• Mentoring and supporting line managers, acting as first point of contact for HR queries and management support.
• Researching and implementing cost-effective HR tools to simplify working practices and add value for clients.
• Representing AAB at external events and supporting marketing and sales activities.

About You

To thrive in our dynamic environment, you will demonstrate the following skills, experience and qualities:

• Applied knowledge of HR practice, employee relations and legislation with the ability to translate into practical advice for clients (minimum 2 years' experience).
• Excellent communication and listening skills, able to explain complex ideas clearly and concisely to clients.

• Highly organized with good attention to detail and the ability to multitask.
• Willingness and ability to travel to office locations and client sites as required.

This is a fast-paced role in a growing company and duties may evolve. You will have opportunities to be involved in a broader range of activities and to be mentored by Senior Consultants.
