Business Partnering: Act as a trusted advisor and credible challenger to leadership teams, providing expert HR insight and driving strategic decision-making.
Talent & Early Careers: Collaborate with CoE teams and managers to assess workforce needs and design effective talent solutions, including recruitment, succession planning and early careers programmes.
Performance & Development: Drive a high-performance culture by embedding effective performance frameworks, supporting managers to set clear expectations and develop their teams.
Organisational Development & Change: Identify opportunities to enhance organisational effectiveness and lead change initiatives that strengthen business capability and performance.
Compensation & Benefits: Partner with the CoE to ensure reward frameworks remain competitive and aligned with talent attraction and retention objectives.
Employee Engagement & Wellbeing: Champion initiatives that foster a positive, inclusive culture and enhance engagement and wellbeing across the workforce.
Compliance & Policy: Ensure policies, processes and practices are legally compliant, consistent, and aligned with best practice standards.
