Interim HR Generalist

HRLife are working with an innovative, technology business to find them an Interim HR Generalist for an initial temporary period of 3-6 months.

Reporting directly to the COO, this is a broad generalist role and will cover the whole spectrum of HR from providing operational day to day advice and guidance to embedding strategic activities to develop a high performing organisation with a super engaged workforce.

This is a stand-alone role and requires someone who can hit the ground running, own HR processes and handle a wide range of challenges in a small and relatively young organisation.

• Managing Health & Safety processes
• Monitoring and reviewing HR policies and processes, updating as needed
• Providing HR metrics to the SLT on an annual basis
• Reporting key HR analysis and trends on a monthly basis.

You’ll come from a generalist background, ideally from a SME where no two days are the same! Ideally you’ll be well organised, delivery-oriented, a self-starter and motivated to make a positive difference to the performance and culture of the organisation.

Experience should include:

Solid operational HR experience, preferably in a small team or a in a stand-alone role
