Senior HR Manager (Social Care / Schools) - fixed term contract
We’re entering an exciting new chapter. Following a recent restructure, we’re focused on redefining the way we grow and thrive - together.
We are looking to recruit 2x CIPD qualified Senior HR managers to provide services across our Adult Social Care and Children’s Directorates, and Schools. One role will be on a 2-year Fixed Term Contract and the other will be a 1-year Fixed Term Contract.
The grade of PO8, £61,980 to £65,478, reflects the seniority of the position.
About The Role
You will provide strategic leadership in the management of an effective and highly professional team to deliver customer-focussed HR services to Directorates and to our schools.

About You

As a strategic thinker, you will be adept at developing and implementing HR strategies that not only meet the current needs of the business but also anticipate future challenges and opportunities.
Excellent communication skills are essential, as you will be building relationships at all levels across the organisation, ensuring that HR is seen as a trusted partner in achieving business success.
