Job Description:

HR Operations Manager | City of London | Hybrid | £63K

Looking for an HR role where you can genuinely get under the skin of a business rather than simply manage HR processes?

We’re recruiting an experienced HR Operations Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day people agenda for a specialist London-based business unit within a global organisation currently going through change.

This is a hands-on, broad generalist role. You’ll be the key HR contact for the business, working closely with senior leaders and providing pragmatic, commercially focused HR support, while also being part of a wider international HR structure.

What will you be getting involved in?

  • Acting as the go-to HR partner for the London population
  • Managing complex ER matters, including cases involving senior employees
  • Supporting restructures, organisational change and workforce planning
  • Leading recruitment and onboarding activity
  • Driving performance management, appraisals and talent development
  • Working closely with central HR and shared services
  • Ensuring HR policies, processes and people data remain compliant and effective

What are we looking for?

You’ll already be an established HR Manager or experienced HR generalist from a private-sector environment, with at least 8 years’ HR experience at Advisor level or above.

You’ll need strong UK employment law knowledge and demonstrable experience of managing complex ER and restructures. Experience working within a global or matrix organisation would be a real advantage.

This role would particularly suit someone who enjoys being close to the business, visible to stakeholders and comfortable operating in an environment where things are changing.
