What's the brief?

You’ll be joining a purpose-driven organisation with a collaborative, values-led leadership team. The culture is grounded in curiosity, accountability, and continuous improvement. In this role, you’ll take ownership of improving HR systems, data and workflows, starting with a deep diagnostic of current processes to identify where things can be better.

Sitting at the intersection of systems and people operations, you’ll partner with stakeholders to translate organisational needs into practical, scalable solutions, driving end-to-end improvements across the employee lifecycle.

You’re analytical, solutions-focused, and confident in engaging stakeholders to drive change. You bring experience across HR systems, processes and the employee lifecycle, and you’re self-directed, curious, and motivated to leave things better than you found them.

• Policy & Compliance: You’ll support the development and uplift of people policies and frameworks to ensure alignment with organisational and regulatory standards.
