DESCRIPTION
Are you passionate about translating complex business challenges into meaningful, people-centric solutions? Would you thrive in a customer-focused team, driven to be Earth’s Best Employer? Join us as a HR Consultant Apprentice and embark on an exciting journey where you’ll play a pivotal role in transforming the way our dynamic organisation empowers top talent.
As a HR Consultant Apprentice, you’ll immerse yourself in a customer-obsessed HR team, striving to deliver informed advice that enables exceptional experiences for both customers and employees.
A day in the life can involve:
- Partnering with stakeholders to offer expert HR guidance
- Contribute to diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives
- Delivering on HR strategy for the lines of business you support
- Standardising best practice
We are seeking consultative individuals who can analyse complex business challenges and craft innovative, people-focused solutions. You’ll need to excel in stakeholder management to be able to build trusted partnerships with personnel at all levels. In addition, you’ll need to cultivate a growth mindset, cultural awareness, and the ability to navigate ambiguity – all of which are vital qualities for HR professionals to drive transformative change.
Here at Amazon, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Within this apprenticeship you’ll have the opportunity to learn by doing, putting newfound knowledge into practice every day. Our first-class coaching, tailored development opportunities, and challenging, rewarding work will empower you to reach new heights. If you’re a curious learner eager to grow, this is your chance to unlock your full potential and build the future you envision.
You will gain a vast range of useful experiences and skills whilst working towards the HR Consultant Partner Level 5 apprenticeship standard and the CIPD Level 5 certification in People Management. As a working student your focus is to complete your studies in your 20% off the job time by learning and developing your skills, knowledge and behaviours to work towards successful graduation. You will be set goals by your training provider and manager to support your studies.
You will build your skills over a 24-month period, starting in July. These skills will help you develop personally and professionally. Your apprenticeship will be made up of classroom/virtual based training to cover knowledge, on-the-job training at your Amazon base location, online learning as well as mentoring from our experienced team members.
We value different perspectives and experiences, and we're dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive. Our employee-led affinity groups including communities for women in tech, LGBTQ+ employees, and underrepresented minorities, foster a culture on inclusion that empowers us to be proud of our differences. These groups provide community, mentorship, and a platform for your voice to be heard. We’re committed to building a workforce that reflects the customers and communities we serve.
We're continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth's Best Employer. That's why you'll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship, and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.
If you’re a dynamic, empathetic individual who’s eager to influence the employee experience and contribute to our organisation’s success, then apply to embark on a transformative journey that will equip you to thrive as a trusted HR business partner and strategic leader.
