  • A culture woven by connectivity and creativity.

Our client:
Our client is at the forefront of innovation and re-imagining how technology can create more connected futures for their people, customers, and communities. They are seeking an experienced and credible Manager, HR Business Partnering to support their ambitious transformation across enterprise technology and cyber portfolios. 

You will support and challenge leaders, co-create the future of work, and help teams evolve in step with strategic goals.

This role is NOT about scaling start-ups, it's about enabling established, enterprise-level technology teams to modernise their stacks, lift capability, and retain top talent. Similar experience in supporting change within large and established businesses will be successful in this application.

The Manager, HR Business Partnering will work closely with two critical portfolios that are at the heart of major tech and cyber uplift initiatives, re-orgs, and workforce shifts.

The role:

  • Strategic HR Partnering:
    Partner with senior leaders and two Associate Directors to align people strategies with business transformation priorities. Bring insight, rigour, and strong relationships to the table.
  • Organisation & Capability Design:
    Shape future-fit org structures, enabling smarter, leaner operating models. Help leaders future-proof their teams through the right capability mix, especially across legacy tech environments transitioning to modern platforms.
  • Leading Change at Scale:
    Support enterprise-level change, re-orgs, and operating model shifts. Guide leaders through ambiguity, sustain engagement, and help embed change for long-term success.
  • Leadership Coaching & Performance Enablement:
    Coach leaders to lead with confidence, manage performance constructively, and build inclusive, engaged teams that thrive through transformation.
  • Delivering Fit-for-Purpose People Solution:
    Work hand-in-hand with P&C Centres of Excellence to deliver scalable, tailored people solutions that address the evolving needs of the technology and cyber portfolios.
  • Enterprise Influence:
    Represent the P&C function with credibility. Operate at the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) level when needed and champion enterprise-wide people and culture initiatives.

The Successful applicant:

  • Strong Enterprise HR Expertise
    – Deep experience in complex, mature organisational settings — ideally in technology-rich environments (e.g. telco, banking, insurance) where modernisation, not scale-up, is the mission.
  • Change Leadership Credentials
    – Proven track record delivering structural change, workforce transition, and culture realignment at scale.
  • Tech & Cyber Fluency
    – Able to engage confidently with technology and cyber leaders, understand legacy vs. modern tech stack challenges, and speak the language of technical teams.
  • Leadership Capability Building
    – Experienced in enabling and coaching leaders to take accountability, drive performance, and role model culture.
  • Data & Commercial Acumen
    – Brings insight and commercial thinking, using people data and digital tools to inform decisions and measure success.
  • Qualification
    – Degree in HR, Organisational Psychology, Business or related discipline. AHRI certification desirable.

Benefits:

  • Phenom culture
  • First class leadership
  • Hybrid working
  • Parking on-site
  • STI 14%
