HR Manager

Sewell Wallis is working exclusively with a brilliant Harrogate-based business to assist them in finding an interim HR Manager for six months, possibly longer, while the current Manager is seconded to another part of the group.

We have worked with this Client for several years and have recruited most of the HR team who look after several different UK wide businesses as part of the group. The HR Manager has built a great team and is highly respected within the business and will be seconded to another part of the business which has experienced significant growth and won several new contracts, so whilst they will not be on site there will be a handover and regular contact.

Initially the contract will be for 6 months however that could increase to 12 months and potentially become a permanent opportunity.

The expectation is that when interacting with other departments of the Business or Group the HR team should provide a transactional end to end function and will include overseeing the following areas:

• Work with the executive leadership to build and implement HR strategies that support the goals of the different businesses.
• Managing team members and moulding them into an effective group function, ensuring that they are well motivated, trained and resourced to meet the business requirements.
• Develop and implement HR policies and procedures to maintain legal and ethical standards and ensure the Group provides a fair and compliant workplace.
• Recruitment
• Performance Management
• To overhaul the existing process to create a performance led culture that is consistent across the Group, providing guidance on goal setting, feedback and development.
• Learning and Development
• Well-being and rewards
• Employee engagement and communication

This role offers superb benefits including:

• Parking

• Enviable holiday package.

A comprehensive job specification is available on request.
