People Advisor

Location

Edinburgh | United Kingdom

Job description

This is a  fixed term contract ending 30 June 2024

This role is home-based covering Scotland.

Ideally you should live in Scotland given the requirement to travel, but it is not an essential 

For almost 75 years we have worked directly with disabled people to give freedom to live their lives the way they choose. Today over 4,000 staff provide social care to help over 2,000 disabled people across the UK.

Offering high-quality care and community support, we also lead campaigns to influence the government to implement legislation. Working with a range of partners to deliver support and life-changing programmes, we help people with a disability to access quality learning and work, and to live as they choose.

About the role

We are looking to appoint an experienced People Advisor for Scotland. You must have proven experience of delivering generalist HR support to Operational Managers and implementing change programmes. The successful candidate will be required to travel regularly across the region which may also include the need to stay away from home on some of those occasions. 

You will have good knowledge of current employment legislation and understanding of its application, including the management of change, consultations, redundancies and general employee relations issues. It is essential that you are an excellent communicator and able to prioritise your workload in a pressurised environment.

We offer a wide range of employee rewards to include:

• Wagestream, access earned pay before pay day (click here for more details).
• Free Blue Light Card.
• Free PVG membership.
• Contributory company pension scheme with competitive life cover benefit.
• Access to a Cash Health Plan at very favourable rates.
• Unlimited payments through our Refer a Friend bonus scheme.
• Employee Assistance Programme and so much more!

Leonard Cheshire welcomes applications from all sections of the community. We actively encourage applications from people with a disability, supporting where possible, your requirements for reasonable adjustments.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults at risk. A satisfactory disclosure check (PVG membership in Scotland) is required for this post. References will be obtained for all roles.

Shortlisting for this role may take place as applications are received. We therefore reserve the right to close this vacancy once suitable candidates have been appointed.
