Human Resources Manager

Are you ready to make a long‑term impact? We’re looking for a confident, strategic HR Manager who can bring clarity, pace, and strong decision‑making to a dynamic, fast‑moving environment. If you thrive on variety, take ownership, and enjoy shaping the people agenda while staying hands‑on with day‑to‑day activity, this could be the ideal next step in your career.

• Lead, stabilise, and accelerate a live transformation programme, ensuring people plans align with delivery milestones and commercial priorities.
• Review, diagnose, and simplify core HR processes (ER, talent, OD, engagement) to remove friction, improve efficiency, and strengthen the colleague experience.
• Coach and challenge leaders, embedding pragmatic, pace‑driven people practices that stick in the operation.
• Own people data and insights, using metrics to focus effort, unblock issues, tell a clear story, and drive accountability.
• Deliver quick wins whilst establishing sustainable policies, communications, and governance frameworks.

• Experience in retail, hospitality, or similar high‑volume, fast‑paced environments - you’re used to handling multiple priorities at speed.
• The ability to balance strategic thinking with hands‑on delivery: you can set the direction and personally make things happen.
• Strong independent initiative - comfortable working autonomously, making sound judgements, and moving quickly.
• Solid ER and employment law knowledge, combined with practical problem‑solving skills.
• A commercial and data‑led mindset, able to justify decisions and influence stakeholders with confidence.

• Influence and ownership: Shape the people agenda and drive meaningful, measurable change.
• Autonomy: You’ll be trusted to operate at pace with minimal hand‑holding.
• Real transformation: Make a visible impact in a business that values speed, innovation, and outcomes.
• Be part of a business that values diversity, fresh thinking, and real‑world results.
• Play a key role in driving innovation and sustainability.
• Access genuine opportunities for personal development and career progression.
• Join a collaborative and supportive team with ambitious growth plans.
