You will manage and deliver a forward thinking, responsive and progressive HR service, whilst ensuring that all academies in the CMAT are compliant with policies and procedures.

In return we can offer you:

  • the opportunity to be part of a highly supportive and ambitious central services team

  • the chance to take a leading role in shaping the ongoing development and delivery of our HR service
