We've looking for a HR Policy & Compliance Coordinator to join us for a period of 12 months. 

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with detail, structure and governance, and who wants to build their experience in HR policy, compliance and quality assurance within a supportive and collaborative environment.

The Role

As a HR Policy & Compliance Coordinator, you’ll support the development, maintenance and delivery of our policy governance framework across Corporate Services. Working closely with the HR Policy & Compliance Senior Specialist, you’ll help ensure our policies are well‑managed, compliant and easy for colleagues to understand and use.

You’ll play a key role in coordinating policy review cycles, maintaining documentation and templates, supporting audit readiness, and making sure stakeholders are engaged at the right time. Through your work, you’ll help strengthen governance standards and improve the overall colleague experience.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting the rollout and ongoing maintenance of HR and Corporate Services policies, ensuring they follow agreed templates, standards and governance requirements
• Coordinating policy review cycles, tracking SLAs and stakeholder input, and escalating issues where needed
• Updating and formatting policy documents so they are clear, accessible and aligned with Irwin Mitchell’s tone of voice
• Carrying out first‑level quality checks to ensure accuracy, consistency and compliance before sign‑off
• Maintaining version control, audit trails and governance records to support audit readiness
• Providing simple management information and insights, such as review progress, recurring issues or emerging themes
• Supporting colleagues with guidance on policy processes, templates and governance expectations
• Helping to identify risks, gaps or delays in policy reviews and raising these appropriately

We’re looking for someone who is organised, detail‑focused and confident working with written content and governance processes.

You’ll ideally have:

• Experience supporting policy administration, document governance or similar coordination work
• Strong written skills, with the ability to draft, edit and proofread clear and accurate content
• A basic understanding of employment law and regulatory requirements
• Confidence managing deadlines, workflows and SLAs
• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to quality checking
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft 365 and HR systems
• The ability to gather, summarise and present simple data or insights

Experience of audit processes and working within legal or financial services would be an advantage but isn’t essential.
