HR Business Partnering Lead
This is an exciting opportunity to join Plymouth Community Homes at a pivotal point in our journey.
As we’re about to launch a new 10-year Strategic Business Plan and continue to focus on our People as a major element of our strategy, we're reshaping our People & Culture function to ensure we're ready to support the ambitions of our organisation, our colleagues and the communities we serve. As part of that transformation, we've created a new HR Business Partnering Lead role.
What we are looking for:
We're looking for an experienced and confident people leader who wants the opportunity to influence, shape and build. This is more than a traditional HR leadership role; it's a chance to help define what strategic business partnering looks like at PCH, lead a talented team through its next chapter, and play a key role in delivering organisational change, leadership capability and colleague experience across the business.
You will need to have:
* Strategic people partner leadership experience
* Project design and delivery at a high level
* Ability to think outside the box whilst keeping our people and our organisation safe and able to be their best and authentic selves
What you will be dong:
As HR Business Partnering Lead, you'll lead our HR Business Partnering function, setting the direction, standards and expectations for Senior HR Business Partners, HR Business Partners and HR Advisors. You'll work closely with senior leaders across the organisation, helping them anticipate challenges, build capability and make confident people decisions that support both performance and culture.
This role offers a unique opportunity to help shape a newly formed leadership team within People & Culture, influence the future direction of the service and leave a lasting impact on how we support colleagues and leaders across PCH.
