- Liaising with payroll to ensure accurate employee data and smooth monthly processing.

About You
We're looking for an experienced HR professional who enjoys working independently and taking ownership.

You'll ideally have:
- Previous experience as an HR Manager, Senior HR Advisor or HR Business Partner.
- Strong knowledge of UK employment law and HR best practice.
- Proven experience managing employee relations cases from start to finish.
- Excellent organisational skills with the ability to balance multiple priorities.
