• About the role


  • Home, a place where you belong
    Are you looking to build a career in HR with a specialism in reward?

    This is your chance to step into a varied role that helps shape how colleagues experience pay, benefits and recognition. You’ll turn complex information into clear, practical guidance, use data to provide meaningful insights, and help make our reward offer engaging and accessible.

    If you’re looking for variety, responsibility and the opportunity to build on your existing reward experience, this is a great opportunity. 

    What you’ll do
    • Support our Reward Manager to deliver a brilliant reward and benefits offer for colleagues
    • Manage our colleague benefits and recognition programmes, creating engaging communications that increase awareness and participation
    • Review and develop our benefits offer, taking a lead role on contract renewals, supplier management and tender processes.
    • Support annual reward activities including salary reviews, pay benchmarking and pay gap analysis.
    • Provide clear, practical guidance on reward, pensions and benefits to colleagues and managers

    Why join us?
    You’ll be part of a team that cares about making work rewarding for everyone. You’ll get hands-on experience across a broad range of reward, from pay and benchmarking to benefits, recognition and colleague communications. 

    We’ll support you to build your knowledge, develop your analytical and commercial skills, and grow your career in reward. We can’t offer a CoS for this role

    You have
    • Previous experience in an HR, benefits or reward role
    • Strong communication skills, with the ability to make complex information clear and easy to understand
    • Strong analytical skills, with the ability to bring together different data sources, identify trends and model potential impacts
    • A proactive approach to solving problems, improving processes and sharing knowledge
    • The ability to build effective relationships with colleagues, managers and external suppliers

    Stronger together
    We do our best work when we’re ourselves. That’s why inclusion, wellbeing, and our diversity networks help make Home Group a great place to work!

    The practical bits 
    • Our core hours are between 9am and 5.30pm.
    • Working on a hybrid basis with 2 days per week in our central Newcastle office, with the rest from home. Our anchor day is a Tuesday.

    What’s in it for you?
    • 34 days leave, rising to 39 (this includes bank holidays and a “me day”).
    • 2 paid volunteering days each year
    • Health cash plan saving you (and your children) £1140+ each year covering dental, opticians, prescriptions and more
