Support For Ordinary Living (SOL) is a not-for-profit organisation. We work for people with a variety of different support needs and disabilities to choose and create a life for themselves within their own homes and communities.
We are passionate about making a difference to the lives of the people we support. We are looking for an HR Business Partner who shares our values to join our senior management team.
Responsible for the day-to-day management of the People Team and with SOL’s People Strategy at the heart of everything they do, the HR Business Partner will be driven to create an exceptional employee experience in SOL. The post holder will be motivated to bring out the best in our people so that they deliver the absolute best care and support to the people we work for.
They will work to move away from traditional reactive HR employee relations interactions and start to develop a culture of ‘quality conversations’ that build trusted relationships with our people and all stakeholders.
Overseeing SOL's workforce planning initiatives, they will ensure that we recruit good people who share our values and in such numbers as are appropriate for the health, wellbeing and safety of the people we support and our staff, in line with the Health and Care Staffing Act.
The HR Business Partner will play a critical role in the development and growth of our organisation.

* Compliance: Ensure compliance with all relevant employment laws and regulations, including health and safety standards.
* Culture Development: Foster a culture of leadership, resilience, and personal responsibility within the organisation. Encourage and support initiatives that promote our organisational values, ensuring they are integrated into all aspects of the employee experience.
* Business Growth: Collaborate with the Leadership Team to support business growth and development. This includes workforce planning, identifying talent gaps, and developing strategies to attract and retain the necessary talent to drive organisational growth.
* Employee Engagement: Keep a pulse on employee engagement by regularly assessing employee satisfaction and morale. Implement initiatives to enhance engagement, address concerns, and create a positive and inclusive work environment.
Preferred Qualifications:
* Degree in Human Resources or HR certification minimum CIPD Level 3.
* Proven experience of HR Management is essential.

Our Values:
Do the right thing: Play an important role in creating a safe environment for the people we support and colleagues. Speak the truth. Treat people with dignity and respect.
