Job description

A rapidly growing national education group is seeking an exceptional HR leader to help build the next stage of its business.

This is not a traditional HR role. We're looking for someone who has successfully built, scaled or transformed organisations—someone who combines commercial awareness with the energy to roll up their sleeves and make things happen.

You'll be equally comfortable shaping strategy and delivering it, creating structure without bureaucracy, and driving change in a fast-moving entrepreneurial environment.

The Opportunity

• Help shape the next phase of growth across a national education business
• Build scalable systems, processes and operational capability
• Recruit and develop high-performing teams and a culture of accountability
• Work closely with the CEO as a trusted partner in delivering ambitious growth plans

What You'll Lead

• Operational HR leadership across a growing multi-site organisation
• Business transformation and organisational development

We're Looking For Someone Who Has

• Built, scaled or transformed a growing organisation
• Successfully delivered significant organisational change
• Built teams through periods of rapid growth
• Created high-performance cultures with clear accountability

Background

We welcome applications from HR leaders who have gained experience in education, professional services and people businesses.
