Charity People are delighted to be partnering The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), an independent charity dedicated to breaking the link between family income and educational achievement.

We do this by summarising the best available evidence in plain language for busy, time-poor teachers and senior leaders, generating new evidence of what works and what doesn't work to improve teaching and learning, and supporting teachers and senior leaders across the country to use this evidence to achieve the maximum possible benefit for children and young people.

As the HR Manager, you'll take the lead in managing and driving operational HR, helping to support our Senior Managers, recruitment and administrative duties.

This position requires experience in managing HR projects and strong working knowledge of UK employment legislation and HR best practices.

About You

To join us as an HR Manager, you will need to have already worked as an HR Generalist but are now ready to join an organisation that gives you the chance to lead on HR initiatives.
