Personnel CV or Human Resources CV Example To Copy

To help you create an effective Personnel CV or HR Resume, especially at senior levels, you should focus on the added value your service brings to an organization. Avoid the 'cost-centre' way of thinking and turn it into 'profit-centre' thinking.

In other words, HR Directors must be effective Business Partners to the operational management with an eye on the bottom line. Use the sample CV I've included on this page for the best way to prepare your own document.

The HR Director, Head of Human Resources, or possibly Personnel Director depending on the nature of the organisation, has senior responsibility for all people based activity within an enterprise with both an operational and strategic remit.

The job of HR Director includes issues such as resource planning and recruitment; training and development and managing Employee Relations issues. She may also oversee the company's salary review process, payroll and all compensation and benefits (remuneration) issues. The Head of HR works closely and in support of the senior management team and other department heads.

When you apply for such a job, you need to ensure your covering letter is also up to scratch: see example cover letter on this page.

HR directors, and occasionally HR managers, may head up several different departments that are each led by functional or specialized HR staff such as the training manager, the compensation manager, or the recruiting manager.

Increasingly the emphasis is on 'business partnership' so the HR Director may also be running teams of Business Partners throughout the organisation. Being a business partner implies that you as a HR professional, not only provide a service, but also add value to the organisation.

He or she also contributes to overall company strategy and policy making by advising the board on the personnel and/or human resource implications of its decisions.

Main Responsibilities, Experience And Abilities You Need To Demonstrate In Your HR CV:

• overall control of the personnel / human resource function;
• formulating personnel systems and strategies appropriate to the company’s corporate mission and goals;
• recruiting and selecting staff;
• developing remuneration and reward procedures;
• keeping the board informed on personnel and employee-relations policies, as needed, to preserve and facilitate company strategy;
• planning and directing employee training and development programmes;
• improving management / employee communications, including mediating in disputes and advising line managers on how to implement personnel policies;
• ensuring compliance with employment law;
• ensuring that health and safety procedures are adequate.
