View full job details and apply… Human Resources Business Partner # Human Resources Business Partner Pro Ref ## Job Description You’re an experienced HR professional who enjoys being close to the day-to-day work but also wants the opportunity to shape what comes next. This could be a genuinely interesting move for you. Partnering closely with the HR Director, you’ll lead the day-to-day HR service, manage and develop two HR Executives and provide trusted, practical advice to directors and managers across the organisation. There are good foundations in place, but also plenty of scope for you to bring greater structure, consistency and forward planning. You’ll be able to make the role your own, develop your team and contribute to talent, organisational development and wider people priorities from the outset. As the HR function continues to develop, there is genuine potential for you to take on more strategic responsibility, gain greater exposure to senior leadership and step up in the HR Director’s absence. ### What you’ll be doing - Leading complex employee relations and performance matters with confidence, fairness and good judgement - Coaching and supporting managers to handle people matters more effectively - Managing and developing two HR Executives, setting clear priorities and helping them grow in confidence - Leading the annual HR cycle, including objectives, performance reviews and development planning - Overseeing core HR operations, systems, reporting, payroll, pensions and benefits activity - Strengthening talent, succession and management development - Improving HR processes and ways of working - Deputising as the senior HR contact when the HR Director is unavailable ### What you’ll bring You’ll have substantial experience as an HR Business Partner or senior HR generalist, with strong knowledge of UK employment law and extensive experience of complex employee relations. You’ll be comfortable advising and constructively challenging senior leaders, developing managers and leading an HR team. You’ll also be able to balance immediate operational demands with planned work and longer-term improvements. Experience within football isn’t essential, although experience in sport, media or another high-profile, regulated or reputation-sensitive environment would be useful. A CIPD qualification, or progress towards one, would also be welcome. This is a home-based role, but it isn’t fully remote. You’ll need to travel to the London office and other business locations when required. ### What you’ll receive - 8% employer pension contribution when you contribute 4% - Bupa private medical insurance after probation plus four times salary life assurance and Group Income Protection - Annual leave allowance of 25 days plus Bank Holidays - A discretionary, non-contractual annual bonus equivalent to 5% of salary, linked to agreed KPIs - Care First Employee Assistance Programme and the Aviva DigiCare+ health and wellbeing app - Access to the Wellhub fitness and wellbeing platform after probation - The option to swap up to two UK bank holidays for personally meaningful days - Access to the EV car scheme after one year’s service, subject to eligibility ### Who are we?
