Regional HR Manager (Standalone) | Permanent | Up to £55,000 | North Wales | Hybrid
A growing, multi‑site leisure organisation is seeking an experienced and commercially minded HR Manager to support its next phase of transformation. Following a move to a new ERP system and a shift away from a larger group structure, the business is now shaping a more agile, centralised HR function.
With direct exposure to the Managing Director and senior leadership, this is a great opportunity for development, and an opportunity to shape and grow a newly evolving HR function.
Your New Role
As the stand-alone HR Manager, you will take ownership of operational HR delivery across approximately 350 employees, also contributing in relation to HR strategy. This is a broad, hands‑on role suited to someone who thrives in a smaller, fast‑moving environment where roles are wide‑ranging and collaboration is key.
Reporting directly to the managing director, you will act as a trusted partner to site leaders across eight UK locations, predominantly in the North, supporting culture, policy, and organisational development initiatives, with a clear pathway to future career development / senior opportunity.
Hybrid working offering: two days per week at the North Wales hub office, one day per week travelling to sites, and the remainder from home.
Responsibilities:
- Lead HR operations, supporting both strategic and day‑to‑day people activity across the full generalist remit.
- Act as the key Business Partner to site leaders, providing guidance on employee relations, people development and other activities.
- Oversee outsourced payroll - ensuring accuracy of tax, calculations, SSP, starters, leavers.
- Drive improvements in HR processes, data accuracy, and reporting.
- Support the development of policies, culture initiatives, and training strategies.
- Contribute to the ongoing transformation of the organisation’s central structure.
- Work closely with senior stakeholders including Finance and IT & Transformation.
- Play an active role as part of the senior leadership team.
Benefits
- Hybrid working with regular site engagement.
- Genuine development pathway towards a future Head of HR role.
- Collaborative, supportive environment with broad role scope.
- Flexibility to consider a 4‑day week for an exceptional candidate.
- Plus additional benefits package.
