The Directorate

The Team

You'll become a valued member of our small, close-knit team made up of a Head of People, Business Partner and People Assistant, working collaboratively to drive both the People Team and broader business strategies. We work closely with managers, providing coaching and general support to equip them with the necessary tools for effective employee management. This helps ensure that our employees enjoy a positive and fulfilling work experience.

How we are currently working

RPS supports and works in a hybrid way, which means you will be able to work from home, however, there will be an expectation for collaborative face-to-face working – on average and typically this may be something between 4-8 working days per month at our London Office. However, this may be more depending on the team or business need.
