We are an outward looking charity with a compelling reputation for delivering professional support services to young people in South West London coupled with the motivation to develop new and innovative responses to young people’s mental health needs. This was particularly tested when the Covid pandemic forced us to quickly pivot all our provision to remote working. However, we met the challenge, training staff in new ways of working and integrating new offers that have now become part of our ongoing work supporting children and young people’s mental health.
Post-pandemic, the well-documented rise in mental health needs amongst young people has resulted in unprecedented levels of demand for our services. Nationally, the need to modernise and transform mental health services alongside the need to increase service capacity has been recognised and, as a result, we have expanded our staff team and broadened the range of mental health interventions we offer to young people. At our core is a commitment to strong active engagement with young people and creating support that’s relevant, flexible and accessible. Young people need to be ‘at the heart’ of all our service design and we’re committed to making sure young people are able to ‘get help now’ when they first reach out for it, at the point of need rather than availability.
Job Purpose: The purpose of the post is to take responsibility for the HR oversight, day to day HR matters and the overall HR management of the charity.
The role will require initially regular meets on the sites with the CEO & Senior Management Team to build relationships, understand current processes and to establish and implement a best-in-class HR service to managers and employees across the organisation, allowing the CEO & Senior Managers to focus on the essential strategic management of the charity.
We envisage the first 6 months being a comprehensive review & reset of the charities HR policies, procedures and protocols.
This will be a part-time role for 21 hours per week across 3-4 days. This role will be busy, interesting and provide an opportunity for you to make your mark within the charity. You will have line management responsibilities for a part time HR administrator who you will be working closely with.
To succeed in this role, you must demonstrate that you have the necessary skills, knowledge and practical experience to perform effectively. You should also hold a CIPD Diploma-level qualification and have a thorough, up-to-date understanding of current UK employment legislation.
Your strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail should enable you to manage documentation and records effectively, ensuring processes run smoothly and efficiently.
We are looking for a self-starter and someone with a demonstrable positive approach that has the ability to always remain calm and consistent with personnel at all levels, but capable of dealing with difficult situations.
It is essential you have excellent English speaking and writing skills. You must have demonstrable skills for writing policy, procedures, letters, reports etc., and you must also be able to work in Office365 with confidence.
