Stadler has been building trains for over 80 years. Thanks to our innovation, strength, flexibility and reliability, we are a leading manufacturer of rail vehicles today. Around 13,000 employees work at several production and engineering sites and at over 70 service locations in Europe, North America and North Africa.
Stadler Rail Service UK Limited (SRS UK) is a subsidiary of Stadler. SRS UK provides a train maintenance service for a growing number of clients in the UK. In the next few years over 150 new Stadler trains will be joining the UK Rail Network which signifies the start of an exciting future for Stadler in the UK. Our current depot locations are in Cardiff, Glasgow, Liverpool, Newcastle and Norwich offering a wide scope of opportunity for someone looking to develop a career in the UK Rail Industry.
We are looking to appoint a Regional HR Business Partner (12 month maternity cover) to join our HR Team. As a centralised function, the team supports all UK based sites and this role offers the opportunity to take ownership of your own sites to support on people related matters.
The role will be based at our Newcastle depot and given the regional nature of the role, travel to dedicated sites is expected on a frequent basis therefore applicants must be flexible to travel as needed. The role will qualify for our flexi scheme and hybrid working, with the option to work from home 2 days per week. A 36 hour contract, covering Monday to Friday.
The HR Function operates on a business partnering model and this role offers the opportunity to work closely with onsite management, providing a value add “hands on” partnering service through engaging proactively with Senior Managers and Supervisory staff within a heavily unionised and regulated sector.
The successful candidate will need to demonstrate strong coaching and advisory skills which can be applied to managers at all levels and across a range of HR topics, including employee relations matters, sickness, recruitment and talent development. The role will require engagement with third parties such as recruitment agencies and Occupational Health providers therefore relationship building is key, both internally and outside the organisation.
