Welcome to the Senior People Professionals Network 

If you're a CIPD member operating at a senior level with strategic responsibility for people and organisational policy, we'd love you to join us. 

This is your trusted space – somewhere you can share insights openly, reflect on the challenges that keep you up at night, and strengthen your leadership resilience alongside people who truly get it. 

Who's it for?

We welcome professionals in roles such as Head of HR, Senior HR Business Partner, People Lead and HRD or above – those who are often reporting to board or executive level and actively shaping people strategy and organisational culture.  

What can you expect? 

You'll become part of a warm and active online community on Mighty, where conversations flow and connections deepen. Throughout the year, you'll also have access to a programme of quarterly national online events, designed to inspire, inform, and bring you together with fellow leaders. 

Why join?

Connect with peers who face similar challenges, gain fresh perspectives that spark new ideas, and have your voice heard. Your insights will also help inform CIPD's research and policy work, giving you a real opportunity to shape the future of the people profession. 

What's next for this network? 

We’ve got a programme of upcoming events designed to support and connect people professionals across the UK. 

Below you’ll find all upcoming quarterly national events.  Topics will be decided nearer the time of each event to reflect the changing world of work and the people challenges that it brings. This enables the sessions to be current, focussing on the challenges that are happening for you right now. 

Please put the dates in your diary, sign up to become a network member, and look out for communications from us with more information on each event as it is released.
