About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for an organised, people-focused individual to join our team.

  • Primary focus on supporting end-to-end employee lifecycle (recruitment, onboarding, changes, offboarding)
  • Prepare employment documents and maintain accurate HR/payroll records
  • Use HR systems for recruitment, payroll support, and reporting
  • Coordinate training administration and maintaining training records
  • Support HR reporting, KPIs, and employee surveys
  • Assist with Health & Safety and driving wellbeing initiatives
  • Provide general HR admin support including correspondence, inductions, and exit interviews

Skills and experience

  • 1-2 years’ administration experience is highly favourable
  • Sound knowledge of Microsoft Office (especially Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint), and the ability to learn HR/Payroll systems quickly
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to interact professionally at all levels of the business
  • High level of confidentiality and integrity when handling personal and sensitive employee information
  • Strong time management skills with the ability to juggle multiple priorities and meet deadlines
  • Accuracy and attention to detail, particularly when working with data, contracts, and documentation
  • Flexibility – while hours are generally standard, there will be times you will need to adjust your schedule to support the wider team
  • Customer-service mindset with a helpful, approachable style when supporting employees and managers
