- Success in this role will come from being practical, credible and comfortable working close to the detail while helping leaders make clear people decisions at pace.
- Experience supporting transformation or change from an HR perspective, organisational design, consultation or workforce transition activity with real people impact.
- Sound employee relations judgement, with the ability to balance compliance, risk, commercial priorities and employee experience.
- Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, including the confidence to coach and guide people leaders through sensitive or ambiguous change.
- The ability to translate broad transformation objectives into practical people plans, actions and communications - leveraging your technical ER and WR knowledge.
- A collaborative, resilient and low-ego style, with the maturity to work across a complex and evolving business,



to pivot when required and to take the initiative to act without direction.

Why this role For an experienced HR professional with a strong transformation and change background, this is an chance to work close to meaningful enterprise change while supporting the Senior People Transformation Lead to turn strategy into practical, credible and well-managed people outcomes. You’ll gain exposure to senior stakeholders, complex transformation activity and work that has real people impact — without carrying the full accountability for the broader transformation agenda.
