Job Description:

We need a hands-on HR generalist to lead HR and payroll end-to-end, someone leaders trust when a situation is sensitive and the answer can’t wait.

The role:

  • Advising senior leaders on employee relations, absence, probation and performance
  • Running payroll: employee changes, statutory payments, pensions
  • Managing safer recruitment, pre-employment checks and the Single Central Record
  • Turning messy admin into simple systems that work
  • Keeping us ready for inspection

You’re probably who we’re looking for if:

  • You have HR management or generalist experience with UK employment practice
  • You’ve run or managed payroll, including statutory and pension requirements
  • You’ve handled recruitment and pre-employment checks (Safer Recruitment training, or the willingness to complete it promptly)
  • You’re comfortable with HR databases and management information
  • You know discretion isn’t a skill, it’s a standard
  • You stay calm under pressure and anticipate what needs to happen next

A plus: CIPD, a payroll qualification (such as CIPP), and experience in an education setting.
