• Owning programme and succession-planning conversations, helping ensure teams are set up for sustainable growth
• Being visibly present "on the ground", acting as a trusted, confided-in presence who can read the room on engagement, flight risk and morale.
• Building trust and credibility with a senior, sophisticated stakeholder group who want someone they can genuinely confide in and lean on
• Working closely alongside an established People Operations team on the operational spine (employee relations, onboarding, lifecycle and hiring) while you focus on the strategic and coaching layer Requirements:
