HR Manager

Human Resources Salisbury £45k pro rata 28 hours per week Permanent Genuinely flexible & hybrid working

If you're an experienced HR professional looking for a senior role with genuine influence, but without the rigidity that can sometimes come with it, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

ReQuire Consultancy are exclusively working with a highly regarded, values-led organisation in Salisbury to recruit a Head of Human Resources.

This is a senior and trusted appointment, reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer and sitting as a member of the Executive Team. You'll take ownership of the people agenda, advise senior leaders and play an important role in shaping culture, developing people and ensuring the organisation remains a positive and supportive place to work.

But what really makes this opportunity stand out is the environment you'll be joining.

This is a warm, down-to-earth and trusting organisation where flexibility really does mean flexibility.

• The role is 4 days a week (28 hours), with genuine flexibility how this is structured.
• There will naturally be occasions when you'll want or need to be on site, meeting managers, supporting colleagues or attending Executive Team meetings, but there isn't an expectation that you need to be in the office simply for the sake of it.
• There's plenty of opportunity to work from home, and you'll be trusted to manage your time according to the needs of the role.
• That could mean working predominantly from home during school holidays, adjusting your days or hours at different points in the year, or establishing a regular pattern that works particularly well for you.
• It's a grown-up approach built around trust, communication and getting the job done.
• For someone who wants to retain the responsibility and influence of a senior HR career while creating greater balance around life outside work, that's a significant part of the appeal.

You’ll be the organisation's senior HR professional, supported by a part-time HR Officer and working closely with the COO, Executive Team and managers.

This is a broad generalist position combining strategic HR with hands-on operational support. You'll have the autonomy to shape the HR function while remaining close enough to the organisation and its people to see the impact you're making.

• Acting as a trusted HR adviser to the Executive Team and managers
• Providing practical advice across employee relations and employment law
• Supporting complex and sensitive people matters
• Developing and maintaining HR policies, processes and good practice
• Overseeing recruitment, onboarding, contracts and induction
• Supporting performance, absence, disciplinary and grievance processes
• Developing learning, training and staff development
• Supporting workforce planning and organisational resilience
• Contributing to reward, remuneration and job evaluation
• Monitoring HR information including turnover, absence and appraisals
• Supporting safer recruitment and safeguarding practices
• Managing and developing the part-time HR Officer
• Ensuring HR practices remain compliant and fit for purpose
• Bringing the people perspective to wider organisational strategy
