Role

At Carr Gomm, we have an exciting opportunity for a HR Officer to join our team!

This is an ideal opportunity to gain valuable HR generalist experience within a fast-paced, dynamic team in a Health and Social Care charity.

You will demonstrate and promote the Carr Gomm’s values in your day-to-day work, with a person-centred approach. These values are Choice, Control, Openness & Honesty, Interdependence, Respect, Kindness and Compassion.

We expect that you will have a relevant HR qualification, currently undertaking one or will have some relevant HR experience. You will also be able to manage a diverse and busy workload and work to tight deadlines.

Additional Benefits

  • 35 days holiday per year, increasing to 40 days with length of service
  • Enhanced maternity, paternity, adoption, and sick leave
  • A Defined Contribution pension scheme, with incremental employer contributions
