We are seeking a detail-focused HR Data and Governance Coordinator to join our People Services team. This role is key to ensuring the accuracy, quality, and timeliness of HR data and reports that inform decision-making across the organisation. You will be responsible for analysing, validating, and presenting data, supporting statutory returns, and producing clear, insightful reports for senior leaders and stakeholders.



Working closely with the HR Quality & Governance Lead, you will also play a vital role in policy development and governance, ensuring HR policies and processes are well-documented, compliant, and aligned with organisational standards.

As a HR Data and Governance Coordinator, you will be responsible for extracting, analysing and validating HR data from a range of systems to provide accurate and timely reports. This includes preparing routine and ad hoc performance reports, statutory returns, and responding to requests such as Freedom of Information submissions.

You will support the HR Quality & Governance Lead in streamlining reporting processes and enhancing the visualisation of data, using tools such as Power BI to make complex information accessible to a wide range of audiences. Alongside this, you will provide guidance to colleagues on interpreting data, ensuring consistency, and promoting best practice in data management across the People Services directorate.



In addition to reporting, you will play an important role in the governance of HR policies and processes.
