People & Culture Specialist, Planning and Delivery

Description

Angel is the home of stories that amplify light. Millions of people can help choose which films and series we make next, and that changes how the work feels: creators and audiences build each project together, and the story behind the story matters as much as what ends up on screen.

We're a team that cares about work and about each other. If you want to help build something that Amplifies Light, we'd love to meet you. Join us and be part of stories that amplify light!

The People & Culture Specialist, Planning and Delivery is an experienced People & Culture professional whose assignment is the team's projects. You know how HR work gets done, and you use that to plan it, build it and see it through.

The team runs many projects at once, including system implementations and builds, program launches, and governance and compliance work, on top of the day-to-day. You'll sit in the project meetings, help build the plan and the assignments for each one, follow up so the work gets done, and own a list of People & Culture assignments yourself.

You'll work closely with People & Culture leadership, including in confidential meetings, and help manage the team's priorities and workload. You'll also back up the team's front-line specialist when Team Member questions need covering.

Done well, this work means the team always knows what's due and who owns it, projects land on time, and nothing People & Culture has promised falls through the cracks.

• When faced with roadblocks, mistakes or unforeseen circumstances, consistently and proactively find creative solutions and break down barriers to handle the challenge. The focus is on building, testing, learning and resolving, not on getting stuck or placing blame.
