Well Placed HR are delighted to be recruiting for an experienced HR Advisor to join a growing care organisation with services across Cornwall.

This is a varied and hands-on HR role which would suit an experienced HR professional who is confident working autonomously and is comfortable providing advice and support across all areas of HR.

Working closely with the HR Director and wider HR team, you will have responsibility for a range of HR activities across the organisation, while also providing cover and support to the wider HR function.

As HR Advisor your duties will include:

- Providing day-to-day HR advice and guidance to managers and employees
- Supporting with employee relations, performance, conduct, sickness absence and other people matters
- Reviewing and updating HR policies in line with current employment legislation and best practice
- Creating and implementing new policies and procedures where required
- Supporting recruitment across the organisation, including advertising, onboarding, induction, probation and contracts
- Supporting the recruitment of overseas workers, including sponsorship and Home Office requirements
- Carrying out staff audits and ensuring HR records and documentation are up to date
- Supporting Registered Managers with HR queries and employee matters
- Attending meetings, taking minutes and following up on actions where required
- Supporting the development and implementation of HR projects and initiatives
- Providing general HR support as the organisation continues to grow

We are looking for someone who has significant generalist HR experience and is confident managing their own workload and dealing with HR matters independently. You will need to be comfortable having difficult conversations, advising managers and employees, and dealing with sometimes sensitive and challenging situations.

The HR Advisor will ideally have:

- A relevant HR qualification, such as CIPD
- Strong generalist HR experience
- Good knowledge of UK employment legislation and HR best practice
- Experience managing employee relations and performance issues
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Good IT skills, including Word, Excel, Office 365 and Teams
- Experience of working independently and managing competing priorities
- A full UK driving licence and the ability to travel across Cornwall when required

Experience within care, healthcare or another regulated environment would be advantageous, as would experience with Sponsorship Licences, Home Office reporting and the SMS system, although this is not essential.

You will need to be based in Cornwall or Devon within a reasonable travelling distance of Cornwall.

In return, the organisation offers:

- £33,000 - £35,000 salary this is the actual salary not the FTE!
- Home based working with travel as required
- 45p per mile mileage allowance
- Other financial and non-financial benefits and bonuses

This is a great opportunity for an experienced HR Advisor who is looking for a varied and autonomous role where you can really make a difference and have responsibility across the full HR function.
