Working closely with the current Directors, this is a great opportunity to join a successful, dynamic and growing company in a newly created role.

Candidates will preferably be CIPD level 5 or above, or studying for it.
They’re a great company to work for offering flexible working hours where required and hybrid working. That said, this role will be 100% office based initially before potentially becoming hybrid should the role holder wish.

In addition you'll maintain and manage HR Systems ensuring accurate employee records as well as leading recruitment efforts for all roles within the company.

You will maintain and enhance the performance appraisal system ensuring employee reviews are conducted regularly and consistently, and you'll collate individual development plans and build a company-wide learning development plan.
Another key part of the role will be to manage annual pay review cycle including obtaining the required salary surveys and advising the business on the outcome, reviewing and update compensation policies as needed to ensure competitiveness.
