North Yorkshire Education Services (NYES) HR is one of a number of traded services for Education settings, across the North of England.

The world of Education is rapidly changing presenting challenge and opportunity in equal measure.

NYES HR are proud to be an award winning, responsive and solution focussed service providing a high standard of professional HR Advisory support to over 450 educational settings.  Our customers include maintained schools, Multi Academy Trusts and Independent Schools predominantly across the North of England, with our income being 100% reliant on our customers choosing to buy into the provision.  As such, our practitioners need to have excellent commercial awareness; customer service and strong relationships are key to our success.

If you think you can help us to continue to make our mark at this exciting time and bring something special to our fantastic team then we would love to hear from you. In return, you can expect to be welcomed by a friendly, supportive, collaborative and dedicated team as well as fantastic clients.

The role is highly autonomous and we are searching for someone who can further build on our commercial success and be a real asset to the wider team.  Sector knowledge would be advantageous although not required.  What is of utmost importance is a strong moral purpose in making a difference to the education of the children and young people our clients serve.

What you will be doing:

This role is varied, challenging and rewarding; you will act as the strategic HR partner for a portfolio of our largest Multi Academy Trusts to support them to deliver their HR priorities, often seen as an extended member of their senior management teams.  You job is to partner with them to understand their individual context, culture, terms and conditions and policies in order to ensure that they receive a tailored service relative to their organisational needs. 

You need to be able to operate at a strategic level advising CEOs, Trustees, Chief Operating Officers and other senior professionals as well as manage a complex employee relations caseload and day to day supervision of HR Advisers.  

Your casework will include the most complex operational cases including complex safeguarding allegations, advising appeal panels and, at times, you will provide an expert commissioned investigatory service.

Ideally, we are looking for someone who can play a lead role in policy, projects and client communication co-ordination for the team alongside a strategic and operational portfolio providing an excellent opportunity to expand your experience and work flexibly.  However, the proportionate split is something we would be open to discussion on with the successful applicant.

For an informal discussion about the role please contact Principal HR Advisors Mairi Reed mairi.reed@northyorks.gov.uk  or Julie Boucher Julie.Boucher1@northyorks.gov.uk
