  • Handling payroll-related queries.
  • Facilitating elements of the recruitment process.
  • Owning the sickness absence procedure, including all associated administrative.
  • Supporting with wider HR duties, including wellbeing initiatives and ad hoc projects.

 

There’s also the opportunity to gain exposure to Employee Relations matters (depending on your experience), working alongside senior team members on more complex cases.

 

What we’re looking for:

  • Previous HR experience (12 months +).
  • CIPD level 3 + or equivalent HR degree.
  • Strong administrative skills with excellent attention to detail.
  • Confident communicator who enjoys working with people.
  • A team player – team fit is hugely important in this collaborative environment.
  • Proactive approach with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Interest in developing broader HR knowledge, including Employee Relations.

 

If you’re ready to hit the ground running in a varied and people-focused role and are available for an immediate start we’d love to hear from you.
