Your new company

I'm very proud to be working with this really cool company as they expand their team and move from being a start-up to being a medium-sized business. Lots of their staff talk about their welcoming and inclusive culture in online reviews (so they aren't just buttering up the boss!) and there's lots of inter-department collaboration.

They're at the point where they need a really great, full-time administrator to work with their HR team and that is why they've partnered with Hays.

Your new role

Your job is going to be to provide admin support to the HR Director, HR advisor and office manager throughout the entire employee lifespan, from recruitment (posting job adverts and reviewing quality of response) to organising interviews to checking applicants' right to work documents to updating the HR systems and making sure there's no information gaps. You'll issue new contracts to staff with any changes to their Ts & Cs like promotions or when someone moves departments. You'll respond to emails that come into the HR inbox, order office stock and deal with deliveries of office equipment & consumables and do the monthly reporting for the HR director.

Phew! You're definitely not going to get bored!!

What you'll need to succeed

Our perfect candidate will be someone who has worked in a HR admin position before, but please note, this isn't a quick jump into a HR job, so if you're studying CIPD, we don't want to be used as a stepping stone – this is definitely an administrator's position.

This job is all about people and communicating, so we'll be looking for you to show us that in both your career history and your character. Of course, you'll be great at Word, Outlook and Excel as well as being able to spring from one task to the next (which could be something very different) each day with exceptional attention to detail.
We're looking for someone who doesn't wait to be told how to do something and if you've come across something in the past that's new to you, and you're unsure of, you've taken it upon yourself to research and teach yourself.

What you'll get in return

This is a great company to work for with truly fabulous people working there. Your boss is a very experienced and empathic person, so you'll learn loads from them and, I know this sounds really superficial, but the offices are GORGEOUS, so you'll be working in a lovely environment which shouldn't really make a difference, but we can all agree that it does a bit.

Other benefits include

• Hybrid working - 3 days in office, 2 days at home after the first couple of months
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays and you get your birthday off
• Casual dress
• Company pension
• Cycle to work scheme
• Gym membership
• Health & wellbeing programme
• Private medical insurance
• Massive on-site car park, so you'll never have to worry about getting a space.
• 2 mins walk from the nearest bus stop if you don't drive with a direct bus service from Queensgate
