A London local authority is looking for an experienced Interim Head of Talent Resourcing to provide senior leadership across its recruitment and resourcing service during an important period of change. This is a senior Head of Service-level assignment, operating at a level comparable to Assistant Director. Reporting directly to the HR Director and joining the HR leadership team, you will lead a small established team and take immediate ownership of several critical resourcing priorities. The authority has a lean HR function, and the talent and resourcing leadership role has been vacant for an extended period. It therefore needs someone who can quickly understand the service, establish clear priorities and provide both strategic direction and visible, hands-on leadership. Immediate priorities include addressing recruitment pressures across children’s and adults’ services, improving turnaround times and leading a significant agency-to-permanent conversion programme involving more than 100 roles. There is also a wider requirement to reduce unnecessary agency reliance and ensure interim and contingent labour are used in a more targeted and financially sustainable way. The role covers the full resourcing service, including permanent and contingent recruitment, recruitment campaigns and marketing, safeguarding and DBS requirements, onboarding, recruitment systems and management information. You will review current performance and ways of working, strengthen standards and accountability and ensure the service is prepared for changes in employment legislation affecting recruitment. You will work closely with directors, senior managers and HR colleagues to resolve immediate delivery issues while helping to shape the authority’s longer-term approach to talent and resourcing. You will also lead and support four direct reports, building confidence within the team and ensuring the service works effectively with the wider HR function. We are looking for someone who has: Operated at senior Head of Resourcing, Head of Talent Acquisition or Assistant Director level within a large and complex organisation. Led both the strategic and operational delivery of an in-house recruitment or resourcing service. Significant experience of local government or a closely comparable public-sector environment. Managed high-volume and hard-to-fill recruitment, ideally within children’s services, adult social care or another safeguarding environment. Led agency-to-permanent recruitment programmes and work to reduce reliance on contingent labour. A strong understanding of safeguarding, DBS requirements and employment legislation affecting recruitment. Demonstrable experience of improving recruitment performance, turnaround times, processes and management information. The ability to lead an established team while working collaboratively as part of a wider HR leadership function. The confidence to provide credible advice and challenge to directors and senior leaders. Strong working knowledge of both TalentLink and iTrent. Experience of these systems is essential. This role will suit an accomplished senior resourcing leader who is comfortable moving between strategic leadership and immediate operational delivery. You must be able to establish credibility quickly, work collaboratively with the existing team and take ownership from the outset. The assignment is initially for three months, with the likelihood of extension, and sits inside IR35. The expected rate is around £600 per day, with some flexibility for an exceptional candidate. Attendance on site three days per week is essential, and candidates should be available to start at short notice

I'm working with a London local authority embarking on a significant organisational transformation programme, with real investment behind it and a clear commitment to improving the way the organisation works, develops its people and delivers services. They're looking for an experienced Senior Change & Organisation Development Lead to play a key role in that journey. This is a broad, visible and genuinely influential position where you'll work across multiple transformation programmes, helping senior leaders navigate change, strengthen leadership capability and build an organisation that's better equipped for the future. If you're looking for another role where you're producing strategy documents, facilitating the occasional workshop and moving on to the next project, this probably isn't it. This organisation is looking for someone who enjoys making things happen. You'll work alongside senior leaders and programme teams to ensure the people side of change is every bit as strong as the operational delivery. That means designing practical organisation development interventions, supporting organisational design, developing leadership capability, improving engagement and helping services adopt new ways of working that genuinely stick. You'll have the opportunity to influence major organisational decisions, challenge established thinking, introduce new approaches and help create an environment where continuous improvement becomes part of everyday business rather than another corporate initiative. The Opportunity This role offers an unusual level of variety and exposure. One day you could be working with senior leaders on organisation design and leadership capability, the next supporting a transformation programme, designing engagement approaches or using organisational insight to understand what's working, what's not and where further intervention is needed. You'll work across multiple services, build strong relationships throughout the organisation and become a trusted partner to leaders responsible for delivering complex organisational change. It's a role that combines strategic thinking with practical delivery and would suit someone who enjoys operating in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve and no two weeks are quite the same. About You You'll already have significant experience delivering organisational development and change within a large, complex organisation. You'll understand how organisations respond to change, how leaders influence culture and how successful transformation depends on bringing people with you rather than simply introducing new processes. You'll be comfortable working with senior stakeholders, able to build credibility quickly and confident enough to offer constructive challenge where needed. Most importantly, you'll be someone who enjoys turning ambition into delivery and understands that successful change is measured by what people actually do differently, not by the number of strategies produced. You'll bring experience of: Leading complex organisational change and transformation programmes. Organisation Development, Organisation Design and leadership development. Supporting cultural change and organisational effectiveness. Developing practical change and engagement approaches. Influencing senior stakeholders and building trusted relationships. Using organisational insight, diagnostics and feedback to shape interventions. * Embedding sustainable change within large, complex organisations. Local government experience would be welcomed, although candidates from other complex public sector or highly regulated environments with significant organisational change experience are equally encouraged to apply. Why This Role? This is more than a two-year fixed-term contract. It's an opportunity to join an organisation that has made a genuine long-term commitment to organisational improvement and has the leadership support to make meaningful change happen. For the right person, this is the chance to leave a lasting legacy, work on programmes with real visibility and play a central role in shaping how a large organisation develops over the coming years
