Interim Global HR Business Partner - #2194393

The opportunity;

We are working with a fast growing, commercial business as they expend their footprint internationally and require some interim HR support for a period of 3.-6 months.

We’re looking for a commercially minded People professional who enjoys being close to the business, can confidently manage complex employee issues, and knows how to balance good people practice with the realities of a fast-paced organisation.

Supporting employees in the US, you’ll work closely with operational leaders and their teams, taking real ownership of day-to-day People matters while helping create greater consistency, capability and insight across the business.



The role;

Working as part of a busy, global team, you’ll be a trusted partner to the leadership teams, managing a busy and varied workload including employee relations from start to finish.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Leading thorough, pragmatic workplace investigations and producing clear recommendations.
• Coaching managers through challenging conversations, performance issues and disciplinary matters.
• Applying US employment law and policy with sound judgement and commercial awareness.
• Managing competing priorities and keeping a high-volume caseload moving effectively.
• Identifying recurring themes and using data to tackle root causes rather than simply resolving individual cases.
• Helping improve People processes, guidance and ways of working.
• Building credibility with leaders by being visible, accessible and comfortable operating at pace.

This is a 3-6 month assignment - remote first with occasional UK travel and potential international travel to the US.

What We’re Looking For;

You’ll bring strong hands-on HR from a global business and experience of working closely with colleagues in the US including good knowledge of US employment law . You will bring a high degree of confidence working with experienced business leaders and the ability to make sensible decisions without relying on a rigid rulebook.

Most importantly, you’ll be commercial, resilient and pragmatic. You’ll enjoy an environment where priorities move quickly, leaders expect solutions and People professionals are there to enable the business while managing risk appropriately.
