New Today

Location: Shropshire (3 days per week)
Reporting to: Group Chief People Officer
The Opportunity:
This is a rare opportunity to step into a pivotal HR leadership role within a complex, fast-paced, global organisation. We are looking for a commercially astute HR Director who operates as a true business leader, capable of influencing at the highest levels and shaping people strategy in line with ambitious growth objectives.
You will sit at the intersection of people and business performance, partnering with board-level stakeholders and senior leaders to drive strategic outcomes. This role is not about maintaining the status quo. It is about building, evolving and delivering a forward-thinking people agenda that enables scale, transformation and sustained success.
The Role:
As HR Director, you will lead a high-performing team of approximately 11 HR specialists, ensuring the delivery of a best-in-class people function across a large, enterprise-scale environment.
You will:
- Act as a strategic advisor to the board and executive leadership team
- Partner with senior and high-profile external stakeholders to influence business direction
- Translate commercial objectives into impactful people strategies
- Lead organisational design, workforce planning and transformation initiatives

- Build scalable, future-ready HR frameworks suited to a complex, matrixed organisation
- Lead, mentor and elevate a team of HR professionals to deliver at pace and quality
- Solve complex business challenges through a pragmatic, solutions-focused HR lens
About You:
You are a credible, high-impact HR leader with experience operating in large, global, enterprise environments such as professional services, consulting, technology or similarly complex organisations.
You might have operated as a Strategic HR Business Partner or Head of HR ready for that move, but will need to demonstrate that you are an ambitious big hitter.
You bring:
- A proven track record of influencing senior stakeholders, including board and executive level as a strategic HR partner
- Deep commercial acumen and the ability to align people strategy with business performance
- Experience within large-scale, matrixed, multi-geography organisations
- A strategic mindset with the ability to execute in fast-moving environments
- Strong leadership capability with experience managing and developing sizeable HR teams
- A solutions-oriented approach, able to navigate ambiguity and deliver outcomes
- Confidence engaging with high-profile external stakeholders and partners
Why This Role:
This is a career-defining opportunity for an ambitious HR leader who wants to operate at the highest level, shape strategy and make a tangible impact on business performance.
You will be empowered to think like a business leader, challenge constructively and drive meaningful change across a complex, evolving organisation
