More trust. Less crime. High standards – that’s our two-year mission plan. To turn it into reality, we’ve created the People Performance Improvement Team (PPIT), a brand-new unit where you can make a serious impact.

Day to day, you’ll be problem solving and applying the principles of governance, compliance, resolution and escalation to the HR service. You’ll also be a crucial link between HR and various internal and external stakeholders, supporting plan delivery and championing our More Trust, Less Crime, and High Standards mission.
Operating at the hub of the team, you’ll be a point of contact for HR-related matters. And when you’re not dealing with contacts? You’ll be overseeing the delivery of HR initiatives that elevate people performance. You’ll deputise for the Senior HR Business Advisor, an opportunity to hone your leadership skills.
Although you won’t be managing advisor directly, you’ll have a significant effect on their success: we’ll be looking to you to improve the availability and performance of the workforce within your assigned unit.
To join us, you’ll need to be a credible HR leader who has (or is studying for) a CIPD qualification (or equivalent).
