People Advisor – Cultural Arts Organisation
Central London | 3 days onsite / 2 days WFH
£40K + great benefits | 18-month FTC
Want to use your HR skills somewhere that actually has a purpose?
We’re working with a well-known organisation within the UK’s cultural arts sector who are looking for a People Advisor to join their team on an 18-month FTC.
This is a great role for an HR Advisor / HR Generalist who enjoys being close to the business, building strong relationships with managers and getting stuck into the day-to-day people challenges. You’ll have plenty of autonomy, working across a broad HR remit with a real focus on employee relations and manager support.
What you’ll be doing:
You’ll be a key point of contact for managers across the organisation, providing practical, commercially-minded HR advice and helping them confidently navigate people issues.
The role will include:
- Managing a range of hands-on ER cases, including disciplinaries, grievances and PIPS
- Coaching managers through difficult conversations and people management issues
- Advising on family leave, including maternity, paternity and shared parental leave
- Supporting managers through consultation and redundancy processes – previous experience essential
- Using people data and trends to spot issues and identify opportunities to improve
- Building trusted relationships across a varied and interesting stakeholder group
What we’re looking for:
We’re looking for someone who is confident, pragmatic and comfortable giving advice rather than simply taking notes and passing things on.
You’ll ideally have:
- Solid experience as an HR Advisor, People Advisor or HR Generalist
- Strong hands-on ER experience across absence, performance and conduct
- Experience supporting consultations and redundancies
- Good knowledge of UK employment law
- A natural ability to build relationships and coach managers
- CIPD Level 5 or equivalent experience
- Experience working in a unionised environment would be a bonus
If you’re an HR Advisor who wants a genuinely broad role, strong stakeholder exposure and the chance to work for an organisation that makes a real contribution to the UK’s cultural sector, we’d love to hear from you.
