Location: London (Hybrid - 3 days in office)

Are you an experienced HR professional with a strong background in financial services? Are you adept at navigating complex employee relations cases, driving operational HR strategies, and influencing senior leadership in a matrix environment? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

About the Role

On behalf of my client, a leading financial services house, I am recruiting for a Senior HR Business Partner to support corporate functions across multiple regions. This is a high-impact, operationally focused HRBP role that will partner with leaders across corporate functions. The position requires a confident HR professional who can effectively manage employee relations, compensation processes, and collaborate with Centres of Excellence (CoEs) on strategic initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

Act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders providing expert HR guidance on people management, employment law, and best practices.
Oversee complex employee relations (ER) cases, ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.
Support and drive cyclical HR processes, including performance management, talent identification, and succession planning.
Work closely with CoEs (Talent Acquisition, L&D, Compensation & Benefits, HR Ops) to design and implement HR strategies.
Contribute to organisational design efforts to align structures with business objectives.
Foster a strong working relationship with leadership teams, providing day-to-day HR support and strategic input.
Navigate an evolving HR landscape, driving engagement and managing change within a dynamic environment.

What We're Looking For

Experience: 5-10 years of HRBP experience, preferably in financial services.
Expertise: Strong tactical and operational HR capabilities, particularly in ER case management and compensation.
Adaptability: Ability to thrive in an evolving and complex business structure, with experience in corporate functions (not just front office roles).
Influence: Proven ability to work with senior leadership, build trust, and drive HR initiatives effectively.
Global Perspective: International experience is beneficial but not essential.

Why Join?

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a pivotal role in an organisation undergoing transformation. You'll work in a dynamic and evolving HR structure, gain exposure to senior leadership, and contribute to shaping people strategies across corporate functions.
