# People Advisor

> Master of Malt · Tonbridge, United Kingdom (Hybrid) · Full-time · Posted 2026-07-22

**Workplace:** hybrid

**Department:** Atom Operations

## Description

Fancy being the kind of HR person people are actually pleased to see?

We're after a People Advisor to be the friendly, practical face of HR for our line managers - helping them handle everything from tricky conversations to everyday questions, without it ever feeling like a policy lecture. You'll be responsible for managing all our HR admin keeping it ticking along nicely too, and you'll have a good eye for spotting when something could just be done better.

You'll already have a few years of HR experience under your belt - maybe as an HR Administrator, HR Assistant, or are already an Advisor looking for somewhere different. What matters more than your job title so far is that you're practical, you listen well, and you're comfortable giving a manager honest advice.

A bit about us: we don't really do corporate HR-speak here. We care about doing right by our people, and we'd rather have a straightforward conversation than hide behind a policy document. If that sounds like your kind of HR, keep reading.

What you'll be doing:

-   Being the first port of call for line managers on day-to-day people questions
-   Supporting managers through performance issues, absence, and other tricky conversations
-   Keeping our HR admin - contracts, records, policy paperwork - accurate and running smoothly
-   Spotting the clunky, manual bits of HR admin and helping us automate or simplify them
-   Helping managers run good performance and development conversations
-   Helping build a culture people genuinely want to work in

What we're looking for:

-   At least 3 years' HR experience in HR Operations or Advisor backgrounds
-   A practical, commercial mindset - you get why HR needs to serve the business, not just tick boxes
-   Confidence to advise managers clearly and, when needed, tactfully push back
-   Comfortable with HR admin and systems, with an instinct for making processes faster and simpler
-   CIPD Level 3 or 5 (or working towards it) is a bonus, not a dealbreaker

Sound like you? We'd love to hear from you.
