What you'll be doing:

* Providing clear, balanced and practical advice to managers, ensuring cases are handled fairly and consistently
* Supporting investigations, hearings and appeals, including preparing documentation and advising on process
* Coaching managers to address people issues confidently and at the earliest appropriate stage
* Building constructive relationships with trade union and employee representatives
* Identifying themes from casework and contributing to improvements in policy, process and manager guidance
What we're looking for:
* Solid experience managing ER cases in a busy, fast-paced or operational environment
* Good working knowledge of UK employment law, ACAS guidance and ER best practice
* Ability to interpret policy and give clear, proportionate advice under pressure
* Strong communication skills and confident stakeholder management at all levels
* CIPD Level 5 or equivalent relevant experience
