Working in the heart of the Council, you’ll provide proactive HR support to our People & Places service, including advice on a wide variety of employee relations matters.
You’ll need to understand the service's needs and challenges to be able to provide appropriate solutions, so the ability to build strong working relationships with managers is essential.
You’ll develop our supportive and empowering culture here at Sevenoaks and ensure a consistent approach through the application of HR policies and practices.
As an HR Business Partner, you’ll support the HR Assistant to develop and grow in their role, providing them with exposure to different HR disciplines. Ideally, you will have worked in the HR Business Partner role before, and you will have experience in dealing with complex employee matters. In return, we can offer you the opportunity to be involved in exciting HR projects, not least preparing the organisation for Local Government Reorganisation.
This role will be based at our Council Offices, Argyle Road, Sevenoaks, Kent, TN13 1HG. We currently operate a hybrid working model for the majority of our roles, where your working time will be divided between the office (2-3 days) and home working (2-3 days).
What’s in it for you?
We are one of the few local government authorities to hold Platinum Investors in People accreditation – our commitment to supporting and developing you is genuine and ongoing.

* Enhanced annual leave of 31 days (excluding bank holidays)
