The Role

An opportunity to join a global financial services organisation undergoing a significant HR transformation programme across the European markets. This is a strategic yet hands-on role where you'll help shape the future HR operating model, lead the redesign of key people frameworks, and influence senior stakeholders across the business.

You will partner with HR leadership to kick off a people transformation initiative that will create a regional HR hub to service all European markets. You will lead on the review, design, and implementation of critical programmes across HR TOM, job architecture, performance management, promotion, and reward. Once new operating models and ways of working bed in, you will lead the centralised team based in the London office.

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate on the review and enhancement of the HR operating model, ensuring clear roles, responsibilities, and effective ways of working across the European markets.
• Assess existing practices, identify opportunities for standardisation, and recommend improvements aligned to business objectives.
• Analyse workforce and reward data to support decision-making and continuous improvement.
• Lead complex HR projects from diagnosis and design through to approval, implementation, and post-launch review.
• Build business cases, implementation plans, governance structures, and change programmes to support successful delivery.
• Partner with senior stakeholders and regional HR teams to drive alignment and adoption.
• Facilitate workshops, consultations, and stakeholder engagement activities.
• Develop training materials, tools, and guidance to build capability and ensure sustainable implementation.
• Contribute to wider HR transformation, organisational development, and people strategy initiatives.
