Job Description:

HR Advisor | £35,000 | Hinckley, Leicestershire

Ready to step out of operations and into HR for real?

Calling all Hospitality & Retail People Managers, HR Managers and ER specialists 👋

If you love employee relations, coaching managers, solving people problems and want to move into a fully HR-focused role (without juggling rotas, stock takes or weekend shifts), this could be the career move you've been waiting for.

I'm partnering with a leading professional services business to support the growth of their HR Advisory team. This is a brilliant opportunity for people-focused professionals from fast-paced hospitality or retail environments who want to specialise in HR and employment law while still working at pace.

Day to Day

• Managing a varied caseload of ER matters (from quick advice queries to complex cases end-to-end)
• Advising managers and business owners via phone and email
• Coaching clients through best practice, legally compliant and commercial options
• Building trusted relationships with clients through empathy, clarity and confidence
• Supporting with document reviews, policy guidance and ad-hoc letters
• Keeping advice accurate, compliant and clearly recorded
• Working to clear KPIs (quality-focused, not sales-driven)

This role is ideal for you if…

• You've worked in hospitality or retail as a People Manager, HR Manager or ER specialist
• You enjoy complex employee relations and advising managers
• You want to step away from operational HR into a specialist advisory role
• You thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy problem-solving
• You're curious, commercially aware and love learning

Employment law knowledge is helpful - but attitude, people skills and ER experience matter most.

What's in it for you?

• £35,000 salary, reviewed twice a year
• Commission opportunities + profit share
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (rising with service)
• Your birthday off
• Private medical (with service)
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Continuous training from in-house specialists
• Clear career pathways within HR advisory
• Incentives including weekends away, vouchers, meals out & extra time off
• Social events, team days, awards evenings and genuine recognition

Supportive. High-energy. Development-focused culture!

You'll be surrounded by people who want you to succeed, backed by a senior leadership team that listens and invests in its people.

Interested?

If you're currently in retail or hospitality HR/People management and thinking "I want to do HR properly now", I'd love to tell you more.
