HR Business Partner (Part Time) - Glasgow

 

Are you ready to take full ownership of a strategic people agenda across two dynamic Ports? We’re looking for a seasoned Human Resources Business Partner to lead the people plan for our Clydeport and Dublin cluster — a role that offers autonomy, influence, and exposure to the full operation of the business.

Your role

 

As a key member of the leadership team, you’ll shape and deliver the end-to-end people strategy for Clydeport and Dublin, coaching and supporting senior leaders to elevate organisational capability, performance and culture.

 

You will champion Group HR priorities while tailoring them to local needs, bringing best in class HR practices to life in this standalone role.   You will work collaboratively as a trusted advisor to the team to influence stakeholders at all levels. You will mentor and develop an HR Advisor, fostering their growth and capability. 

 

This is a high-impact, strategic position where your voice will be heard and your expertise valued.  The role is available to work 4 days per week.

Who are we?

 

Already one of the UK’s leading port and logistics companies, we are planning substantial capital investment over the next 5 years to achieve our vision of becoming the UK’s leading port operator.  We have ambitious plans to grow and transform the supply chain to benefit our customers.  Our investments are decarbonizing our operations, which in turn is helping us work towards our goal of having Net Zero Port Operations by 2040.  Much of our success depends on our unrivalled facilities and technology. But in our sector, it comes down to having the right talent to enable our organisation to grow.

What you’ll bring

 

You’re already operating at HR Business Partner level and will bring:

 

  • Proven experience in strategic business partnering and stakeholder management;
  • Confidence to influence and drive change;
  • A strong grasp of Group HR frameworks and how to localise them effectively;
  • Solid Trade Union experience — essential for this role;
  • A passion for leadership development and coaching.

What we can offer you

 

In addition to a competitive salary, we have a strong track record of developing our people to expand their skills and experience and develop their careers.  Valuing and rewarding our workforce is important to us which is why we offer a fantastic range of flexible benefits to choose from, such as:

 

  • 27 days holiday per annum (plus bank holidays)
  • Matched Pension Contribution up to 10%
  • Peel Ports Flexible Benefits including salary sacrifice car scheme, healthcare cash plans, Cycle2Work Scheme, critical illness insurance, gyms, retail vouchers
  • Commitment to learning and personal development 
  • We promote good physical and mental health and can provide additional support to colleagues via our employee assistance programme when required

 

If you believe you have the skills and experience we are seeking and you want to join a thriving and ambitious place to work, we’d really like to hear from you!
