The HR Manager contributes to the development and leads on the delivery of the Society’s People strategy and is the operational lead for the development of HR frameworks and systems that promote best practice in the recruitment, retention and performance management of staff while managing the associated risks to the organisation. Day to day you will be responsible for providing a collaborative and forward-thinking human resource service to employees and managers across the full range of HR activities ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and organisational policies and procedures.

We are looking for an experienced, proactive and principles-led HR Manager who understands what a positive working culture looks and feels like, with excellent project management skills to deliver an array of HR projects.

More information about our services can be found on our website spacescot.org.

You’ll be line managing a team of experienced, skilled and passionate individuals, enhancing their strengths and supporting them to further develop.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a pivotal leadership role at a defining moment for Space.

You’ll play a central role in shaping our next strategy, influencing what our services look like over the next 3–5 years, and helping translate ambition into meaningful impact.

Alongside this, you’ll support the development of an emerging Community Health Service — building on strong foundations to create something ambitious, responsive and genuinely impactful for local communities.

We live our values – they’re not just words printed on letterheads.

We’re a team and work collaboratively, we support each other to succeed, we value relationships as much as results – egos are best left at the door.

We’re not a finished article, we’re still evolving, still learning and not everything is perfectly optimised (yet).

We find a way – we focus on solutions; challenges are puzzles to be worked out not excuses to give up.

We’re curious and innovative, we challenge the norm and aren’t scared to voice ideas if we think we have a better way.

The sector is demanding and unpredictable at times, priorities shift but if difficult decisions have to be made and we do it with integrity and maintain a people first ethos.

We have a pretty flexible approach to work - we know that everyone’s body clocks, responsibilities and preferred working environments differ. At the same time, we really value staying connected and collaborating with each other. From experience, our work is at its strongest when we come together, so we encourage a healthy balance with a regular presence in the office.

What you’ll bring:

• Experience of leading or overseeing frontline Health & Social Care or community based services at a senior level

• A people first mindset and strong, values led people management experience

• Good judgement – you’ll know when to stick to policy and when to exercise common sense to make balanced decisions

• A positive can do attitude, ready to roll your sleeves up and take on challenges

• Clear communication, being able to naturally connect with people on all levels across the organisation and with stakeholders, and easily build a reputation for being approachable and trustworthy

• Confidence working with budgets and financial information, able to not only understand but translate them to others. Knowledge of charity finances would be an advantage

• Experience of working with a Board of Trustees and reporting to funders

• The ability to plan well, write business cases and manage multiple complex projects at the same time

• Strong digital skills, confidence using Microsoft Office (we use Outlook, SharePoint, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and digital collaboration tools

• A solid understanding of health & safety practices and safeguarding

• Some flexibility with working hours to provide occasional on call telephone support to services that run out with typical office hours.
