HR Resourcing Lead

Application Deadline: 31 December 2025

Department: Site Support Roles

Employment Type: Permanent - Part Time

Location: Priory Hospital Dewsbury

Compensation: £28,041 / year

Description

Priory Hospital Dewsbury is looking to recruit a HR Resourcing Lead to join the team. This is a part time role of 30 hours per week.

Based in the residential area of Earlsheaton, West Yorkshire, Priory Hospital Dewsbury provides level 2 rehabilitation services divided into two wards. Care is for male patients who have mental health disorders and increasing physical health needs. We also offer neuropsychiatry support, support for older people and dementia, community‑focused rehabilitation, and support for severe and enduring mental health.

Although Dewsbury is not a 24/7 acute hospital, we are well‑placed to provide support to acute patients within our dementia services, for those who require an alternative setting to an acute psychiatric ward. Admissions can also take place due to other placement breakdowns (either from their home or other care environment), or step‑downs from prison settings.

What you'll be doing

You’ll be part of a dedicated and compassionate team, all working together to ensure the smooth running of the hospital and to support the well‑being of our patients. While your role doesn’t involve providing direct care, your contribution is vital in helping to maintain a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for everyone. Whether you're assisting with day‑to‑day operations, keeping things organised, or ensuring our spaces are well looked after, your support plays an important part in creating a positive experience for those who live and work here.

The main purpose of the HR & Resourcing Lead is to provide advice, guidance and support to the site’s Senior Management Team on the interpretation and implementation of Priory’s HR policies and procedures ensuring consistent employment practice at site. The role holder will manage the HR workflow ensuring all HR administration processes are delivered accurately and in a timely manner.

The HR & Resourcing Lead will manage a small team of HR & Resourcing Administrators, working closely with the team in leading the Hospital’s Recruitment and Onboarding activities. The role holder will liaise closely with the Hospital’s Senior Management Team, Departmental Managers and the central Talent Acquisition and Onboarding Teams, ensuring the appropriate screening of candidates for interview, as well as supporting candidates through the Onboarding process in accordance with the company’s Safer Recruitment policies and procedures. You will be an active member of the Hospitals Senior Management Team and your ability to build positive working relationships is paramount.

The role holder will ensure KPI’s are met with regards to compliance and mandatory training, including the renewal and monitoring of DBS and professional accreditation renewals and meeting mandatory compliance training targets.

The role holder will lead on the completion of the annual Employee Engagement Survey and working alongside the Hospital Director, will ensure regular YSF (Your Say Forum) staff meetings are held and actions/action plans are reviewed and taken forward.

The HR & Resourcing Lead will be responsible for ensuring that the company’s absence management policies and procedures are adhered to and will support managers in the management of short and long term absences, providing advice and guidance where necessary.

The role holder will be responsible for ensuring all employee documentation is recorded, maintained and stored appropriately. The role holder will support with the administration and coordination of investigations, grievances and other HR processes, providing consistent advice and guidance to managers, as well as obtaining additional support and guidance as required from the company’s Regional HR Team.

You can find additional information in the attached job description.

What you'll bring to the role

Our work is rewarding but can be challenging, so resilience is key. No two days are the same! Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.

A minimum of Level 5 CIPD is required together with a practical understanding of current employment legislation and previous experience coordinating HR activities in a corporate environment, ideally within the Healthcare sector but not essential.

The role holder will be motivated to work to the highest standards building effective relationships at all levels with multiple stakeholders. It’s a busy hands‑on role where you will be expected to manage multiple priorities so good organisational skills and time‑management skills are key.
