## Job Description

**🚨 HR Director | PE-Backed | Midlands | £110,000–£120,000 + Executive Benefits**

I’m partnering exclusively on the search for an exceptional **HR Director** to join a growing, PE-backed, blue-collar business at a pivotal point in its evolution.

This is **not** a role for someone looking to simply maintain the status quo.

The People function is at an important point of transition, creating a genuine opportunity to **build, transform and professionalise HR from the ground up**.

I’m keen to speak with commercially minded HR leaders who can demonstrate experience across:

• Building and developing high-performing HR functions

• Managing, developing and coaching a small HR team, creating capability, accountability and pace

• Operating within **industrial, operational and blue-collar environments**

• Ideally combining a strong HR background with broader operational experience or a genuine understanding of operationally led businesses

• Working across **multi-site, unionised environments**

• Delivering culture change, EVP and organisational development

• Coaching and constructively challenging senior leaders

• Developing workforce planning, talent and succession strategies

• Managing complex employee relations and trade union relationships

• Working effectively with executive leadership teams and **Private Equity stakeholders**

• Bringing energy, pace and commercial thinking to business transformation

You’ll work closely with the **Managing Director and wider leadership team**, acting as a trusted adviser while also providing the challenge needed to support the next stage of growth.

**Midlands**

**£110,000–£120,000 + Executive Benefits**

This is a genuine opportunity to **build something meaningful, influence business strategy at Board level and leave a lasting legacy**.

If you’re an HR leader who enjoys working in fast-paced, operational environments and wants a role where you can genuinely shape the future of a business, apply now.
