The role

We are looking for a confident and experienced Regional HR Advisor to support a geographically dispersed workforce across logistics sites and office locations in Sussex and Surrey with occasional wider travel. This is a hands-on role with regular travel, ideal for someone who enjoys being visible on site and working closely with operational leaders.

As a Regional HR Advisor, you will provide end to end generalist HR support, with a strong focus on employee relations. Reporting into an HR Manager, but working independently across multiple locations, you will act as a trusted partner to managers in both warehouse and office environments.
Key responsibilities include:

• Managing a varied ER caseload, including disciplinaries, grievances, absence management, performance and capability
• Supporting managers through investigations, hearings and outcome meetings
• Providing clear, pragmatic advice aligned to UK employment law and company policy
• Coaching line managers to improve people management capability in a fast paced logistics setting, ensuring fair and consistent HR practices across all locations
• Supporting both operational and office based colleagues
• Building strong relationships across a multi site regional structure
• Regular travel to logistics depots and office locations within your region – most within a short distance of each other, with some occasional longer travel
• Opportunity to contribute to development work and projects that support business growth

What we are looking for

• 2–3 years’ proven experience managing ER casework in a generalist HR role, with the ability to work autonomously, prioritise effectively and manage competing demands
• Experience in multi-site operations (desirable)
• Strong working knowledge of UK employment law
• Confidence engaging with managers at all levels, from frontline supervisors to senior leaders
• A practical, resilient and commercially minded approach
• CIPD Level5 (or above), or working towards, is desirable but not essential

We offer

• A varied, visible HR role within a fast moving logistics organisation
• Autonomy and ownership of your regional remit, with guidance from our HR Manager
• Supportive and collaborative HR team
• Opportunities for professional development and progression
