Across our businesses, Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon, we combine advanced technology, deep expertise and world-class operations to help connect and protect our world.

We are now looking for an experienced HR Advisor to join our UKI & Middle East People Services team with fluency in both English & Arabic.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an HR professional who enjoys Employee Relations, thrives in a fast-paced environment and wants to work within a large, complex international organisation.

Sitting within our specialist Tier 2 People Services team, you’ll be a trusted source of HR advice for managers, helping them confidently navigate a broad range of people matters.

Your work will be varied, with a particular focus on providing initial Employee Relations advice and guidance across areas including absence, performance management, disciplinary matters, grievances and redundancy.

You’ll also:

• Advise, coach and guide managers and employees through HR policies, processes and people-related situations, from straightforward queries through to more complex cases.
• Take ownership of your own HR caseload, ensuring customers receive timely, accurate and practical support.
• Provide initial advice across specialist areas including Employee Relations, Total Reward, Talent and Learning & Development.
• Work closely with our Employee Relations Centre of Expertise where cases require formal intervention, ensuring effective recommendations and case handovers.

• Champion the People Services operating model and collaborate with colleagues across the wider HR organisation.

What you’ll bring

You’ll be an experienced HR professional who can combine sound judgement with a strong customer mindset. You’ll be comfortable working independently, managing competing priorities and giving managers clear, practical advice when people situations become more complex.

We’re looking for:

• A CIPD Level 5 qualification or above, or another relevant HR qualification, is essential.

• Practical experience of absence and performance management.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple cases and competing deadlines.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the confidence to engage stakeholders at different levels.
• Strong attention to detail and an understanding of the importance of confidentiality and data protection.
• A practical, logical approach to problem solving and decision making.
• A collaborative mindset and willingness to share knowledge, coach colleagues and contribute to the wider team.
• Strong IT skills and confidence learning and working with HR technology.
• Experience using Workday and/or ServiceNow would be advantageous, although it is not essential.

What we can offer you:

• Competitive salary.
• Flexible working, hybrid working and a family friendly approach.
• Outstanding state-of-the-art facilities and laboratories centrally located and easily accessible.
