Contract/Project
HR Adviser / HR Officer

Location: Cardiff (Hybrid Working)

Rate: £24.42 per hour

Hours: 35 hours per week

Contract: 3 months initially

We're working with a well-established organisation that is looking to appoint an HR Adviser to join its People team on a temporary basis.

Experienced HR Advisers are the priority, although applications are also welcomed from strong HR Officers or Senior HR Administrators looking to take the next step into an advisory role. Candidates working towards a CIPD 5 qualification would be particularly attractive.

The Role

This is a varied generalist HR position where you'll provide practical, people-focused advice and support to managers and employees across a range of business areas.

A significant part of the role involves managing a generalist employee relations caseload, including:

Absence management

Disciplinary cases

Grievances

Performance management issues

Flexible working requests

End of fixed-term contracts

Investigations and associated HR processes

You'll act as a trusted adviser to managers, helping them navigate people-related challenges and ensuring they have the support needed to run their teams effectively and efficiently.

Alongside employee relations work, you'll also:

Provide day-to-day HR advice and guidance across the employee lifecycle

Support organisational change and people projects

Produce and analyse HR reports and workforce data

Deliver training, presentations and guidance to managers

Support the implementation of HR policies and procedures

Build strong working relationships across the organisation and become a valued HR partner to key stakeholders

About You

To be successful in this role, you'll have:

Previous experience in an HR Adviser, HR Officer, People Adviser or similar generalist HR role

Experience managing a broad employee relations caseload independently

Good working knowledge of UK employment law and HR best practice

Strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills

The ability to provide pragmatic, commercial and solutions-focused HR advice

Excellent communication and organisational skills

Strong attention to detail and experience working with HR systems and data

CIPD Level 5 qualification, equivalent experience, or currently working towards CIPD would be highly advantageous.

Experience using iTrent would be beneficial, although this is not essential.

What's on Offer

£24.42 per hour

Hybrid working arrangement

Broad and varied generalist HR experience

Opportunity to work closely with managers across multiple business areas

Exposure to employee relations, organisational change and HR projects

Development opportunities for ambitious HR professionals looking to progress their career

If you're an experienced HR Adviser looking for your next opportunity, or an HR Officer ready to step up into a more advisory-focused position, we'd be keen to hear from you
