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.
