HR Support

This advanced HR apprenticeship is ideal for learners either working in a medium to large organisation as part of the HR function delivering front line support to managers and employees, or are a HR Manager in a small organisation. Their work is likely to include handling day to day queries and providing HR advice; working on a range of HR processes, ranging from transactional to relatively complex, from recruitment through to retirement; using HR systems to keep records; providing relevant HR information to the business; working with the business on HR changes.

They will typically be taking ownership for providing advice to managers on a wide range of HR issues using company policy and current law, giving guidance that is compliant and where errors could expose the organisation to employment tribunals or legal risk.

The course involves undertaking a real project that is agreed with the business that the apprentice can take ownership of and which adds measurable impact to the business or department.

The training element will typically take up to 13+ months to complete with 20% off the job learning. The exact duration will be dependent on the previous experience of the individual.
