Make a difference as an Employee Relations Advisor

At PGL Beyond, we're all about creating amazing experiences - not just for our guests, but for our people too. As our new Employee Relations Advisor, you'll be right at the heart of that mission, helping to shape a positive, fair and supportive working environment across the business.

Working closely with our Senior Employee Relations Advisor, you'll be the go-to person for expert advice and guidance on all things employee relations. From handling complex cases, to supporting line managers and ensuring our policies are spot-on. You'll help us stay aligned with best practice and current legislation, while keeping things people-focused.

You'll also get stuck into monitoring compliance and using data to spot trends and drive improvements. It's a role where your insight will make a real difference - and where your voice will help shape how we do things at PGL.

We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team; so, we are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments to make it easier to complete. Simply email or call us with detail around the adjustments you need.

However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal records check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually.
