Are you an HR Advisor,  looking to join a purpose-led organisation at the heart of the UK's cultural sector?

You'll be a trusted advisor on a broad range of employee relations matters and play a key role in supporting managers to navigate people challenges confidently and effectively.
Key responsibilities will include:

• Managing low level ER cases including sickness absence, performance and conduct issues 
• Supporting family leave cases including maternity, paternity and shared parental leave
• Coaching managers through difficult conversations and people management challenges
• Supporting redundancy consultation processes 
• Monitoring people data and trends to identify areas for improvement

About You
To be successful in this role, you'll bring:

• Previous experience in a generalist HR Advisor / People Advisor position
• Strong ER experience, including managing sickness absence, conduct and performance cases, not just note-taking 
• Experience advising managers through consultation and redundancy processes

• Excellent stakeholder management and coaching skills
• CIPD Level 5 qualification (or equivalent experience) is desirable
• Experience in a Unionised environment is advantageous
