Thank you for your interest in the role of HR Manager at the Learning Community Trust.

Our HR department is at a significant point of development. We are seeking a confident, values-led and experienced HR professional to lead the operational delivery of our HR service, including the implementation of new HR systems and the strengthening of data integrity, ensuring schools and central teams receive timely, high-quality and risk-aware support.
As HR Manager, you will work closely with the Head of HR and play a key role in the implementation and embedding of new HR systems across the Trust. You will help strengthen workforce data, improve reporting, support process consistency and ensure our people practices are efficient, compliant and aligned with our mission: to provide an inclusive, compelling and transformative education that empowers young people in a rapidly changing world.
This is a visible and hands-on systems-focused role, supporting Headteachers School Business Managers, leaders and line managers to use HR processes and workforce information confidently and consistently.
