Move into HR Business Partnering

Hi everyone

I am currently working as a HR Advisor in a generalist role but the company I work for are looking to create a Business Partnering model in our team and I would like to put myself in the best position when/if this role comes up.

I currently have my CIPD Level 5 and HR Consultant/Partner Apprenticeship.

My current role focusses on:

  • Take responsibility for advising managers on a wide range of HR issues.
  • Managing a large and varied HR case load working with different managers across all services.
  • Provide support to investigating officers in a wide range of investigations including disciplinaries, grievances and SOSRs
  • Dealing with matters of disagreement / conflict and escalating to senior colleagues when necessary.
  • Building effective working relationships with key stakeholders.
  • Daily application of a range of complex policies, procedures, guidelines and legislation.
  • Dealing with queries proactively with and responding to issues which may be sensitive or contentious in nature.
  • Maintaining employment law knowledge by attending workshops
  • Providing advice to the HR and Payroll Administration team to resolve pay related issues.
  • Providing feedback as and when policies are reviewed and responsible for implementation once finalised.

Does anyone have any advice or guidance about qualifications, books, webinars etc I can look at?

Many thanks in advance.

Kind regards

Rebecca

  • I'd suggest you'd be best placed if you learned as much about running the business as possible.

    Whose the main competitors? Whats the return on expenditure, what stops it growing, where do the customers come from and so on. Perhaps asking if you can sit in on the board meetings/SMT etc.,
