Provide professional HR advice and operational support to designated business areas
Support managers with employee relations matters, including documentation, correspondence and case resolution
Assist with performance management and the delivery of Sizewell C’s performance framework, reward cycle and cyclical HR processes
Maintain accurate employee records and process workflows and approvals through MyHR

The ability to influence stakeholders and provide constructive challenge
Strong commercial awareness within an HR setting
Excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills
A collaborative approach and the ability to work across different teams and functions
Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Confidence using Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint
A self-motivated approach with the ability to work independently and as part of a team

Ideally, you’ll be CIPD qualified at Level 3 or Level 5. However, we’re also interested in hearing from candidates who are willing to work towards a CIPD qualification.

Experience using HR systems such as SAP, MyHR or similar platforms would be beneficial, alongside exposure to HR data analytics, reporting, organisational change or workforce planning tools.
