Job description

At Innovative Trials, we believe our greatest asset is our people. We are currently going through an exciting period of growth and are looking for a passionate People & Culture Lead to help us scale while maintaining the warm, inclusive, and responsible culture we pride ourselves on. We operate with strong values at our core, ensuring that as we grow, we remain a psychologically safe environment where diverse perspectives are genuinely heard, respected, and valued. In this role, you will act as a trusted, strategic advisor to our Board of Directors and senior management team. Your mission is to shape a best-in-class people strategy, ensuring we have the right culture, capability, and workforce to achieve our ambitious goals and become a true destination for top talent.

What You Will Achieve

  • Strategic Board Advisory: Partner directly with the Board and operational leaders, utilising HRIS data and analytics to provide actionable insights for workforce planning and organisational design.
  • Empowering Leadership: Act as a proactive capability builder, coaching and upskilling our line managers so they have the confidence to handle performance, team dynamics, and early-stage resolutions with care and empathy.
  • Cultivating Our Team: Inspire and lead our established People Team through high-impact coaching, fostering a service-led culture that delivers exceptional, human-centric support across the business.
  • Modernising HR: Champion the thoughtful integration of HR technology, AI, and automation to streamline our daily operations, freeing up time to focus on our people.
  • Nurturing Culture & Wellbeing: Guide complex employee relations with fairness and compliance, while actively driving initiatives around engagement, inclusion, wellbeing, and safety.

Who We Are Looking For

  • A certified HR professional (minimum CIPD Level 5 Qualified, though CIPD Level 7 is highly preferred).
  • A leader with proven experience guiding a people function or high-volume recruitment during a significant organisational growth phase.
  • A highly adaptable team player who can comfortably flex their focus between Learning & Development, talent acquisition, and strategic HR partnering based on the team's needs.
  • Someone with a strong background in complex case management and Employment Law, using this expertise not just to resolve issues, but to identify root causes and implement preventative training.

Job benefits

We know that to take care of our business, we must first take care of you. We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your life inside and outside of work:

  • Your Time & Flexibility: Flexible working arrangements, 24 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays, and regular company events to celebrate our collective success.
  • Financial & Future Security: A competitive salary, discretionary bonus, People’s Pension, a recruitment referral programme, and long service rewards.
  • Health & Wellbeing: Comprehensive healthcare, life assurance, flu jabs, and a dedicated Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to support your overall wellbeing.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
