In a hybrid role, with an office base in the historic city of Winchester, you'll join a collaborative and supportive team as a Senior HR Adviser, partnering with headteachers, senior leaders and school governors.

Our vision is to be a trusted, leading provider of education personnel services, delivering outstanding and responsive solutions tailored to our customers’ needs.

We are the HR consultancy of choice for over 700 maintained and academy schools across Hampshire and neighbouring local authorities. With more than 30 years of experience, our team brings in-depth knowledge and expertise, ensuring schools receive the highest quality professional HR support.

Applications for part time hours may be considered, however a minimum of four days per week (29 hours) is required.

Our Interview process includes:

A 10-minute presentation (topic provided in advance)
A case study exercise
A 40-minute panel interview

What you’ll do:

Provide expert, pragmatic HR advice on complex employee relations matters
Manage a diverse and complex caseload, supporting schools to navigate challenging situations with confidence
Help enable schools to take decisions that are legally sound, fair and aligned with policy and best practice, taking into account options and risk

This is a role where your judgement, professionalism and people skills will make a genuine impact on not just leaders but also the lives of children and young people.

What we’re looking for:

We're looking for an experienced and confident HR professional who can provide expert, pragmatic advice on complex employee relations matters and support schools to make fair, legally compliant decisions.
