Job description

The opportunity:

We are seeking a part-time HR Admin Assistant to join our team and support our continued growth as an organisation, having welcomed a fourth school to the Trust in November. As well as working closely with the HR team, you will often be the first point of contact for new staff members to the Trust, helping forge strong relationships and directly impacting a positive start to their employment with the Trust.

The role offers an exciting opportunity for someone looking to work part-time and term time hours to enable a good work/life balance and who wants to have an impact on our schools and the young people we serve.

What we offer:

Staff are our most valued asset, and we are continuously working to introduce initiatives or make changes which support them both professionally and personally. Some of the initiatives we have recently introduced are a new Health and Wellbeing Cash plan for staff and their dependents; a generous discretionary leave scheme; and we have made changes to the performance review process ensuring a strong focus on continued professional development - all of which have been led by the HR team.

The role offers flexibility - you will work 5.5 hours on a Monday, Tuesday and Thursday but you can choose your start and end times (within the operational hours of 08:00 - 16:00) . You will work across 40 weeks of the year (term time weeks plus 3 weeks to be confirmed between you and your line manager).

You will be part of a small but dynamic HR team who are highly committed and work hard, but who also create a fun and incredibly supportive environment.

We recognise that your induction and training will be key to your success and we will invest time to ensure you are given all the guidance and support needed at the outset and over the ensuing weeks to fulfil your role effectively.

We will uphold a culture that promotes kindness, collaboration and recognition, ensuring an open, safe, supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels heard, valued and empowered to contribute.

Key responsibilities for the role include:

Administration in relation to:

• Employee onboarding and offboarding.


• Recruitment and selection, including reference requests and maintenance of the Single Central Record.


• Database administration (HR Employee Information System, Training Database, School Information System).

The successful candidate will:

• Be an excellent communicator (both verbal and written)


• Be highly organised


• Have up to date knowledge of Microsoft


• Have prior experience in an administrative role
