HR Business Partner

About the role

As an HR Business Partner, you'll drive significant change programmes and strategic initiatives. Directly influencing, advising and supporting senior leaders on implementing complex change, you'll collaborate on an organisation-wide scale to embed HR basics, deliver value for money and support increasing inclusivity within the Home Office to allow us to better meet the diverse needs of our workforce.

On a day-to-day basis, you'll act as the people lead in the development of organisational design, structures and resource plans, advising on options for appropriate talent and resourcing initiatives and supporting senior leaders with Employee Relations.

About you

An established HR professional with significant experience of working with senior business leaders to design and implement business and people strategies, you'll hold a CIPD qualification (minimum level 5). You'll have the ability to use an evidence-led approach to shape, create and implement new people approaches across a diverse workforce, and have experience of analysing and interpreting complex data to inform decision-making, plans and activities.

On a personal level, you'll have excellent communication, decision-making and influencing skills. You'll be adaptable, able to prioritise competing deadlines in a busy environment and lead your teams and your collaborators through ambiguity and organisational change. You'll be passionate about creating welcoming, supportive, and efficient workplaces that put the needs of our people, and the people they support, at the heart of decision-making.

For an ambitious HR professional, the scope, benefits and opportunities within this role are immense.

Locations and working arrangements

HR Business Partners are aligned to the geographical regions of the business areas they partner, with a degree of flexibility attached due to a combination of flexible working from home, as part of a non-contractual arrangement, and a requirement to be on-site. Travel across regions to multiple ports/offices/locations is expected, and a flexible office base may be possible at a location within a geographical region.
