You will need to be confident to use/maintain/report from the HRIS (Kronos).
Reporting directing to our Chief Operating Officer, you will lead our supportive, warm and high performing HR team which includes generalists, recruitment and administrators. The team works collaboratively, and you will need to be comfortable to lead and direct, as well as sometimes work hands on.
You will need to be independent and able to lead well, fostering a supportive and cooperative style at all times. This is mainly an on-site based role with occasional home working, your own choice of main base will be between our Herts, Beds or Rutland sites and you will need to travel across all sites as and when required.
