**JOB TITLE: HR Advisor**

**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**:

- Partner with key managers to establish current and future workforce plans, including skills gaps and plan ways in which these gaps can be addressed through succession planning, secondments, promotions, transfers or via recruitment.
- Provide expert employment law advice and guidance for all of our E&C Technical Functions by maintaining up-to-date knowledge of relevant legislation and custom and practices.
- Support line managers with all casework issues of employees. This includes formal and informal disciplinary and grievance cases, long-term and intermittent sickness absence management and any welfare concerns raised by employees or their managers.

- Act as the first point of contact on HR queries of substance (as opposed to process), providing rapid responses which are user-friendly, professionally correct and clearly articulated. Where an immediate response cannot be given, ensure that the enquirer is aware that their query is being addressed and when it will be resolved.
- Champion and project manage operational and strategic HR initiatives and projects while building trust with key business stakeholders and fostering meaningful collaboration within the wider HR team (including HR business partners, HR shared services and Centers of Excellences).
