You'll also play an active part in bringing our People initiatives to life from Learning & Development to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging, to Wellbeing. Your coordination will help ensure these programmes are meaningful, accessible, and engaging for all colleagues.

You'll work closely with a supportive, collaborative People team who will guide you, listen to your ideas and give you the space to take ownership and grow. You'll build trusted relationships across the business, share your insights to help shape future improvements, and contribute to an excellent, reliable People service that we can all be proud of.

The scope of this role is broad and varied. You'll support around 280 people across four Focusrite companies based in the UK, Hong Kong and Australia with occasional involvement in other Group entities.

If you're looking to grow your HR career in a friendly, forward‑thinking team, then we'd love to meet you.
