In addition the HR Advisor will work on the delivery of project based outcomes to support the delivery of the Strategic HR Plan and also provide “critical” administrative “back up” support to the HR Coordinator as required.

The HR Advisor will be the main point of contact for the management teams across Travelex and have a strong reporting relationship to the HRBP who will coach and provide support/guidance to the HR Advisor on a day to day basis.

  • Support managers in resolving probation related issues
