Our people work differently depending on their jobs and needs. From hybrid working to flexible hours, we have plenty of options that help our people to thrive.

This role is based in the United Kingdom and as such all normal working days must be carried out in the United Kingdom.

Join us as a Human Resources Business Partner

• We’re looking for an established strategic talent leader to provide our business leaders with expert advice, counsel, diagnostic analysis and decision support regarding people plans and strategy

What you'll do

As we continue our evolution of becoming a relationship bank for a digital world, we’ll look to you to create, drive and deliver strategic people initiatives in response to strategic challenges. Using data on key people measures, you’ll identify trends and make recommendations to the business area and leadership team to drive employee engagement levels and respond to strategic challenges, including a significant transformation agenda.
