We’re looking for a motivated and collaborative Business Partner to join our Colleague Communications & Experience (CC&E) business partnering team, supporting the People & Places (P&P)/Group HR function. This role is ideal for someone who’s built strong foundations in communications or engagement and is ready to deepen their business partnering skills: working closely with senior colleagues to land clear, human communications that support transformation, simplification and a better colleague experience.

You’ll help turn complex priorities into messaging that makes sense, support leaders to communicate with confidence, and contribute to high-impact moments across the P&P portfolio.
