• Support the delivery of the People Agenda by working alongside the Head of People and Culture to execute objectives that support the wider priorities of the People Function.
• Promote fairness, consistency and an excellent employee experience at every opportunity.
• Coach and advise managers to set meaningful development objectives for their teams and individuals.
• Implement training sessions and development programmes that inspire our people to do their best work.
• Create and deliver engaging learning resources that build management capability and support organisational development.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Comprehensive knowledge of UK employment law.
• Demonstrable experience of implementing policies, procedures and organisational change.
• Experience supporting organisational restructures, consultations and TUPE transfers.
• Experience supporting contractor populations and an understanding of contractor compliance and IR35 requirements.
