- Salary: Up to £53,000 per annum
We are seeking a pragmatic and commercially minded People Business Partner to join our team in leading the strategic and tactical delivery of the People plan to the business across assigned regions (London / South East).

- Supporting and coaching managers on all things people
- Partnering leaders in the design, scope and delivery of large and complex people change
- Delivering key people initiatives across the broad people spectrum including workforce planning, organisational design, talent acquisition, talent management, reward and engagement
- Being data driven in both your questioning and decision making
This role is ideal for a candidate who:
- Has experience leading large-scale people change initiatives.
- Excels in stakeholder management and coaching.
- Thinks critically and commercially about people decisions.
- Has worked in large organizations, preferably with a branch or store network.
- Can influence and challenge decisions effectively.
- Leads and motivates teams through change.
- Is comfortable with frequent regional travel and visiting multiple locations on a regular basis.
What We Provide to you:
- Up to £53,000 per annum depending upon experience
