  • Assisting with employee lifecycle activities, from onboarding through to exit processes
  • Helping colleagues navigate HR systems and resolving basic system queries

About you

You’ll likely bring:

  • Previous experience in an administrative role, ideally within a busy environment
  • Confidence working with systems, spreadsheets, and general office software
  • A strong sense of discretion when handling sensitive information
  • The ability to prioritise tasks and manage deadlines effectively
  • Clear communication skills and a helpful, approachable style

Nice to have (but not essential)

  • Experience within an HR or people-focused role
  • Exposure to HR systems or databases
  • An understanding of HR processes or employment regulations
  • CIPD Level 3 (or an interest in working towards it)

Due to the office location- you must be able to drive

What is in it for you
