Job summary:

The People and Training Directorate within Navy Command Headquarters is responsible for attracting, recruiting, training, sustaining and retaining inspired, capable and motivated people in an agile and flexible Whole Force to enable the Royal Navy to succeed on operations by putting our people capability first.

Our modern approach to the future workplace and our singular focus on improving the lived experience presents a unique opportunity to support, enable and empower the people of the Royal Navy to thrive, and unlock their potential as valued and respected individuals who operate to fight and win.

The uniformed civilians of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) are professional qualified seafarers, trained and educated to recognised international maritime standards and deliver worldwide logistic and operational support to Royal Navy military operations.

Fully integrated into front-line warships, the RFA is an essential element of how the Royal Navy operates with freedom around the globe.

The RFA supports a wide spectrum of operations from high-tempo war-fighting to counter-piracy, disaster relief, counter-narcotics, law enforcement and evacuation operations.

This is a Fixed-term Appointment as a Royal Navy People - RFA Casework and Change Team Leader in the MOD- Navy.

Your responsibilities will be as described in this job advert. This post will therefore begin on your appointment and end 12 months after that date.

You should be aware that when your Fixed-term Appointment at MOD comes to an end, arrangements will be made in line with the FTA policy.

If you are a permanent MoD civil servant and are found successful for an advertised Fixed-term Appointment (FTA) you should move into the post under a Temporary Transfer (for up to a maximum of 23 MONTHS).

At the end of the posting you will return to your previous MoD Business area.

If this posting is at a higher grade, your promotion will be temporary, and you will return to your substantive grade at the end of the Temporary Transfer.

If a Temporary Transfer cannot be agreed between all parties then a transfer on an FTA contract is possible, read the FTA and Change of Work Location in the UK policy for further information.

If you are transferring to MoD from another government department (OGD) you should join the MoD on an inward loan.

At the end of the loan you will return to your home (OGD) department. If a loan cannot be agreed between all parties then a transfer on an FTA contract is possible, read the FTA policy for further information

Our team is based within Navy Command Headquarters; the nerve centre of the Royal Navy providing the ships, people, aircraft and equipment to deliver the UK's defence policy.

Civil Servants and Armed Forces personnel work together across a wide range of interesting and challenging jobs in different disciplines.

This position is advertised at 37 hours per week

Job description:

It's important we proactively support, manage and administer the myriad of events, circumstances and occurrences that influence, change and affect the professional and private lives of our international Seafarers.

At the heart of this we need both robust policy and process in place to set and maintain professional standards and personal behaviour, and we need accurate and complete digital documentation/records, stored securely and accessed appropriately by the most appropriate team, worldwide.

This is a busy and complex People role at a time of great change.

This position includes taking responsibility as the core Case Work manager for issues regarding discipline and standards, ensuring that actions, hearings and consequences are conducted and recorded in accordance with policy and decisions are formally enacted within published timescales.

We are seeking to integrate our HR functions within the wider People and Training team and are working with Defence Business Services to design and implement a system of policies and processes to enable the Royal Fleet Auxiliary to benefit from the full catalogue of Civil Service HR interventions (like all other Royal Navy Civil Servants).

You'll lead the exploratory work to create the framework for these integrations and be the main point of contact as services and responsibilities move across teams.

You'll work with the Head of RFA People Ops, the RFA HR Manager and the RFA Capability Manager to ensure timely and pragmatic resolution of
