Our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we recognise that opportunities for too many people remain a condition of their sex, ethnicity, class, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation – or a combination. This has never been acceptable to us as an organisation. We don’t just accept difference, we value it, celebrate it, nurture it and we thrive because of it.

We’re on a journey to be reflective of the diverse children, young people and families we support. We know we aren’t there yet, and we’re passionately committed to taking actions and making changes to be a truly diverse, inclusive and equitable organisation. This includes taking anti-oppressive action and removing barriers in our recruitment practices. We particularly welcome applications from members of minoritized communities. Our Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging strategy will tell you more.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value AI adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to tell us about your skills and experiences in your own voice.

Accessibility

We’re committed to providing reasonable adjustments throughout our recruitment process and we’ll always aim to be as accommodating as possible. Please let us know in your application form of any adjustments or access requirements we could make to help you with the application process and interview.

Employee Relations Specialist - 3-Month Contract

Location: Central London, near St Pauls and Bank - Hybrid (3 days per week in the office)
Contract: 3 months, with potential for a permanent opportunity
Day Rate: £200-£400 per day via Umbrella company, dependent on relevant experience
Start Date: ASAP - ideally by the end of August, latest 7 September

Are you an experienced Employee Relations Specialist who thrives in a fast-paced, complex organisation? Do you have strong ER case management experience, including complex cases, and a good understanding of Workday?

We are recruiting for a hands-on Employee Relations Specialist to join a large, international technology and professional services organisation with approximately 2,000 employees in the UK and 15,000 globally.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an established HR team of around 20 people and play a key role within a busy HR Shared Services environment. The organisation has a fast-paced, sales-driven culture, so experience of working in a large and complex environment with multiple stakeholders is essential.

The Role

This is a hands-on, non-managerial position suited to an experienced HR/ER professional. In consultancy terms, we're looking for someone operating at Senior Consultant level rather than Manager level.

You don't need previous leadership or management experience. Instead, you'll need to be confident managing a busy ER caseload independently, dealing with complex employee matters and working effectively in a fast-paced, commercially focused environment.

You'll work closely with managers and stakeholders, providing practical and knowledgeable advice across a range of employee relations matters while ensuring cases are managed consistently and in line with UK employment legislation.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage a high-volume Employee Relations caseload from start to finish
• Handle ER cases (occasionally complex), including disciplinary, grievance, performance and absence matters
• Provide practical, confident advice to managers and stakeholders
• Support performance management and absence management processes
• Review and interpret changes to employment legislation and assess their impact on the organisation
• Support TUPE activity and associated employee relations matters
• Manage and respond to queries through ServiceNow, the organisation's HR ticketing system
• Use Workday as the core HRIS and support the creation, review and implementation of HR templates
• Review and improve HR processes, documentation and templates
• Work collaboratively within the wider HR Shared Services function
• Build effective relationships across a large and complex organisation
• Manage competing priorities effectively in a fast-paced environment

Essential Experience:

The key experience we're looking for is:

1. Strong ER Case Management Experience
You must have substantial experience managing ER cases independently, with experience handling complex ER matters being a major advantage.

2. Workday Experience
Previous experience using Workday is essential. This is the organisation's core HRIS platform.

3. TUPE Experience
You'll need practical experience of supporting or managing TUPE processes.

4. Large, Complex Organisation Experience
Experience working within a large and complex organisation is essential. International organisation experience would be a significant advantage. Experience within a large organisation of several hundred employees or more is preferred.

You'll also ideally have:

• Experience working within a fast-paced, commercially focused environment
• Strong performance and absence management experience
• Experience within technology, professional services, sales or another similarly fast-paced environment is useful, although sector background is less important than organis
