A challenging and exciting HR Manager opportunity has arisen for a dynamic, experienced and qualified HR professional at Thorpe Underwood Services Ltd., which includes Queen Ethelburga's Collegiate; situated between York and Harrogate, Queen Ethelburga's is ranked as the North of England's academically most successful, independent co-educational day and boarding school.

Set in over 100 acres of manicured country park in the Vale of York, their supporting Charitable Foundation maintains a range and quality of facilities few can equal, with over GBP80m invested in new resources in recent years including a new Sports Village and a refurbishment of boarding accommodation.

Many people contribute to the ongoing success of Thorpe Underwood Services Ltd. and Queen Ethelburga's, with over 800 teaching and support staff, and 1700 pupils all playing a role in making Queen Ethelburga's what it is today.

They now seek to appoint an experienced HR Manager to provide outstanding HR provision, and maintain the high standards of the School. The successful candidate will be responsible for all HR processes and procedures throughout the company, and provide generalist HR advice and support to all managers across the business. Additionally, you will ensure that the business is fully compliant with Safer Recruitment and that the Single Central register is accurate and fully up to date, as well as having an overview of all employee relations and provide advice on any employment regulation updates, HR processes or staffing. The role will report to the CEO.

The ideal candidate will be a commercially astute, CIPD Qualified and experienced HR Generalist, with a minimum of 3 years' experience gained delivering an efficient and effective HR service in an educational setting. You must have demonstrable experience of managing a significant range of HR issues, including grievance and disciplinary matters. Additionally, the successful candidate will have experience of autonomous working, of developing and implementing HR polices, and an understanding and application of employment law to policy development. You should also have experience of formulating and implementing new policies. You will be responsible for managing a team of two HR professionals, and so previous team management experience would be highly advantageous, as would knowledge of child protection / safeguarding, motivation to work with children and young people, and an ability to form and maintain appropriate relationships at all levels with both employees and pupils.

This is a fabulous opportunity for an experienced HR Manager to support a highly successful, well-established business and help achieve its full people potential.

In addition to a generous basic salary and an opportunity to work in a fabulous setting with free on-site parking, Thorpe Under Services Ltd. also offer employees a range of benefits including a free staff gym, annual free family summer barbecue, and an annual free black-tie Christmas Ball for staff and a guest.

Thorpe Underwood Services Ltd. is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. You will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure.
