The Role:
Ready for a varied supervisory role at the heart of a busy team? As a Senior HR Advisor, you’ll build your skills and knowledge as you deal with different transactional matters daily.
Our front-line HR advisory service supports colleagues across the Council, giving expert advice and guidance. Supervising a team, you’ll ensure that it provides high quality customer service, responding to diverse queries. Together, you’ll advise on HR policies and procedures via phone, Teams calls , email and in writing while taking on a range of related administrative tasks. Employment changes, pay, pensions, resignations – you’ll tackle them all efficiently.
Day to day, you’ll be updating HR records, liaising with Payroll and other HR colleagues and supporting improvements in processes and self-service. That means familiarising yourself with a number of HR systems and policies, while building great working relationships. If you’ve got what it takes – including motivation, good organisation and exceptional people skills – we’ll give you the support to achieve CIPD qualification (if you don’t have this already). Meanwhile, you’ll learn and progress as deputy to the HR Transaction Team Manager.

- Practical experience in an HR/Payroll team
- The ability to supervise, and motivate team members to meet quality and efficiency standards
- Customer focus and the drive to achieve high standards
- The ability to create and build effective relationships with a range of managers, stakeholders and professional staff
