The posting

Head of HR, South Pennine Academies

Integrity | Ambition | Inclusion

Head of HR, Elland £61,471 - £70,047 plus excellent pension and benefits (£61,471 - £70,047 FTE + excellent pension & benefits. (Consideration will be given to candidates wishing to work Term time only plus 10 days)

South Pennine Academies is a cross-phase Trust of 10 primary and secondary schools, alongside a school-based Initial Teacher Training provider, Huddersfield Horizon SCITT.

The Trust’s vision is clear: to achieve an excellent education for everyone. This is brought to life through the values of Integrity, Ambition and Inclusion. Success is about more than academic outcomes; it is also about belonging, aspiration and opportunity for all.

HR at South Pennine Academies is about the people who teach, care for and support students across the communities the Trust serves. It is about making sure those people are recruited well, led well and want to stay.

The Opportunity

South Pennine Academies is appointing a Head of HR to lead the Trust’s HR team, reporting to the Operations Director. This is a new post, created following a change to the Trust’s central leadership structure.

This is a role for an HR leader who wants to see the effect of their work in schools: in the quality of the people schools appoint and in whether those people choose to build their careers with the Trust.

The Trust is looking for someone who can give Headteachers and school leaders clear, practical advice they can act on, and who understands that HR decisions in schools eventually reach the classroom.

Safer recruitment, compliance and consistent practice are fundamental. The opportunity is to build on sound foundations and develop an HR service that schools find responsive, well organised and easy to work with.

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.
