Description

In a newly created role, we're looking for a Head of People to come and join our People team, supporting our people managers right across the business.

This is an incredible opportunity to bring your extensive operational HR experience into a fast-moving, high growth organisation which is passionate about its culture and about creating an incredible employee experience for all of our 200+ people.

If this sounds like it could be the perfect role for you, read on to find out more about our business and the role itself.

Why Saltus?

Our mission is to improve everyone's relationship with their wealth: to make it a positive force for their future and at the same time to prevent it being a source of anxiety.

We want everyone who works at Saltus to be proud to work here, and to find fulfilment and meaning in the work that they do.

We are a successful, privately owned, LLP, with a number of offices in the South of England including London, Whiteley and Farnham.

We are incredibly proud of our culture and work really hard to ensure that Saltus is a great place to work for our people, where they can have fun and grow in their career, with a passion for excellence and customer service.

Saltus is an independently owned financial planning and discretionary investment management house. We are dedicated to providing a high-quality service for private clients, trusts, and smaller institutions.

Saltus Partners was founded in 2004 and has grown organically and through a small number of carefully integrated acquisitions.

Originally the business started out as an investment manager and has now developed the financial planning side of the offering, putting this at the forefront of the client relationship.

Today Saltus manages and advises on over £3 billion of client assets, acquired through a combination of organic business growth and corporate acquisitions.

You will have a minimum of five years' experience in an HR management, business partner, or Head of People role, working within a fast-moving, high growth organisation.

You will be an experienced recruiter with a track record of directly filling vacancies at volume, without the need for external recruiter support other than in the case of specialist positions.

You will have excellent levels of knowledge when it comes to employment law, and will be confident advising line managers in respect of ER issues arise.

You will have experience dealing with complex disciplinary and grievance issues, including managing these to appeal level.

You'll be an outstanding communicator, confident communicating with stakeholders at all levels within a business.

Advocacy for our culture will be of primary importance to you, and you'll be able to demonstrate the contribution you've made to actively driving a positive culture within your previous roles.

Your attention to detail will be first class, and maintained even when working at pace. You'll be confident and have experience in using a variety of HR technology, and the administration of this.

Where will I be working?

We're incredibly flexible about where, when and how you work: we don't want anyone to be prevented from coming to work for Saltus as a result of the working pattern that they're looking for.

Ideally, you'd be able to be based out of our Solent office for two or three days each week, working the remainder of the week from home.

You'll also need to be able to travel to our other office locations, as required by the role. We are
