex case management
  • Experience supporting multiple sites and different stakeholder groups
  • A sound understanding of UK employment legislation and HR best practice
  • Experience supporting organisational change, restructuring or business transformation
  • The ability to build credibility and influence managers at all levels
  • A practical, resilient and solutions-focused approach
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly

A CIPD qualification and experience within a large, multi-site or operational organisation would be beneficial but are not essential.
