We recognise that our people are integral to achieving this mission and wish to ensure that Social Bite is a challenging, supportive, rewarding and fun place for all our employees to work and develop in. 

What you’ll be doing:

With a focus on HR, this will involve:

·         Managing the employee life cycle, including recruitment, induction, performance, development and departures.

·         Developing people systems, process and practices that support our culture and strategic objectives.

·         Implementing and managing a new HR system incorporating all employee records, data and attendance management.

·         Working closely with the Director of Finance & Risk and the Managing Director to develop and implement a People Strategy & Plan.

·         Supporting people managers and providing guidance.

·         Establishing reporting measures and identifying trends.

·         Compliance with legislation and adherence to best practice.

·         Impact: your work will empower people experiencing homelessness to transform their own lives through our key pillars of providing homes, jobs, food and support.

·         Culture: you’ll be part of a supportive and dynamic team in an entrepreneurial organisation that values your unique take on how to achieve our goals.

·         Growth: opportunities to work on exciting projects and learn, grow, and shine in a role that’s as rewarding as it is challenging.

·         Perks: competitive salary, flexible working hours, and benefits including:

o   32 days paid annual leave

o   Staff discount at Social Bite Coffee Shops

o   Reward Hub (discounted gym, restaurants, shop partnerships)

o   Enhanced sick pay

o   Cycle to work scheme

o   Employee Assistance Programme

o   Reflective Practice

o   Values Superstars rewards

Application process: please send a CV and cover message. Your cover message should give us a sense of who you and help us understand why you’re a good fit for this role. It could be a letter (up to 500 words), a video or voice note (up to four minutes), or something else.  Ultimately it’s what you are comfortable with.   Note – applications without a supporting message will not be considered.

Recruitment process:
We believe the right recruitment process is one that allows both of us to learn about the other, to ensure that we both make the right decision.  The right candidate will fit well within Social Bite and understand and believe in our values and what we are trying to achieve. 

There will be a two-stage process (with possibly an initial telephone/teams call) allowing you to meet with Peter Kerr, the Finance & Risk Director, along with colleagues. 

As this role is one that replaces an existing, we are keen to recruit as soon as possible, so all applications will be considered as they are received and interviews scheduled on a rolling basis, therefore early applications for this role are encouraged.
