Are you an experienced HR professional ready to take ownership of the people agenda within a growing business?
We’re delighted to be supporting a growing local business who are a respected name in their sector, in their search for a hands-on HR Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity for an HR leader who thrives in an SME environment and wants to make a real impact.

The Role

As HR Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind the company’s people strategy – ensuring the client continues to attract, develop and retain top talent while maintaining a positive, supportive culture. Reporting directly to the Operations or Managing Director, you’ll work closely with senior leadership and a Fractional People Director to shape and deliver a Strategic People Plan.

Your responsibilities will cover the full HR spectrum, including:

  • Recruitment & Onboarding – managing end-to-end hiring and ensuring smooth employee integration.

  • Employee Relations – acting as a trusted advisor, resolving concerns fairly and in line with company values.

  • Performance Management – implementing effective review and feedback systems.

  • Learning & Development – identifying training needs and delivering capability-building programmes.

  • Compliance & Policy – keeping policies up to date and aligned with UK employment law.

  • Compensation & Benefits – overseeing payroll, benefits and fair pay structures.

  • HR Strategy – monitoring HR metrics and aligning people initiatives with business goals.

About You

We’re looking for an HR professional who is approachable, proactive and commercially minded. Ideally, you’ll bring:

  • 3–5 years’ experience in HR management, preferably within an SME.

  • CIPD Level 5 in People Management (or equivalent experience).

  • Strong knowledge of UK employment law.

  • Excellent communication, relationship-building and conflict resolution skills.

  • A proven ability to juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

  • Confidence using HR software and Microsoft Office Suite.

What’s on Offer

  • A competitive salary of £45,000 – £50,000 FTE, dependent on experience.

  • A part-time permanent role (approx. 3/4 days) with the option to transition to full-time in the future.

  • The chance to shape and influence the HR function in a growing, values-driven business.

  • A supportive leadership team that values HR as a strategic partner.


If you’re looking for the next step in your HR career and want to play a key role in shaping the people strategy of a dynamic company, we’d love to hear from you.
