It’s an exciting time to be a part of Direct Line Group; we call it ‘DLG 2.0’ With the arrival of our new Group CEO, we’re going to see a refreshed strategy and lots of change and transformation in 2024. We have ambitious plans to revolutionise insurance again - with meaningful changes to how we service the people who matter, our customers.

**What you’ll be doing**:
As a Senior People and Talent Partner, you will partner with one or more Group Executive Committee (ExCo) members and their leadership teams to provide commercially-focused HR counsel and advice both strategically and operationally. These are broad and critical roles within the organisation, within which you will provide strategic counsel, challenge and insight to stakeholders and with a remit including transformation and organisational design, strategic talent management and being involved in projects working closely with our HR Change Hub and HR CoE's.
- ** Strategic Advisor**: Developing an intimate understanding of the key strategic business goals, challenges and opportunities and the different commercial and people levers that influence them.

You will also play a key role in leading the Talent and Leadership agenda across the business, in service of the wider Future Skills and Talent strategies.
- ** Influential Storyteller**: You will work across HR and the business to influence and input into key decisions through clear communication and relationship building. You’ll proactively share business knowledge and insight with HR colleagues, and actively support in shaping and embedding BAU HR activity across business areas.
- ** Data-Driven Problem Solver**: You will solve problems through the interpretation and manipulation of data and be able to build compelling and credible narratives using various data points.
- ** Organisation Design**: You will deliver future-focussed organisation designs which enable diversity, future skills, and capability to be built and talent developed, always with the customer in mind.
- ** Independent Voice**:You will navigate between the needs of ExCo and the overall needs of HR and the business, maintaining an independent perspective to ensure all decisions are aligned to key strategic priorities and business need. You will act as the gatekeeper of all change activity, leading initial discussions with business stakeholders to shape change proposals and associated activity. You will provoke thought, challenge and influence stakeholders to ensure all viable options have been considered.
- ** Trusted Coach**: People Partners have a unique position at the intersection of strategy, organisation, and talent; a key element of the role is giving advice and coaching to critical stakeholders. Working with ExCo, you will identify the development needs of senior leaders in business areas and will work with the Head of Talent and Leadership to agree individual and team solutions and build development plans.
