Job Title: Assistant HR Officer Starting Salary: £27,694 opportunity to progress to £31,022 pa (pro-rata for part-time)&nbsp; Hours: 34.0 Location: Stevenage/Hybrid&nbsp; Contract Type: Permanent Directorate: Resources<h4>About the team</h4>Whilst the primary focus of the Team is the administration of the Teachers’ Pensions scheme, the Team also acts as the initial point of contact for technical queries on the other pension schemes available to HCC staff.The world of pensions is a constantly changing one and is increasingly technical in nature. Members of the Team need to be familiar with the increasingly complex frameworks pensions operate within. &nbsp;Employees are understandably sensitive and often anxious around the administration of their pension schemes. The Team plays a valuable role in re-assuring those employees of the processes involved and the choices available to them.<h4>About the role</h4>Whilst some knowledge of Teachers’ Pensions Regulations would be advantageous, attention to detail and a thorough approach to managing casework are key requirements of the post.Pension schemes operate within a statutory framework and the postholder will need to be able to demonstrate the ability to follow procedural documents.The postholder will need to work to investigate and resolve instances where members, employers or the Scheme administrators have raised concerns and communicate the steps taken to reach resolution.The ability to clearly set out options available to members whilst recognising the difference between ‘guidance’ and ‘advice’ is an important aspect of the role.This is a hybrid working role with the postholder mainly working from home with a requirement that the member of staff be available to attend meetings etc one day a week in the Stevenage office.&nbsp;<h4>About you</h4>Essential:<ul><li>Attention to detail.</li><li>Ability to follow procedures accurately.</li><li>Good numeracy skills</li><li>Ability to explain potentially complex issues to members along with the implications of the decisions they make.</li></ul>Desirable:<ul><li>An understanding of occupational pension schemes</li><li>Familiarity with Teachers’ Pay &amp; Conditions</li><li>Familiarity with Office applications including Word, Excel and Teams.</li></ul>Pensions can be an intimidating subject for members unfamiliar with their options and entitlements under the Scheme.Colleagues who have been provided with re-assurance and clarification on their pension entitlements will often express their gratitude for the help and support provided as they approach retirement or when starting in a new role and needing to understand the implications of complex and important decisions making the role a rewarding one.This job role is within the Business Support Services, level BUS7 job profile.

<h2>Domestic Abuse Court Advocacy Accreditation Lead (Scotland) - 12-month Maternity Cover</h2> Reports to &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Head of Scotland ​ Hours &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;37.5 hours per week Salary &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; £42,413.87 per annum Contract &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 12 months fixed-term (maternity cover) Location &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Scotland (remote) with regular travel within Scotland and once or twice a year to the central office in Bristol Benefits &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A generous package including 25 days holiday per year plus public holidays, employee pension scheme with 4% employer contribution, Cycle2Work scheme, 365 days a year Employee Assistance Programme. ​<h1>Who are we?</h1>We are SafeLives, the UK-wide charity dedicated to ending domestic abuse, for everyone and for good. Last year alone, 14,000 professionals received our training. Over 80,000 adults at risk of serious harm or murder and more than 100,000 children received support through dedicated multi-agency support designed by us and delivered with partners. In the last six years, over 4,000 perpetrators have been challenged and supported to change by interventions we created with partners, and that’s just the start. Together we can end domestic abuse. Forever. For everyone.<h1>​</h1><h1>Background to the Project</h1>In 2022, SafeLives and ASSIST began the Domestic Abuse Court Advocacy project, funded by Scottish Government’s Victim Centred Approach Fund (VCAF), to ultimately ensure more victims of domestic abuse have a safe and informed journey through the criminal justice system. Specifically, the project aims to build consistency in how domestic abuse court advocacy provision is delivered across Scotland via creation of Domestic Abuse Court Advocacy (DACA) Standards, establishment of an accreditation framework for DACA services, and delivery of a new Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA)-accredited training block on specialist domestic abuse court advocacy. ​Now in its fourth year, the project team have already created Domestic Abuse Court Advocacy standards for Scotland and developed accreditation and mentoring frameworks for domestic abuse services across Scotland that provide court advocacy to their clients. A new block of the well-established Independent Domestic Abuse Advocacy (Idaa) training block, in partnership with ASSIST and Scottish Women’s Aid, has also been developed. More detail on the progress of the project to date can be explored on the website&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dacascotland.org.uk/" target="_blank">Home | DACA Scotland</a> <h1>Where you come in</h1>Working collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders and in close partnership with a subject matter expert from ASSIST who has been involved in the DACA project from the beginning, you will begin the accreditation process in earnest. Using the new framework with frontline services you will take the project into its next stage. ​You will engage and consult with domestic abuse court advocacy services, other domestic abuse services, criminal and civil justice partners, Scottish Government and victims and survivors (including the SafeLives Authentic Voice panel). ​This work will also entail working closely with Idaa delivery partners at ASSIST and Scottish Women’s Aid, the Scottish Qualifications Authority, to ensure ongoing delivery of the additional Idaa training relevant to DACA, as well as a wide range of colleagues within SafeLives and across Scotland, keeping the work of DACA high on the national agenda.​ The work is also linked to a broader set of work across the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) sector in Scotland that seeks to galvanise whole system improvement for those experiencing domestic abuse. The role is also closely aligned to SafeLives’ Finding What Works, Helping it Happen Strategy. <h1>Key duties</h1>You will support with emerging activity relevant to the programme and/or our strategic intent and undertake any other duties as may be reasonably required. You will work near-daily with the subject matter expert within ASSIST. You will also be an active member of the Scottish team, which includes Multi-Agency, Training and Engagement Leads. You will engage with others across the whole organisation and UK-wide (including Associates, AV panel, Pioneers and Scottish Advisory Group), to support and contribute to a shared vision to end domestic abuse. You will be responsible for reporting back to the Scottish Government on activity and will support the Head of SafeLives Scotland to ensure that the programme is delivered on time, within budget and to an excellent standard.​<h1>Person specification</h1> (E) essential (D) desirable &nbsp; Experience <ul><li>Practical engagement with both service providers and users within a Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG), or closely related, setting (E)</li><li>Embedding quality principles and research within service delivery and/or learning and development activity (D)</li><li>Leading a demanding structured workplan and guiding/overseeing the work of others (internal and external to the organisation) (E)</li><li>Developing and maintaining effective relationships with a wide range of stakeholders at local and national level (E)</li><li>Presenting information (verbal, digitally, written) skilfully to share good practice and to influence change.
