Fixed term maternity cover until June 2019 (also available as a secondment opportunity)
The role
Central to achieving the LGA’s aims is effective people management and this broad role is part of a small HR & payroll team. Reporting to the HR & OD Adviser, you will support the development and implementation of effective strategies to enhance organisational performance within the LGA. This will involve delivering a truly customer focused service, driving improvements in organisational performance, supporting change management, and providing professional advice to managers across the full spectrum of HR issues.
The role will see you take responsibility for the coordination and support of national recruitment campaigns delivered by the HR & Payroll team for the wider LGA. This includes the National Graduate Development Programme (ngdp) and Returner programmes (such as Return to Social Work).
You will also be involved in developing and managing our HR information database (Agresso) to ensure workforce information is accurate and up-to-date.
The requirements
Although not essential, you are likely to be a CIPD member and you will bring a demonstrable track record of generalist experience, including significant exposure to change management, organisational development and employee relations.
Experience of Local Government would be helpful but is not essential for the role, however the ability to work as part of a team with a positive ‘can do’ attitude is.
