Job description

Love a perfectly organised system? Get a little thrill from a contract that’s 100% right the first time? Keep reading.

We’re growing our People team at Place HQ and we’re looking for an HR Administrator to be the engine room of everything we do. You’ll keep our systems, documents and processes running smoothly so our people have a great experience from their first day to their last.

Where you fit:

You’ll report to our Head of People and work hand in hand with our HR Coordinators, who look after our leaders and give everyday HR advice. You’ll be the one who makes it all happen behind the scenes. When a new starter is joining, you make sure everything is ready before they walk in the door. When someone needs a report, you know where the data lives and that it’s accurate.

You won’t be expected to give HR advice or handle tricky employee relations matters. Those go to our HR Coordinators and Head of People. What you will get is a front-row seat to how they’re handled, and a team that’s genuinely invested in helping you grow your HR knowledge over time.

What you’ll be doing:

• Assist with offer paperwork, onboarding, and orientation sessions.


• Draft and issue employee documentation (contracts, salary changes, title updates, etc.)


• Run the admin behind onboarding and offboarding, from new starter packs and inductions to exit paperwork


• Manage the People team inbox and answer everyday employee questions


• Maintain HR systems, employee files, and ensure data accuracy.


• Work to agreed KPIs and Service Level Agreements with fast, accurate turnaround


• Support the HR Coordinator with projects, employee benefits, and day-to-day HR activities.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience in HR or administration: you might be an HR Assistant, an office or team administrator, or someone with HR study who’s ready for their first proper HR role.


• Serious attention to detail: you notice the missing signature, the wrong date and the typo, and you fix it before it becomes a problem.


• Strong organisation: you can juggle a busy inbox, competing deadlines and lots of stakeholders without dropping the ball.


• Confidence with systems: you pick up new software quickly and you’re comfortable with HRIS platforms, Microsoft 365 or similar.


• Discretion: you understand that HR information is confidential and you treat it that way.


• A warm, helpful approach: you’re the kind of person people feel comfortable coming to with a question.

You don’t need years of HR experience. We’re looking for someone organised, reliable and keen to learn, and we’ll help you build the rest.

The Benefits:

• Be part of a motivated and driven team who genuinely love to have fun along the way


• Access to ongoing training and a real pathway into HR


• Regular team and social events


• Subsidised TotalFusion gym membership


• Beautiful office in the heart of James Street
