Here at innocent, we’re on a mission to make it easier for everyone to get more fruit and veg into their bodies. We started back in 1999 and since then we’ve gone from selling a few smoothies at a music festival to becoming one of Europe’s biggest drinks companies with around 1,000 people (and the B Corp seal of approval).

It’s nice to be able to say things like that but we’re not patting ourselves on the back just yet. We want to show everyone that it’s possible to be a successful business while looking after people and the planet too, so we’re trying to get better in pretty much every way. And that’s where this job comes in.

We’re on the lookout for a brilliant People Partner (that’s our name for HR Business Partner) to join our team in a part time job share role (22.5 hours over three or four days) . This role sits within our People team and operates as a job share with another People Partner, jointly partnering our UK & Ireland Go-To-Market Team and our Marketing team.

We know that great partnerships are key to success - and that’s just as true in our people team as it is across the wider business.

Here’s what you’ll be responsible for:

• Working at the very heart of innocent, partnering with our London-based teams to shape and deliver the people agenda.
• Owning and driving a broad mix of people initiatives - from organisation design and workforce planning through to developing managers, leading change management, talent management, employee relations, and supporting performance and reward processes.
• Building strong relationships with board directors and their teams, acting as a coach, sounding board and trusted adviser to help leaders make thoughtful, well-balanced decisions for their people and for the business.
• Playing a key role in our wider people agenda - helping us stay agile, strengthening our culture as a great place to grow a career, and championing our inclusion and diversity commitments.

We’re on the lookout for someone who is passionate about HR - a ‘true doer’ who’s able to get stuck in and can navigate between the operational and strategic parts of the role. A great candidate for this role will be:

• Experienced in HR business partnering in a business that is fast paced, including all aspects of HR (employee relations, talent management, engagement, performance and reward).
• A great communicator and brilliant listener, seeking to understand the business from all angles
• Able to think strategically, join the dots and identify patterns and root causes to drive meaningful change.
• Forward thinking, using data to proactively identify issues and opportunities.
• Flexible in your approach and able to prioritise in a busy role.
• Able to coach a junior member in the team.

You’ll get

This is a great opportunity to work right at the heart of our business, alongside enormously talented people who shape what makes us unique. Our values are integral to how we operate and, within the People team, we take our role as guardians of those values seriously, so a strong personal connection to what we stand for is important.

We want innocent to be a great place to work, so we do lots of stuff to make people feel at home and try to make sure everyone’s career is shaping up the way they want it to. There are plenty of opportunities to have a go at something new or take things further.

In exchange for helping us do business in the right way, you’ll get a solidrewards packagethat includes a salary (phew), private healthcare, a target-based bonus, and a bunch of other nice things like a day off on your birthday. And yes, you get free smoothies.

We also know that not all our drinkers come from the same background, or think the same - so why should we? At innocent, we want to be a great place to work where a diverse bunch of people from all backgrounds can turn up and thrive. When we hire, we want all the juice, bits, and pulp that make you who you are.

Even if you don’t think you can tick all the boxes, if the job sounds right for you, come and throw your hat in the ring.

Probably best to get your skates on though, as we might close this early if we get loads of applications.
