Are you looking for a role where you can help shape something new, make a visible difference and work alongside people who care deeply about their place? We are building a new Combined County Authority for Hampshire and the Solent, bringing together partners across Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton to bring investment to the region and to create opportunities for our people, places, communities and businesses. The Role People and culture are not a back-office function at HSCCA - they are central to how we build and sustain an organisation that works. Our Head of People and OD holds responsibility for leading the design and delivery of the people strategy across the organisation, and this role exists to extend that capacity at a critical point in our development. We are a team of one, still establishing the foundations of how we operate as an employer, and the People Business Partner will make a direct and visible contribution to that work. What you'll be doing In this role, you'll play a crucial part in ensuring our teams have the tools, knowledge, and processes they need to deliver a high-quality service. You will: Lead and deliver people projects - taking ownership of discrete projects drawn from our People Strategy, which may span onboarding, manager capability, ways of working, learning and development, performance management, reward etc. Support organisational change - providing direct, hands-on support on TUPE processes and associated change activity, including consultation requirements, information obligations, data preparation, and the practical coordination of transfer activity. Develop and embed policy and process - contributing to the development, review, and implementation of people policies and procedures, ensuring they are legally compliant, clearly written, and designed to work in practice across the organisation. Manage ER cases - taking ownership of employee relations cases including grievances, disciplinaries, capability, and absence, providing sound and legally grounded advice to managers throughout, and maintaining accurate and thorough records at every stage. Monitor and apply employment law and best practice - proactively tracking developments employment law and HR practice, understanding their potential impact (inc.

CIPD Level 5 qualification or membership, or demonstrable equivalent experience. Sound, practical knowledge of employment law and its application in real situations, including direct experience managing complex employee relations cases - grievance, disciplinary, capability, and absence - from start to conclusion. Experience of TUPE, including involvement in transfer planning, consultation, and the practical coordination of transfer activity. You do not need to have led a process independently, but you must have been closely enough involved to understand the requirements and advise with real confidence. The ability to take ownership of and deliver discrete pieces of project work - managing your own priorities, keeping things moving, and communicating effectively about progress and outcomes. A genuine commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, and the ability to apply an EDI lens consistently as a natural part of how you work. Why join the HSCCA? We are building the HSCCA on the basis that how we work is as important as what we deliver. We want people who bring enthusiasm, drive, and authenticity - who are proactive, open to challenge, and motivated by progress rather than process. We value collaborative leadership: the ability to bring people together across organisational boundaries, respect the expertise of others, and create shared direction without needing to own everything. This is a complex, fast-moving environment. What the HSCCA will offer in return? As we take on new responsibilities devolved from Government, you will have a genuine opportunity to contribute to building a public service organisation that does things differently. Our reward package includes: A flexible working environment, with hybrid working arrangements as standard (minimum 2 days per week in our office) A competitive salary and benefits package Investment in your professional development and leadership growth The chance to work alongside a leadership team that is committed to building an organisation where people thrive Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme The HSCCA is committed to creating a diverse, inclusive and accessible workplace where everyone feels valued and able to thrive. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and lived experiences, particularly those from groups that are currently underrepresented in our workforce. This includes people from ethnic minority communities, disabled people, neurodivergent people, LGBTQ+ people, parents and carers, and individuals from lower socio-economic backgrounds. We are committed to removing barriers to employment and encourage candidates to let us know about any reasonable adjustments they may need at any stage of the recruitment process. Further information As a Disability Confident Committed employer, we run a guaranteed interview scheme for disabled applicants. If you meet the essential criteria listed in the job description for this position and would like to be considered under this scheme, please state this in your application. We are committed to fair and inclusive recruitment. As part of this, we use anonymous shortlisting to ensure candidates are assessed solely on their skills, experience, and suitability for the role.
