Be the link between the business and the business of HR

Together with our partners, local organisations and residents, we’ve created Lambeth. It’s a bold, shared vision for Lambeth with real ambitions that will help us deliver sustainable change. You’ll be a key part of this — not only by taking on one of our most senior HR roles but also as a vital connection between our diverse directorates and our HR and OD service.

Reporting to the Director of HR & OD, you’ll sit on the management team for your directorate, where you will influence and direct all HR activities to meet business needs.

We have an ambitious culture change programme emphasizing the importance of people’s roles in enhancing the lives of our residents. This workplace transformation focuses on getting the basics right and understanding the moments that matter to perform at your best.

You’ll work in partnership with leaders, key stakeholders, and HR colleagues to deliver HR plans and solutions aligned with the council’s needs and priorities. You’ll be recognized as the departmental HR and OD expert, advising and guiding managers and staff, and providing high-level people management and development support across directorates.

You will need a solid knowledge of employment legislation, HR best practices, workforce planning, and skills development. Your understanding of talent management processes will be essential, along with proven HR Business Partner experience. A data-driven approach to decision-making, backed by skills in change management and organizational development, will be vital, especially in implementing change quickly.

Building strong relationships with directors across the organization, as well as within HR and OD, will set you apart. You’ll consider the big picture of HR and OD requirements to prioritize and source solutions, and you’ll excel at explaining complex problems clearly. As a collaborator, you’ll be deeply connected to your values and how to embody them in the workplace.

If your energy, values, and ambitions align with ours, join us as we embark on an exciting new chapter and help us shape the future for the next generation.
