Our people are the driving force behind our success. They are our greatest investment and our ultimate competitive advantage. We hire exceptional people and give them the autonomy, trust, and ownership to thrive. The results take care of themselves.

 

 
The Role

  • Support the Senior People Relations Manager on any complex employee relations cases and appeals
  • Collaborate closely with our People Operations team to support employee lifecycle processes as needed, including systems, data, relations & compliance
  • Answer complex and escalated employee queries in our People Team Helpdesk (ticketing system)
  • Compile key data and insights for People Partners covering employee joiners, movers and leavers, employee relations and engagement
  • With support from the People Coordinator, liaise with employees and people leaders on family leave requests, for example, maternity, baby bonding (paternity), shared parental leave, adoption leave etc
  • Support on ad hoc People Team and People Partner initiatives and projects, as and when required
     
What you will bring ...
  • Demonstrable background as a HR Generalist that includes advising and coaching junior and mid-level managers on people-related issues
  • Solid working knowledge on policies and procedures, UK employment law and best practice
  • Proven experience in managing employee relations cases, ensuring we are compliant with employment legislation and guidelines
  • The ability to use good judgment when advising the business on appropriate actions

  • Ability to analyse information and present it in a concise and impactful manner
  • Highly organised with good attention to detail
  • Flexible and adaptable, able to work in a fast-paced environment
  • CIPD Level 5 (or working towards) is desirable but not essential

 

Dojo home and away

We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These “together days” foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas.

That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.

With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.


Question: what’s curious, relentless, and customer obsessed?

If you’re keen to know the answer, you’re a third of the way to meeting our Dojo values.

If the following speak to you, let’s talk:

  • You’re curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.
  • You’re relentless. You keep going even when it’s easier not to. 
  • You’re customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do.
