Head of Human Resources

Head of HR

STRATEGIC. HANDS-ON. TRANSFORMATION-READY. PEOPLE-FIRST.

What's in it for you...

• Salary up to £70,000
• 33 days holiday
• Private medical insurance
• Workplace pension scheme
• Employee assistance programme
• Ongoing training and career development opportunities
• Employee discounts across all venues
• The opportunity to be part of an exciting and growing business

Who are they?

A growing, multi-site leisure and entertainment business, the kind of brand that puts experience at the heart of everything. Fast-paced, people-driven. This is a business where the People function is expected to be commercial, pragmatic and hands-on. There’s real momentum here, and the opportunity to shape a function from the ground up doesn’t come around often.

The role...

You’ll step in and build a fit-for-purpose people function from the ground up, leading on complex ER, legislative compliance and organisational design, all while keeping the day-to-day running smoothly. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit behind a policy manual. This is for someone who thrives in ambiguity, earns trust fast and knows what great HR looks like in a consumer-facing, multi-site environment.

What You'll Do

• You’ll report to the People Director
• You’ll lead an established people team
• Lead and develop the HR function across the full business
• Own complex employee relations and case management end to end
• Ensure compliance with UK employment law and upcoming legislative changes
• Partner closely with senior stakeholders across operations and leadership
• Drive acquisition integration and support organisational design
• Build and implement scalable HR processes, policies and frameworks
• Coach and guide managers on all people-related matters
• Oversee and collaborate with L&D as the function develops

Who You Are

• Proven senior HR leadership experience, Head of HR or Senior HRBP level
• Strong operational HR capability, not just strategic thinking
• Comfortable in fast-moving environments
• Experience in multi-site, hospitality or consumer-facing businesses preferred
• Strong ER and employment law expertise
• Credible, pragmatic and able to influence at all levels
• Ideally experienced through transformation, mergers and acquisitions, or high-growth phases
