WHAT IS A HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER?

We use our significant knowledge and expertise to provide professional and consistent advice and guidance to managers and staff on a wide range of people issues, ensuring that they are aware of current legislation, best practice, and our organisation’s policies and procedures.

Our role can be challenging and sometimes we need to have difficult conversations with colleagues. But it is varied and exciting and can involve many diverse tasks and responsibilities.

We manage a diverse and sometimes complex range of employee casework, including responsibility for recruitment and progression as well as grievances and redundancies for all employees working within our organisation.

We know our employees are our organisations most valuable asset, so we ensure we maximise the value obtained from employees and work to help them to develop professionally.

We love to see people grow and develop in their careers and having the opportunity and privilege to further people’s development in the workplace and fulfil their potential is one of the most rewarding aspects of the role. However, we need to ensure there are rigorous procedures in place and we set clear and fair targets for improvement.

We use our up to date knowledge of employment law to develop HR policies and procedures which drive performance and mitigate disputes. We continuously monitor and review these to ensure we’re implementing best practice.

We foster an environment where all employees feel valued and included. This makes our organisation an attractive place to work for a diverse pool of potential candidates.
