HR Lead

Are you driven by the belief that every woman deserves the chance to shape her future, no matter her past?

We are an award‑winning national charity, the UK’s only employment charity dedicated solely to supporting women with convictions.

Driven by our vision of a society where no woman is held back by her past, we work to ensure every woman has the support, encouragement and opportunities she needs to reset her life and thrive.

We challenge misconceptions about women with convictions and raise awareness of the issues that often sit behind women’s offending. At the heart of our work is a simple belief: a conviction should never define a woman’s future.

About the role

We’re looking for a new HR Lead to build on our existing policies and processes and take our inclusive, and high-performing culture to the next stage. As HR Lead, you will be integrated across the organisation, working at both strategic and operational levels to develop our people practices.

Your ability to build trusting relationships with a wide range of people will set you apart, as will your passion for the work we do.

What we offer

You’ll be joining a supportive, values‑driven team who care deeply about the women we work with. Alongside a competitive salary, we offer flexible working, a generous holiday allowance, wellbeing days and time off for your birthday.

Flexibility

Our London-based staff operate on a hybrid model, working from our office at London South Bank University (one minute from Elephant and Castle tube station) on Mondays and Tuesdays, with the remainder of the week worked from home. Full-time staff are expected to attend the office on both days, while part-time staff are required to attend on one of these days only. We also have staff based outside London who work fully remotely.

The HR Lead role is a two-day-per-week position. We would like the postholder to work from the London office on either Monday or Tuesday (or both days if preferred), with flexibility over when the remaining hours are worked, provided there is a consistent working pattern each week.

People are at the heart of everything we do at UCCF.

Over the last two years, we've invested significantly in building excellent People practices across UCCF. We've strengthened our policies, improved our processes, created clear foundations for growth, and developed a People function that exists to help our staff thrive as they serve students across Great Britain.

Now we're entering an exciting new chapter.

We're launching a brand new HR system (HiBob), modernising the way we work, refreshing key policies and practices, and creating a more connected employee experience across the organisation. We're looking for a People Advisor who wants to help shape what comes next.

The role

This is a varied and rewarding generalist HR role with responsibility across the employee lifecycle. You'll take a lead on key areas including recruitment, onboarding and internal communications, while also supporting HR operations and projects across the wider organisation.

One day you might be supporting managers with a recruitment campaign, welcoming new starters and coordinating inductions. The next you could be analysing engagement survey results, improving a People process, creating internal communications content, or helping implement new ways of working through HiBob, our new HR system.

You'll thrive in this role if you're curious, people focused and proactive, with a passion for improving experiences, solving problems and making things better. You'll bring strong organisational and communication skills and a desire to develop. Some experience of HR systems, recruitment or people processes would be helpful, but we know great candidates don't always tick every box. If this role excites you, we'd love to hear from you and discuss how we can support your development, including towards a CIPD Level 5 qualification if that's not something you already have.

The role is based at Blue Boar House in central Oxford with hybrid working. Our expectation is that you'd spend approximately 60% of your time working together in person across a month. For many people this typically works out as around three days per week in the office, although conference attendance and occasional travel may mean some weeks look different. Our office is located in the heart of Oxford with views of the dreaming spires and every lunch option you can imagine right on our doorstep.

If that sounds exciting, we'd love to hear from you.

The details

• Salary: £31,601 - 37,545 (depending on experience)
• Hours: Full-time of 37.5 hours per week. We are also open to discussing part time
• Holiday: 30 days holiday per year, plus 8 public holidays
• Location: Hybrid working from our Oxford office
• Interview dates: 6th - 7th August, at our Oxford office
• Start date: 1st September or as soon as possible, open to negotiation for the right candidate

• 30 days annual leave, plus public holidays
• 5 days of service leave
• CIPD membership fee
• Modern and spacious central Oxford office
• Facilities including secure bike storage
