Head of People - Brighton

HR Manager - Brighton Based

Here at the Black Rock Restaurants Group, we are looking for a generalist HR expert who has an innovative and creative approach and is a hands on manager. Working closely with the rest of the senior team to focus on organisational development, recruitment and L&D, bringing together Company business objectives into relevant and people related strategies/processes.

About the Company:

Our obsession with going above and beyond is inspired by the Persian concept of "Nooshe j n". Used in a similar way to "bon appetit", it also has a deeper meaning that translates more like "may it nourish your soul". Because the experience we want to create goes way beyond a nice meal. We talk about our drinks, service, and atmosphere because we know they're as important to customers as our food.

Every detail, from the quality of the ingredients, to the lighting, acoustics, and the pacing of the meal, feeds the feeling of well-being our customers leave with.

Founded by acclaimed Brighton-based restaurateur Razak Helalat, the Black Rock Restaurants Group comprises Brighton's The Salt Room, The Coal Shed in London and Brighton, Burnt Orange and most recently, Tutto.
