This is an exciting and unique opportunity to join IBCA’s newly forming Human Resources (HR) team and play a key role in setting up an expert Learning and Development function that enables IBCA to have the right capabilities and skills at the right time to support organisational delivery.

At the moment all IBCA roles are hosted by Cabinet Office within the Civil Service. However, once IBCA becomes operational, it is anticipated that most of these roles will transfer to IBCA, which is a new Arms Length Body (ALB) separate from the Cabinet Office. Roles that transfer to IBCA from Cabinet Office will maintain the same (Infected Blood Compensation Authority) or substantially the same terms and conditions of employment that are overall no less favourable. It is anticipated that employees who move from Cabinet Office to IBCA will be able to continue to participate in the Civil Service Pension arrangements with no break in their pensionable service. Roles commencing after IBCA has become operational will be with IBCA itself on similar terms and conditions. All successful candidates will receive full details of the terms and conditions of employment for their role with their formal job offer.

Please note that the mission of IBCA means that it is likely to be operational for a period of approximately 5 to 7 years. When IBCA’s work begins to wind down, IBCA employees will receive support and practical guidance to find a new role, whether in the Civil Service, another Arms Length Body (ALB), or an external employer.

The Head of Learning and Development (L&D) is responsible for leading the delivery of a high performing and professional expert L&D function for the Infected Blood Compensation Authority (IBCA).

As IBCA is a new organisation a key objective of the role will be to develop and implement IBCA’s L&D strategy and offer which will include developing both the L&D service and it’s associated L&D policies and process.

This is a great opportunity for the successful candidate to be able to shape the role and function further as IBCA grows, including any mandatory learning requirements and developmental pathways for a wide range of Professions.

The role includes leadership of the full L&D function (including the L&D budget), on behalf of the HR Director and will require excellent communication skills in order to support and influence stakeholders and senior leaders.

The Head of L&D will:

· Be responsible for the IBCA L&D Strategy and associated L&D delivery model.

· Lead a team to deliver an expert learning business partnering service to all IBCA Directorates, advising and supporting to seek high quality, best value learning and development opportunities for all staff.

· Build and maintain relationships across internal and external stakeholders, ensuring best practice is shared and adopted as well as lessons learned.

· Be an active member of the wider professional L&D community, forging strong links with Framework account managers and the wider network to remain up to date and responsive to latest directions in L&D and represent IBCAs requirements effectively.

· Work collaboratively with IBCA’s recruitment team to ensure business readiness and support the induction of IBCAs rapidly expanding workforce.

· Manage the L&D budget on behalf of the HR Director.

· Provide advice on strategic development initiatives and programmes that support IBCAs objectives and build capability across the business.
