Your new role I am excited to be partnering with Norwich University of the Arts in central Norwich in their search for an HR Partner.

They are one of the Great British art schools: a specialist creative arts university with an award-winning campus that draws on 175 years of history. The University is a vibrant community that forms the beating heart of the city and the region's arts and cultural worlds. They celebrate diversity and believe it to be at the core of any creative endeavour. You'll be joining a forward-thinking People Team with ambitious plans! You'll support the implementation of their People Strategy and be the HR lead for policy development as well as the delivery of the University's Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I) agenda. There will also be the opportunity to be involved in interesting change projects, organisational development and performance management.

The HR Partner will explore new legislative developments, trends, and emerging industry best practice and build strong relationships with university colleagues to champion the University's position as a leading creative arts education employer in the UK.

What you'll need to succeed You'll be a true HR generalist with excellent employment law knowledge gained in complex organisations. Proven policy development experience is essential, including shaping policies from scratch. As well as experience of leading evidence-based ED&I projects.

Joining a growing People Team, being a self-starter, solutions-driven, and curious is critical. You'll be confident in your own decisions and enjoy being part of a small team with big ideas.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills are a must, as is the ability to manipulate and analyse data, and to maintain a high level of accuracy and attention to detail. Candidates will also ideally be degree-educated and professionally qualified with a relevant Level 7 post-graduate qualification or evidence of competency at a similar level.

What you'll get in return Norwich University of the Arts supports continuous learning. They offer 26 days' leave + bank holidays (plus concessionary days) and a very generous Local Government Pension Scheme, where the University currently contributes 24.4%. Hours are 37 per week and the role can be a 4 or 5-day week contract, and they operate a hybrid policy with 3 days onsite per week.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a newly formed, forward-looking People Team with scope for you to grow your skills and professional expertise.
