Hi
I recently started a new HR role in an sme that has offices globally. The role is that of business partner. I knew that HR would operate differently here because the business model is all about empowerment and autonomy leaving business leaders to operate as they wish.
After a few months in I'm concerned that my role is limited in scope. I recruit, organise training, organise appraisals, do benefits admin and general new starter paperwork and onboarding facilitation. This includes some of the international offices.
Any other projects that I am involved in are again without much HR insight because it is up to the business leaders to think for themselves and not be constrained by any detail or additional elements.
I feel like my role is that of an administrator, organiser and facilitator. It's all about systems and processes. I don't feel I have any avenue to provide insight or views. I'm concerned that I will become rusty when it comes to providing coaching and advice to managers as well liaising with Directors about business decisions.
Is my job title over inflated and will it set my cv back?
Thanks
Catherine
