We're excited to be partnering this fast paced and market leading business in East Hertfordshire in a newly created role to take ultimate ownership of what is already an impressive People function. Sitting at Board/Exec level, this is a tremendously dynamic business and one which needs a highly commercial and strategic People leader to shape strategy, drive best practice policy and ensure that the business is ahead of the curve with all of it's people oriented initiatives.
The successful applicant will be empowered and given the mandate to make change within the business where necessary – our client has already made incredible inroads to ensure that they're highly valued by top talent and existing employees alike, but want to continue to push boundaries to stay at the top of their game. Being given the ultimate responsibility for all People strategy, it is essential that you've held such responsibility before and as such have complete confidence in your ability to deliver positive change in pressurised, rapid growth oriented environments.
Key duties include:
- Ownership of all People strategy, reporting into the Managing Director.
- Leadership of an established and ambitious team of People professionals.
- Understand the strategy and commercial requirements of the business, delivering progressive change and best in class people policy to support the delivery of the company's vision.
- Mentoring, coaching and developing the team to ensure a solid succession plan is in place across People functions.
- Represent the business in commercial opportunities where progressive people strategy is closely aligned to the growth of the business.
Having advanced their own people agenda immeasurably in recent years, this is a wonderful opportunity to inherit great work, but continue to build on and shape it as the growth of the business develops – the business has already got market leading policy on health, well–being and diversity at the top of it's agenda so you'd be coming into a business that's already progressive in it's outlook, especially for one based outside of the City.
A flexible, hybrid working environment is in place albeit with a stunning office environment for an SME; the business wants it's People lead to be relatively visible as you'd expect, so applicants must be within a reasonable commute to the office location a few times per week accordingly.
Both commercially driven, but highly people focused in it's make up, this is a superb opportunity that is rarely available on the local market for an already established senior People leader, to make their mark and drive the business forward in the process.
