As HR Director you will:

Lead the HR team (3 HR Business Partners, 2 HR Advisors and 1 HR Assistant) following a recent restructure.

Significant HR leadership experience, ideally at Director or senior Head of HR level
Experience of strategy development and delivery – particularly in learning & development (designing programmes, measuring impact)
