The HR Business Partnering team is seeking a dedicated, self-motivated, and professional HR Officer to join our Cumbria and Lancashire team on a fixed-term basis, ending 31 August 2026.
This role is primarily based in Broughton, Preston, with the option for some remote working. Regular travel across the Cumbria and Lancashire region will be required, including visits to other Trust locations such as the Fleet Workshops in Haydock and Bury, and the Trust Headquarters in Bolton.
As an HR Officer, you will deliver a comprehensive and proactive HR service to managers and staff. You will work closely with local management teams and HR Advisors, providing expert advice and guidance on a wide range of employee relations issues. Key responsibilities include supporting disciplinary investigations, managing grievances, and contributing to organisational change initiatives.
A central aspect of this role involves supporting effective absence management. This includes participating in sickness review meetings, offering guidance to managers, and analysing data to identify areas requiring additional support.
North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust provides 24-hour, 365-days-a-year accident and emergency services to those in need of emergency medical treatment and transport.
Our highly skilled staff provide life-saving care to patients in the community and transport patients to hospital or a place of care if needed.
We also provide non-emergency patient transport services for those who require non-emergency transport to and from hospital and are unable to travel unaided due to their medical condition or clinical need.
Alongside other emergency services, we work to ensure public safety and patient treatment in the event of a major incident.
We also deliver the NHS 111 service in the North West, which provides non-emergency medical help 24/7. NHS 111 replaced NHS Direct in 2013 to make it easier for people to access NHS healthcare services in England.
