Our HR Projects team leads people‑focused change across the division, helping to improve processes, systems and the overall employee experience. We use structured project management, clear reporting and strong governance to keep initiatives on track and make sure change is delivered smoothly and effectively. As part of the evolving HR Operations plan, we're strengthening how we report on projects. Progress updates feed into a developing Power BI dashboard that we’re redesigning to be clearer, more visual and more useful for senior leaders. By working closely with project managers and using consistent templates, we identify key risks, issues, dependencies and areas of impact across the organisation. We’re also exploring creative ways to present this information, such as visual heat maps that show who is affected, when and how. Communication is another focus area. We’re reviewing what messages go out, when they’re shared and which channels are used, so we can create a more joined‑up communication approach across the project portfolio. We’re also looking at resource planning across HR—understanding the demand for support and comparing forecast vs. actual workloads. Alongside this, we’re improving how we demonstrate project outcomes and benefits, including exploring better Power BI visuals, automation opportunities and early uses of AI. During the eight‑week internship, you’ll gain hands‑on experience by contributing directly to this work. You’ll support project planning, help track risks and issues, and feed into progress reports. You’ll develop practical skills in organisation, communication, analysis and problem‑solving, as well as confidence in presenting information through clear, engaging slides and discussions. By helping enhance processes and improve reporting approaches, you’ll gain valuable insight into how project management works within a fast‑paced HR environment. By the end of your placement, you’ll have meaningful experience you can use in future interviews and a strong understanding of how effective project governance supports teams across HR.
