Schools don't always have the luxury of waiting several weeks for HR support.
Across Southwark, we regularly receive requests from schools looking for experienced HR Managers who can start immediately — whether they need sickness cover, additional support during a busy period or temporary cover while recruiting permanently.

Depending on the school's requirements, you could be responsible for:
Managing the day-to-day HR function
Providing advice on employee relations matters
Managing recruitment and safer recruitment processes
Overseeing DBS and compliance checks
Maintaining the Single Central Record
Supporting absence, probation and performance processes
Managing HR policies and procedures
Supporting payroll and employee records
Advising senior leaders on HR matters
Managing or supporting an HR administration team
What You’ll Need
This role requires someone who can hit the ground running, so previous HR management experience within a school is essential.
You must also have:
A clear DBS
A DBS on the Update Service, or one issued within the last 6 months
Previous school-based HR experience
Strong knowledge of school HR procedures and safer recruitment
Excellent communication and organisational skills
The flexibility to take on full-time or part-time temporary assignments
Flexible Work Available
Assignments can vary from short-term sickness cover to longer temporary placements, depending on what our schools need.
If you're an experienced School HR Manager looking for flexibility and are available immediately, we'd like to hear from you.
If you are shortlisted, you will be contacted within 72 hours.
