Welcome to UKI P&C
You’ll be part of UK and Ireland People & Culture team where you, together with your colleagues, will manage HR matters, including short- and long-term absence, ER cases, and HR onboarding and offboarding processes.

You’ll play an important role in:

• advising on HR policies, procedures and guidelines, and acting as subject matter expert
• supporting managers with employer relations, investigations, and performance management
• managing short- and long-term absences, working with managers, employees, and occupational health as required
