Are you passionate about delivering exceptional HR support that truly makes a difference? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, people-focused environment where your ideas and insights are valued? If so, we want to hear from you!
As part of a HR Delivery team, you'll be providing a first line response service to over 1,300 of your colleagues and People Leaders in the UK, delivering an extraordinary customer experience offering advice and guidance on a diverse range of people related queries. This could be on any part of their journey at OS, helping people navigate our Workday ERP system, supporting recruitment, queries on pay, leave, terms and conditions, benefits and allowances, policies and procedures.
Our People experience is at the forefront of our thinking and to support this we're continuously improving, whether that be by designing and implementing experience-led journeys, adding to our self-service capabilities or ensuring we're providing the most accurate support and advice. Through trend identification and analysis, you'll help us understand where we can improve upon and enhance our HR offering. You'll be able to get involved in all of this and also participate in other projects we have lined up.
