Job description

This organisation is entering a significant period of growth and transformation, and they are now seeking an experienced HR Projects specialist to drive forward complex, high-impact change initiatives. This is a specialist position, not a generalist one, suited to someone who is genuinely energised by the delivery side of HR and skilled at turning strategic intent into well-structured, well-governed outcomes.

If you're an HR Project Manager with a strong track record of leading people-related change within unionised settings, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Own and deliver the HR elements of wider business change initiatives, from initial scoping through to successful completion
• Lead on TUPE transfers, organisational restructures, and changes to working arrangements and practices
• Work closely with specialist HR functions to ensure smooth, joined-up implementation
• Lead formal consultation processes and maintain strong working relationships with trade union representatives and wider stakeholders
• Ensure all activity remains compliant with employment legislation and internal policy at every stage
• Serve as a go-to expert, offering sound guidance on complex or sensitive HR issues

What We're Looking For

• Substantial experience leading HR projects (TUPE, restructures, reward, terms and conditions)
• Solid grounding in employment law and recognised HR best practice
• Background working within unionised organisations
• Strong communication skills and the ability to manage stakeholders at all levels
• CIPD qualification at Level 5 or above

Equity, diversity, and inclusion are integral to everything that we do. We are committed to these values and they are central to our mission. We encourage applications from all backgrounds and communities, and we are more than happy to discuss any reasonable adjustments that you may require
