  • FTC / Temporary

Regional HR Advisor (12-Month Maternity Cover)

Location: West Midlands (Hybrid with travel across sites)
Salary: Up to £45,000 + Company Vehicle + Excellent Benefits

Sites within region:
Birmingham CDC | Caernarfon CDC | Ellesmere Port | Newbury CDC/BB | Oxford CDC | Potteries CDC | Stoney Stanton COC | Wirral CDC | Worcester CDC

 

Are you ready to take on a rewarding HR role where no two days are the same?
We’re looking for a proactive and people-focused Regional HR Advisor to join our People Experience team on a 12-month maternity cover.

You’ll play a key role in supporting our sites across the West Midlands and beyond, providing professional HR advice, coaching managers, and partnering closely with leaders to deliver practical, people-driven solutions that make a real impact.

This is a regional role that combines operational delivery with strategic influence. You’ll spend around three days per week visiting sites, with the remainder of your time spent working remotely. A company vehicle will be provided for travel between sites.

 

What you’ll be doing

  • Provide expert, trusted HR Advise across a wide range of employee relation cases including disciplinary, grievance, absence management and capability – ensuring fair, consistent and legally sound outcomes.
  • Owning ER Case work end to end offering proactive support and coaching to managers and helping to build confidence and capability in handling sensitive people matters.
  • Championing the full employee lifecycle, from onboarding and development to exit, with a focus on creating a positive and inclusive colleague experience.
  • Coaching and upskilling managers to strengthen their people management skills, with a particular focus on ER capability and confident decision-making.
  • Partnering with operational teams to build strong, trust-based relationships and foster a culture of accountability, fairness, and open communication
  • Using ER data and insights to identify trends, inform decisions, and drive continuous improvement in policies, processes, and manager training.
  • Ensuring compliance with employment law and internal policies, applying a pragmatic and balanced approach that protects both the business and its people
  • Managing HR administration with precision and care—strong organisation and record-keeping are essential, especially in a fast-paced environment without a case management system.
  • Contributing to wider HR initiatives, bringing fresh ideas, a strategic mindset, and a passion for improving the colleague experience

 

What you’ll need to succeed

  • Proven experience in an HR Advisor role with broad exposure across the full employee lifecycle
  • Strong knowledge of Employment Law and practical experience handling ER cases end-to-end
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and influencing skills across all levels
  • Confident using HR systems, we use Workday (HRIS), PageUp (ATS), Outlook, Excel, and SharePoint
  • A data-driven and commercially minded approach to problem solving
  • The ability to balance operational delivery with strategic thinking
  • A full UK driving licence (essential) and willingness to travel regularly across the region
  • Experience in the logistics or distribution sector would be advantageous

 

Our Interview Process

Our recruitment process begins with an initial first-stage screening call, an opportunity for us to put a face to the CV, learn more about your experience, and give you an overview of the role and our business.

If successful, you’ll be invited to a second-stage formal interview, which will include competency-based questions designed to explore your skills and approach in more depth.

We’re aiming to conduct interviews at the start of November, with the successful candidate joining us  with enough time to give you a comprehensive handover period, ensuring you’re fully prepared to hit the ground running.

Why join us?

At Calor, we’re passionate about supporting our colleagues and creating an environment where people can thrive. We encourage new ideas, value curiosity, and support continuous learning. You’ll be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking team that values both getting the detail right and seeing the bigger picture.

We offer a competitive salary, company vehicle, and excellent benefits package, including:

  • 25 days annual leave + 8 bank holidays
  • Private Medical Insurance
  • Matched pension contributions 4.5% rising to 7.5% after 2 years’ service
  • Life Assurance (4x salary)
  • Cycle to Work Scheme
  • Access to retail discounts and wellbeing support

 

If you’re an HR professional who enjoys variety, thrives on building relationships, and wants to make a tangible difference in a fast-paced operational environment, we’d love to hear from you.
