Location: Reading Civic Offices, Reading
Working Pattern: Full-time with hybrid working arrangements

Reading is one of the UK's most successful and dynamic urban areas, home to a thriving economy, diverse communities and ambitious plans for the future. At Reading Borough Council, we're committed to delivering high-quality services for our residents while continuing to modernise, transform and improve how we work.

We're looking for an accomplished HR leader to join our senior HR leadership team and help shape the future of our organisation.

This is a pivotal role, providing strategic direction and professional leadership across our Strategic HR Business Partnering and HR Advisory services. Working closely with the Director of HR & OD, senior leaders and elected Members, you will influence workforce strategy, organisational transformation and people-related decision making across the Council.

As a key professional authority, you will ensure the organisation receives high-quality, commercially aware and legally robust people advice that supports both organisational performance and positive outcomes for our communities.

About the role

Reporting to the Director of HR & OD, this is a senior leadership position with responsibility for leading our Strategic HR Business Partnering and HR Advisory functions.

You will play a critical role in shaping organisational effectiveness, workforce sustainability and leadership capability across the Council, helping to ensure our workforce is equipped to meet current and future challenges.

You will:

You will bring:

Significant experience advising senior leaders, boards, executives or elected Members on strategic workforce issues
A strong track record of delivering organisational design, workforce planning and complex transformation programmes
Extensive knowledge of employment law, governance, employee relations and organisational risk
Experience working within local government or another complex and highly regulated environment
The ability to influence, challenge and build credibility at all levels
Proven leadership experience, developing teams and delivering high-quality outcomes through others

Most importantly, you'll be someone who combines strategic thinking with practical delivery, builds strong relationships and thrives in a complex and evolving environment.

Why Reading?

This is an opportunity to make a genuine impact.

You'll join an ambitious council serving one of the most vibrant and diverse communities in the UK, leading a high-performing team at a time of significant organisational transformation and improvement.

You'll work alongside talented colleagues, influence major strategic decisions and help shape the future workforce of an organisation that is committed to delivering excellent services for residents.

Our offer

We offer a supportive and inclusive environment where innovation, collaboration and professional development are encouraged.

In return, you'll benefit from:

Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
31 days annual leave plus bank holidays, rising to 33 days after 10 years' continuous local government service
The option to purchase additional annual leave
Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
Life assurance of three times annual salary (for LGPS members)
