Description

West London Waste Authority (WLWA)
West London Waste Authority (WLWA) is responsible for sustainable waste management across six London boroughs: Brent, Ealing, Harrow, Hillingdon, Hounslow, and Richmond upon Thames. To support our commitment to best-practice HR management, we are seeking expert HR consultancy support to provide strategic HR advice, employment relations guidance, and HR mentorship for our standalone HR Manager.

What We Are Looking For
WLWA is seeking a trusted HR partner to provide flexible, expert support in tackling complex employee relations cases, legal compliance, and strategic HR decision-making.

This support will be delivered through one of two engagement models:
Ad-hoc Call-Off Support (Day Rate) - Access to HR expertise on an as-needed basis, billed per day/hour.
Retainer Model - Ongoing monthly HR mentorship and advisory support with agreed hours.

Key areas of support include:
- Complex Employee Relations Case Support - Handling grievances, disciplinaries, terminations, and legal compliance.
- HR Mentorship & Soundboarding - Coaching and expert guidance on strategic HR issues and organisational change.
- Employment Law & Compliance Advisory - Ensuring WLWA remains compliant with evolving employment legislation.
- Mediation & Conflict Resolution - Supporting early intervention, case strategy, and settlement agreement guidance.
- HR Policy Development & Training - Reviewing policies, providing legal templates, and upskilling the HR function.

Who Should Express Interest?
We are interested in hearing from qualified HR consultancy firms or independent HR experts who:

Have a strong track record in supporting standalone HR professionals in the public sector or local authorities.
Offer expertise in complex employment relations, employment law, and strategic HR guidance.
Can provide responsive and flexible support in either a call-off or retainer model.
Ensure GDPR compliance and confidentiality in handling sensitive HR matters.
