Job description:
Are you an experienced HR Advisor with a passion for recruitment? Could you use your skills in our small and supportive HR team in the Diocese of Worcester?
This is no ordinary HR role! You will be a key player within our transformation programme; we aim to be a numerically larger Church in 2030. Strategic plans and targeted funding mean our parishes are recruiting and employing new people. Your mission will be to keep their progress on track and provide excellent advice and support. You will join an established HR team, work alongside our transformation team and benefit from excellent resources to support your work. Day to day you will:
- visit and advise parishes across Worcestershire and Dudley as they embark on or continue their recruitment journey
- provide practical advice, accessible for settings that often have not had experience of recruitment or employing people; demystifying the essentials will be very important
- walk with our parishes as they continue managing employment lifecycles, holding HR casework and employee relations matters
If you enjoy a fast-paced role where you have a high level of autonomy, then this role will be for you. The job will suit a natural networker who enjoys problem solving and delivering practical solutions. Our ideal candidate will:
- be able to apply their advice within the context of the working structures of the Church of England
- be prepared to travel widely across our diocese; it is a hands-on role
- have previous HR advisory experience and an HR qualification
The Diocese of Worcester is a great place to work with excellent holiday allowances and a very good pension. We want to give those who work for us the flexibility to balance their work and home lives well.
Salary: £21,000 per annum (£35,000 FTE) plus a generous non-contributory pension
Hours: Part time, 21 hours per week: Talk to us about how this could fit into your life.
Location: This post will be based at the Diocesan Office in central Worcester with some home working possible and will require travel around the Diocese.
This is a fixed term role for 4 years (unless extended)
