Regional Human Resources Manager

Job description

Regional HR Manager (Scotland)

Covering Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport • Holiday Inn Edinburgh • Glasgow Argyle Hotel

Three hotels. Hundreds of moments. One person who makes the difference: you.

In hospitality, the guest experience is only ever as strong as the colleague experience behind it. If you’re an HR professional who loves being close to the action — coaching leaders, building confident teams, and shaping a culture people genuinely want to be part of — this could be your next brilliant move.

We’re looking for a Regional HR Manager to support three busy Scottish hotels, partnering with GMs and Heads of Department to create a high-performing, people-positive environment where standards are clear, support is real, and development is a daily habit — not a once-a-year tick box.

The impact you’ll have

This is a hands-on, commercially aware role where you’ll balance warmth with backbone — bringing calm, consistent HR leadership across multiple sites while keeping a strong pulse on what teams need to thrive.

You’ll be a trusted advisor to hotel leadership, helping to strengthen performance, engagement, retention, and capability — all while ensuring we operate safely, fairly, and in line with best practice and employment legislation.

What you’ll be doing (the good stuff)

People partnership & culture

• Be visible across all three properties — building relationships quickly and becoming the “go-to” for managers and teams.
• Champion engagement, recognition and wellbeing initiatives that genuinely land in a hotel environment

Employee relations & case management

• Lead and support ER activity end-to-end (disciplinaries, grievances, absence management), coaching leaders to handle matters confidently, consistently and fairly.

Talent, hiring & onboarding

• Partner with leaders on workforce planning, recruitment needs, and smooth onboarding — ensuring new starters feel welcomed, clear, and set up to succeed from day one.

Learning, development & performance

• Help leaders grow leaders — supporting performance conversations, development pathways, and practical training that improves capability on the floor

Change & projects

• Support people-focused projects across sites — from organisational change to operational improvements — bringing clarity, structure and empathy through transition.

What we’re looking for

You’re the kind of HR professional who can switch comfortably between a sensitive colleague conversation and a robust performance plan — and do both with confidence.

Experience & capability

• Proven HR generalist/manager experience (ideally hospitality, retail, leisure, or another fast-paced multi-site environment).
• Strong knowledge of employee relations, with the judgement to advise leaders decisively.
• Confident coaching style — you don’t “do HR to people”; you enable managers to lead well.
• Comfortable using HR systems and data to spot trends and drive improvements.

Qualifications (ideal, not essential)

• CIPD qualified (or working towards / equivalent experience).

Practical

• Happy to travel regularly between Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport, Holiday Inn Edinburgh and Glasgow Argyle Hotel (this is a visible, present role).
