London, United Kingdom University of Bristol Full time
The role

The University of Bristol is one of the most prestigious and successful Higher Education Institutions in the world. Ranked 55th in the QS World University Rankings, it has an outstanding reputation as a centre of academic excellence that makes a major positive impact.

The University teaches around 30,000 students, employs over 8,000 staff and has an annual turnover approaching £1billion. With 27 academic schools across three Faculties, the university is a large and complex organisation that sits at the heart of one of the country’s most vibrant and exciting cities. Whilst the institution plays an important role in the life, economy and society of the city and the wider region, it is also a university of both national and global significance.

The University of Bristol’s Chief People Officer (CPO) shapes workplace experience of our staff, playing a pivotal role in aligning the University’s aspirations and values with our actions. The CPO is central to the promotion of an innovative, inspiring and supportive workplace where talented staff from diverse backgrounds can reach their full potential and deliver on the University’s strategic ambitions.

Leading the people division, the CPO will ensure that the size, shape and capabilities of the division meet the University’s people needs in pursuit of outstanding teaching and research as well as global and civic engagement. A member of the University Executive Board, the role leads on the delivery of our transformative programme of equality, diversity and inclusion, developing the organisation-wide capability required to meet Bristol’s 2030 strategy.


You should apply if

Suitable candidates can come from any sector, but wherever they are now, they will be enthused by the University’s mission, ambition and purpose. The next CPO will have wide-ranging HR leadership experience gained in a comparably large and complex organisation, and they will have led successful, cutting-edge transformation that has made a demonstrably positive difference to the performance, success and working lives of a large workforce.

We've appointed Korn Ferry to assist with this search.
