Everyone deserves a decent place to live – join Habitat for Humanity Great Britain as our new Head of People, and support people to find a decent, safe, affordable home

We are looking for an experienced senior level HR professional, with a strategic mindset and people management experience. Reporting to the Director of Finance and Compliance and working in close collaboration with the National Director and others, your role will be both strategic and operational: shaping our people agenda and ensuring our HR systems and processes are of the highest quality.

You’ll be joining us at a really exciting time as we’re on an ambitious transformation journey, providing you with the opportunity to directly influence and develop new ways of working and impact our performance. In collaboration with the senior management team, you’ll help shape and implement our people and development plans to support employee and volunteer engagement and a positive and inclusive working culture.

You’ll be comfortable being hands-on, balancing between strategic and operational priorities. You’ll be familiar with driving best practice, transforming and streamlining processes, with a success record in developing and implementing strategic and operational people plans.

You will bring a positive ‘can do’ attitude to the role and be able to provide sound advice and guidance with regard to all aspects of HR such as reward, coaching, employee relations, culture, organisational design and change, performance management, and learning and development.

If this sounds like it could be a good match for you, please take a look at the Candidate Pack .
