**JOB TITLE: Deputy HR Manager**

**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**:

- Act as the first point of contact on HR queries of substance (as opposed to process), providing rapid responses which are user-friendly, professionally correct and clearly articulated. Where an immediate response cannot be given, ensure that the enquirer is aware that their query is being addressed and when it will be resolved.
