People Director - Creative

Handle are working with an iconic media business to bring on a proactive People Director to their team.

Reporting directly into the SLT, you will be responsible for developing and delivering a first-class People strategy that serves the needs and ambitions of the business.

Operating at both a strategic and operational level, this is a role where you can really make your mark and elevate the business and its people offering.
