We are a successful independent school looking to recruit an experienced HR professional to work alongside the Senior Leadership Team and take responsibility for human resources.

You’ll enjoy a varied role which will see you overseeing HR strategy, employee engagement, wellbeing, payroll management and more, so you’ll be expected to multi-task and be a hands-on professional who can operate effectively in a developing and changing workplace. This is an excellent opportunity to look after approximately 100+ employees, allowing you to get to know our people, provide a personalised service and create a real impact.

To be successful, you will have:

• Previous experience of line management and mentoring
• Ideally a Level 7 CIPD diploma or be studying towards it
• Strong numeracy and literacy with English and Maths GCSE (grade A–C) or equivalent
• Excellent IT skills, with the ability to use a range of Microsoft Office packages
• Proven tact and diplomacy in dealing with a wide range of people
• The ability to work independently and as part of a team

Previous experience working in a school or another regulated environment would be advantageous but is not essential.

In return, you’ll work in a thriving independent school situated on 13 acres of greenbelt land in Surrey.

We offer an exceptional benefits package, including:

• 25 days’ holiday per year plus bank holidays
• Personal pension scheme
• Fee remission
