Head of HR

Location: The Abbey Senior School

The Abbey is a remarkable all-girls community of learning and brilliant experiences. It is a place of curiosity, adventurous spirits, and the excitement of discovery. We focus on individual care and attention in a warmly supportive atmosphere, full of fun and laughter. Our students have the assurance to take risks, explore interests and passions, and engage generously with the world and with each other.

Our results are outstanding, but what matters to us is how students achieve them. Our goal is to equip girls to achieve academic excellence with confidence, purpose and joy. This means providing exceptional opportunities across the widest spectrum of learning and activities. We offer more student led learning and choice in our curriculum than almost any other school, so that students take charge of their own futures and mature into the people they mean to be.

The Abbey School has been a leader in girls' education for over 130 years. For all this time The Abbey has been a strong advocate for educating young women. We continue to encourage our students to achieve outstanding outcomes in whatever field of endeavour they choose.

The Head of Human Resources is responsible for leading the strategic and operational delivery of Human Resources across The Abbey School. The postholder will develop and implement an HR strategy that supports the School's vision, values and strategic priorities, ensuring that The Abbey attracts, develops and retains outstanding staff.

We are looking for a Head of HR to join our wonderful Abbey community in September 2026.
