Overview

HM Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS) is on a journey of unprecedented change. The Reform Programme is a once in a generation opportunity to transform the entire HMCTS, enhancing the provision of a world-class justice system, in a manner that provides an improved user experience at reduced cost to the taxpayer. This will contribute to consolidating the UK’s position at the fore-front of an increasingly competitive international legal market as well as ensuring access to justice for all. Approximately £1 billion is being invested in Reform; which is due to complete in 2023/24. 

The HMCTS HR function will have a pivotal role in supporting leaders and their teams through transformation by developing and deploying the right people strategies. The role of HRBP requires you to provide clear direction and focus, visibly championing changes within HMCTS and the Reform agenda.  

Strong leadership is critical and all senior managers in the organisation are required to operate in a culture of openness and honesty, demonstrating a commitment to change through involvement and empowerment, and by delivering results. 

We’re looking for exceptional candidates to join our team in the role of Senior HR Business Partner, as part of the HMCTS Reform Programme. This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the largest change programmes in government, which is internationally recognised as the most ambitious reform of a Justice System ever undertaken.

Main purpose of the role:    

Senior HR Business Partners are responsible for planning and facilitating the delivery of the People and Organisation Strategy, in support of the HMCTS Business Plan and goals. As the business face of HMCTS you will need to work closely with the wider HMCTS HR team in Organisational Capability and the HR Directors office and wider MoJ and Civil Service HR to tailor appropriate interventions and insight to deliver a whole HR service. 

As a key member of the Senior Management Team for your area(s) of responsibility, you will provide the bridge between the business and HR and will work collaboratively with senior stakeholders and their teams to determine all people requirements. 

Providing expert strategic HR advice to Directors and Senior Management Teams, as a Senior HRBP you will coach senior leaders, and challenge where necessary, to enable highly effective change leadership and to create a compelling people proposition thereby improving individual, team and organisational performance and capability.

Some Senior HR Business Partners line manage and lead HR Business Partners.
