In general, it is the responsibility of an HR specialist to manage employee relations, recruitment and selection processes, learning and development, reporting and administration as well as rewards.
For an HR manager key responsibilities often include, but are not limited to the following:
  • Influencing, coaching and guiding management through employment law and employee relations matters then advising on best practice solutions.
  • Managing employee sickness and absence policies and processes.
  • Managing the end-to-end recruitment process.

Key HR skills

Working in human resources it is essential that professionals possess a people-focused mindset. Client service is a key skill in the HR function. Those who are patient and tolerant, resilient, strong influencers and skilled at building strong lasting relationships make excellent HR specialists.
In addition to this, being highly organised is essential for those wanting to excel in the HR function as is effective communication, both verbal and written, and attention to detail.
Most HR teams work collaboratively, so professionals who are good team players are highly sought after. It is also important, however, that professionals are just as effective and capable of working independently when required.

Most HR advisor roles will advertise for a graduate with a relevant degree and/or appropriate professional qualifications. The CIPD offers a number of professional qualifications and short training courses for those looking to start their career in HR or upskill to progress.
HR managers will typically be degree and CIPD qualified with up-to-date knowledge of employment legislation and best practice policies as well as prior experience working within the particular sector providing HR solutions and leading a team.
