At Pivot we believe children deserve better. In our academies we teach and support children and young people from Key Stages 1 – 5 who have been excluded from school, for whom mainstream education is simply not working, or those with an EHCP who require a specialist placement. Every day our teams do incredible work, making a huge difference to some of the most complex and challenging children, many of whom come to us with traumatic backgrounds.
We have a number of sites across Kirklees and Leeds and to support the growth of Pivot, we are expanding our central team.
We are currently seeking a proactive and professional HR Officer to join the HR team. Working alongside the Associate Director of People, you will provide guidance and support to managers on a wide range of HR issues from performance management to attendance. Day to day, you will be responsible for all operational aspects of HR related processes, including recruitment, the on boarding of new staff and maintaining accurate data and filing systems.
We are looking for someone with a confident and positive approach, who has the ability to work and stay calm under pressure. The ideal candidate will have the ability to establish and build relationships across all our sites, whilst providing a professional HR service. Experience working within an education setting is desirable but not essential for the role.
This is an exciting opportunity at Pivot to gain generalist HR experience within a growing, fast paced organisation.
This role can be based at either one of our central team hubs in Leeds or Kirklees, with regular travel expected across the sites.
