Lodestone Recruitment is working on behalf of a well-established manufacturing business in Sheffield, to recruit an experienced HR Advisor on a 12-month fixed-term contract.

Running performance management, probation and appraisal meetings, ensuring a consistent, legally compliant approach

Advising and supporting line managers on performance, capability, disciplinary and grievance matters, taking notes and preparing papers, and seeking external professional advice where needed

Managing attendance — return-to-work interviews, Bradford Factor monitoring, medical referrals (with appropriate consent) and monthly reporting

Employee engagement and communications, including newsletters, updating the Employee Handbook and running staff consultations on terms and conditions

Processing leavers, calculating annual leave entitlement and conducting exit interviews

Maintaining personnel and payroll records (via Moorepay) in full compliance with GDPR

Liaising with the Health & Safety Officer on occupational health matters

Keeping up to date with employment legislation and general HR administration
