The University of Bradford is currently during a major phase of transformational change, shaped by a university-wide Cost Reduction Strategy and development of a new Target Operating Model. As part of this work, we’re seeking two experienced People Business Partners (Grade 9) to join our team on a maternity cover basis.
These roles are integral to the successful delivery of complex organisational change. Working within a highly supportive People function and a wider transformation programme team, you will collaborate with project managers, workstream leads, and senior stakeholders to shape and implement people-focused solutions.
Alongside supporting institutional change, you’ll also provide high-quality business partnering to a designated faculty or directorate — advising on workforce planning, organisational design, and people-related risk. Flexibility and a hands-on approach are essential: from coordinating a voluntary redundancy scheme to navigating employee relations issues, no two days will look the same.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in fast-paced, complex environments and wants to make a meaningful impact on the future of our organisation.
