  • Autonomous Work: Work independently, making professional decisions in challenging situations.
  • Travel: Regular travel within Herefordshire to attend school meetings, often at short notice.

Experience & Skills Required:
  • Proven experience in managing and resolving complex HR casework.
  • Strong knowledge of employment law and HR best practices.
  • CIPD qualification preferred, or equivalent experience.
  • Excellent time management and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions in high-pressure situations.

Benefits:
  • 26 days of annual leave plus Bank Holidays, increasing to 31 days after 5 years of service.
  • Aviva salary sacrifice pension scheme.
  • Flexible benefits scheme, including retailer discounts, option to buy/sell annual leave, cycle-to-work scheme, and healthcare plans.
