Head of Talent I Strategic HR Directors | Helping businesses achieve their growth targets faster

Commercial, dynamic, energetic, creative, curious, pragmatic, influential, inspiring, kind.... do these words describe you? If yes, then this is a fantastic opportunity to join and collaborate with like-minded HR Director superstars in the People Puzzles Fractional community.

Where?

Our Scotland team is now looking to add some more team members to join us to service clients across Edinburgh and surrounding areas (Falkirk, Dunfermline, Stirlingshire and surrounds).

Who are you?

A highly successful CPO/People/HR Director that loves to help businesses unlock their potential and drive through people solutions that change lives. You might be looking for an alternative to corporate life and are excited to work with SME businesses/entrepreneurial leaders on a fractional basis?

Yes, you are technically (HR) astute, but notably you understand business and feel completely at home building and executing a business strategy to flow through to a People strategy.

You may want more control over your working life? Perhaps you have dipped your toe into the consulting world... and now you are looking to take the plunge? You love to collaborate and you are looking to join a network of like-minded, commercial People Directors who are there to support each other and ultimately SME business owners.

You...

* enjoy building trusting relationships (board level and down);
* like your 'trusted advisor/professional friend' status;
* tend to always exceed expectations and wow!
* are seeking to have a more flexible work-life balance
* thrive in a fast-paced environment.

Read the full profile here on our website.

Main Responsibilities:

Lead the delivery of business and HR solutions to our client businesses:

* Business and strategic HR planning, culture change, business transformation, change management, leadership development, organisational design, D&I, wellbeing, L&D and Talent Management
* Work with the Regional Director and our marketing team to support the process for attracting and gaining new clients

Skills & Experience:

* Proven experience inputting into the strategic direction of the business & partnering with the Board & Senior Executive team
* Ideally be CIPD (L7) qualified or equivalent
* Credible and able to "connect" with and influence SME sector business owners
* Commercial - you are a business person "who does HR". You see the big picture
* Pragmatic, you work strategically but are happy to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in

We believe in “Team”. We attract individuals who can put their energies into being part of our team and fully embrace all aspects of working as part of our local and national teams.
