Job description

We're looking for a highly organised and people-focused HR & Recruitment Administrator to join a busy HR team in Grantham. This is initially a temporary position, with a genuine opportunity to become permanent for the right person.

It's a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, is confident dealing with people and wants to build their experience across both HR administration and recruitment.

Working as part of the HR team, you'll provide day-to-day administrative support across the employee lifecycle, while also helping with recruitment activity and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Providing general HR administrative support to the wider HR team
• Assisting with recruitment from vacancy through to onboarding
• Preparing new starter paperwork and supporting the onboarding process
• Maintaining accurate employee records and HR systems
• Supporting with contracts, letters and other HR documentation
• Assisting with absence, holiday and employee records
• Responding to HR queries and directing more complex matters to the appropriate member of the team
• Helping to ensure HR processes and records remain accurate and up to date

We're looking for someone who is organised, reliable and confident dealing with people.

You'll ideally have previous experience within HR administration, recruitment administration or a similar people-focused administrative role.

You'll also need:

• Strong administrative and organisational skills
• Excellent attention to detail
• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Confidence using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Outlook
• The ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritise effectively
• The ability to handle confidential information appropriately
• A proactive attitude and willingness to get involved

A CIPD qualification or previous HR experience would be advantageous, but attitude, organisation and relevant administration experience are equally important.

If you're looking for a role where you can get stuck into a busy HR environment, develop your skills and potentially secure a permanent position, we'd love to hear from you.
