People Services Manager

This private equity–backed organisation is in an exciting build and acquire phase. Not a strip-and-sell operation, but a genuine growth story. They’re looking for a People Services Manager to lead their People Connect function, ensuring HR operations run efficiently, accurately and with a focus on continuous improvement.

The successful candidate will oversee HR service delivery, employee data integrity, process design and reporting. They’ll lead a capable team who support the HR Business Partnering function and the broader business, helping to create a smooth and consistent employee experience across every stage of the people lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and coach the People Connect team to deliver timely, accurate, and customer-focused HR services.
• Oversee HR documentation, data management, and system optimisation to improve accuracy and efficiency.
• Partner with HRBPs and leaders to provide practical, compliant people solutions.
• Drive process improvement and embed best practice across HR operations.
• Deliver insights through data reporting and analysis to support better decision-making.

What They’re Looking For

• Proven experience in HR shared services or people operations, ideally within a complex or multi-site environment.
• Strong leadership capability with a hands-on approach and a continuous improvement mindset.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Confidence working with HR systems (Oracle HCM experience desirable).
• A collaborative, proactive style with strong attention to detail and data integrity.

Why You’ll Love It

• A business genuinely focused on growth and investment, not short-term cost-cutting.
• A supportive, close-knit culture that values connection and accountability.
• A balanced hybrid rhythm, four days in the office to collaborate, one day at home to focus, and a clear expectation that you don’t take work home with you.
• Convenient Rhodes location – easy public transport access plus parking at a concessional rate.

If you’re an HR operations leader who loves improving processes, leading teams and shaping scalable people systems in a growth-focused business, this could be the opportunity for you.
