HR Advisor – People Operations
Salary: £25,200 - £31,800
Location: Triangle, Cambridge
Full Time, Fixed Term contract until the 31st July 2025 (Available as a secondment opportunity for internal candidates)
Occupying a critical role in the People Operations team you will support the management, administration and co-ordination of UK Visa & Immigration (UKVI) and Right to Work (RTW) processes, whilst providing advice and guidance to key stakeholders across Cambridge.
This is a great opportunity to build on skills already gained from working in a generalist HR, compliance role or similar, whilst learning and developing on the job to acquire new skills and experience across all areas related to UKVI and RTW at Cambridge, including project-related activities, as we continue to establish these core capabilities.
We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge.
About the role
Cambridge holds a licence with the Home Office, enabling us to sponsor and recruit employees who require a skilled worker visa. As a Level 1 user of the Home Office's Sponsorship Management System (SMS), you will support employee processes, records, and applications using this platform. You will also develop internal process improvements to ensure we meet our UKVI obligations to the highest standards.
This role is essential in delivering a first-class recruitment offering for Cambridge.
Key Accountabilities:
*
Creating and Supporting Records: Maintain internal and Home Office (SMS) records for all employees joining Cambridge through the UKVI route, ensuring accurate information management throughout their lifecycle.
*
Managing Right to Work Processes: Support the management of Right to Work processes, including visa expiry dates, renewals, employee onboarding, and record-keeping requirements under our UKVI sponsorship licence.
*
Providing Advice and Guidance: Offer advice and guidance to managers and employees on UKVI and sponsorship matters, working closely with HR Business Partners, Talent Acquisition, and other internal stakeholders.
*
Leading or Supporting Projects: Lead or support project work that contributes to the policy and processes of the UKVI operating and governance framework, ensuring compliance and auditability in delivering UKVI and Right to Work related services.
About you
We are looking for an individual with experience in compliance or regulated environments, where high standards of governance and risk management are essential. You should have a keen eye for detail and accuracy, especially when working with people systems and third-party platforms.
As a confident communicator, you will thrive in building collaborative relationships and supporting others through coaching and guidance to enhance employee self-service.
Your ability to lead or contribute to project work, with a focus on our administrative and record-keeping processes, is crucial. You will bring experience in process improvement activities, ensuring that outputs are implemented effectively.
Due to working with UK home office on-line systems, and to remain compliant, the role is only open to settled status or British / Irish passport holders.
If you would like to know more about this opportunity and what will make you successful, please see the full job description attached to the bottom of this vacancy on our careers site.
Rewards and benefits
We will support you to be at your best in work and to live well outside of it. In addition to competitive salaries, we offer a world-class, flexible rewards package, featuring family-friendly and planet-friendly benefits including:
*
28 days annual leave plus bank holidays
*
Private medical and Permanent Health Insurance
*
Discretionary annual bonus
*
Group personal pension scheme
*
Life assurance up to 4 x annual salary
*
Green travel schemes
We are a hybrid working organisation, and we offer a range of flexible working options from day one. We expect most hybrid-working colleagues to spend 40-60% of their time at their dedicated office or location. We will also consider other work arrangements if you wish to work more flexibly or require adjustments due to a disability.
Ready to pursue your potential? Apply now.
We review applications on an ongoing basis, with a closing date for all applications being Monday 6th January 2025 although we may close it earlier if suitable candidates are identified. Interviews are scheduled to take place soon after this date.
Please note that successful applicants will be subject to satisfactory background checks including DBS due to working in a regulated industry.
Please note, Cambridge University Press & Assessment is unable to sponsor this role under the Skilled Worker Visa route as it does not meet the minimum skill requirements.
Why join us
Joining us is your opportunity to pursue potential. You'll belong to a collaborative team that's exploring new and better ways to serve students, teachers and researchers across the globe – for the benefit of individuals, society and the world. Sharing our mission will inspire your own growth, development and progress, in an environment which embraces difference, change and aspiration.
Cambridge University Press & Assessment is committed to being a place where anyone can enjoy a successful career, where it's safe to speak up, and where we learn continuously to improve together. We welcome applications from all candidates, regardless of demographic characteristics (age, disability, educational attainment, ethnicity, gender, marital status, neurodiversity, religion, sex, gender identity and sexual identity), cultural, or social class/background.
