Job description

Nottingham City Centre | Part-Time | £27,500 (Pro-Rata) | Hybrid Working | Some Travel Required

We are recruiting for an expanding Professional Services firm in Nottingham, seeking a dedicated, problem-solving PART TIME HR Assistant. Are you ready to contribute to a growing team and build something great with your colleagues?

This dynamic and growing professional services firm, located in Nottingham with offices across Birmingham, Leicester, and London, has a team of 60+ employees. They are united by ambition, collaboration, and a commitment to delivering outstanding service. They are looking for a standalone HR Assistant/Administrator to support their HR functions, with guidance from Employment Solicitors when needed.

This role is not your typical HR admin position. You will be involved, empowered, and supported to take ownership of HR processes from the ground up, including training coordination, recruitment admin, and policy preparation — acting as the go-to person to make it all happen.

Why You’ll Love This Role:

• You’ll Own It: As this is a standalone role, your ideas and initiatives will be valued. You will work directly with managers and the leadership team, providing support across performance management, training, onboarding, and more, including sourcing external training.
• You’ll Grow With Them: The company is expanding through new offices and acquisitions, offering significant growth potential for this role.
• You’ll Be Part of the Action: As part of a small but dynamic team, your proactive approach and problem-solving skills will be highly valued.
• You’ll Be Supported: You will have access to legal guidance from external employment solicitors and daily collaboration with experienced team members, ensuring you are never alone in your role.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Coordinating employee training and CPD across teams
• Supporting managers with performance reviews and training resources
• Maintaining HR systems and records (e.g., leave tracking, contracts, policies)
• Assisting in recruitment processes, from writing job ads to onboarding new hires
• Preparing reports for senior management and supporting internal communications
• Addressing HR queries, ensuring legal compliance, and resolving day-to-day issues

What You Bring:

• Degree in HR, Business, or Management
• Solid experience in an HR administrative role
• Organized, proactive, and detail-oriented mindset
• Strong communication skills — confident, clear, and approachable
• Resilient and resourceful — viewing challenges as opportunities
• Tech-savvy — proficient with Google Workspace and HR systems
• Knowledge of employment law and HR best practices (preferred)

Location & Flexibility: Based in Nottingham city centre with hybrid working options. Occasional travel to other central UK offices (train-accessible) will add variety to your role.

Ready to be the backbone of this growing team?

Apply now and help shape the future of our business through effective people practices. Let’s grow together.
