We are a global leader with over 50 years’ experience, helping businesses operate more safely, responsibly, and efficiently through our specialist cleaning, waste, and environmental services. Across our international business, we support customers with critical operational needs while helping reduce environmental impact. Backed by private equity and headquartered in London, we operate across 15 countries and work with over 2,000 colleagues. As we continue to grow the ability to make strong, commercially sound people decisions matters more than ever. We’re hiring a Senior HR Business Partner - Group & Executive to act as a trusted adviser on senior Employee Relations matters while helping our CPO drive organisational people strategy across our global workforce. This is not a conventional HRBP role. It sits close to the centre of the business, partnering senior leaders on sensitive people issues, helping manage risk and compliance, and contributing to complex change across a growing international organisation. You will be a key voice on senior ER, policy, people risk and organisational judgement - with the credibility to influence at the right level and the confidence to operate in ambiguity. Alongside the ER core, this role also gives you real breadth: organisational people strategy, HR projects and programmes, policy development, global collaboration, communications, reward support and business change. You will also use people data and HR KPIs to create insight, support decision-making and prepare clear updates for senior management and Board-level discussions. In a PE-backed company, pace, resilience and judgement matter. This role is for someone who can think clearly, act decisively and help leaders navigate complexity well.
