HR Director

** Experienced HR Director needed for an industrial SME business in the East Midlands about to undertake rapid growth **

We will get straight to it in regards to what this client seeks. On the cusp of some rapid expansion, the senior leadership in this business need an HR Director to complete their top table as they seek to successfully execute this growth plan.

Is this a business where the people strategy is fully formed? No. Is this a business where the SLT have the HR knowledge needed to mitigate risk and realise opportunities related to acquisitive and organic growth? No. Is this therefore a chance for an experienced HR Director with a background in expanding, blue-collar SMEs to transform and execute against the people plan? Yes.

To articulate this a slightly different way, please read through the following and see if this role is you:

• An HRD with growth stories under your belt in an SME blue-collar context
• Able to work fast and juggle competing priorities
• Able to thrive in a business that is mid-change, not steady-state
• Keep pace within a leadership team that operates at high tempo
• Player-manager mentality, none of the leadership team are precious if it's for the good of the business
• That said, it's not about working long hours, just be smarter within the ones you work
• Comfortable with ambiguity, complexity and the need to navigate at pace

In short, are you looking for a role where you can run hard now to transform, then build something sustainable once the dust settles? If so, then please, we would love you to apply for this role. There is a lot of opportunity for the right person to add value in this role!
