Location: This role will be based across our offices in Lowestoft and Norwich, and sometimes working from clients sites across the region.

Are you ready to take the next step in your career, with a rewarding HR career path, working as part of a team with purpose, variety, and room to grow? You will be working for a forward-thinking, people-focused consultancy supporting a wide range of businesses across Norfolk and Suffolk.

What will your role look like?

You'll be supporting the People Director and supportive HR team in delivering outsourced HR services to local clients. Your days will be varied, from organising recruitment and onboarding activities, supporting investigations, to coordinating wellbeing initiatives and learning events.

You'll also get stuck into marketing, policy updates, and system improvement projects. You will have strong organisational skills, drive to succeed and IT savvy taking systems and software usage in your stride.

This is a developmental role, designed to help you grow into a confident and capable HR professional. As your knowledge builds, so will your involvement with clients, projects, and strategic HR tasks.

Why join the company?

This isn't just a job, this is an investment in your future. You'll become part of a collaborative, supportive team that thrives on curiosity, adaptability and making a difference for businesses. If you love learning, enjoy variety, and want to grow into a future HR Manager, this is the perfect place to start.

You'll benefit from:

• Structured L5 HR Apprenticeship with paid learning hours
• Hybrid working: home, office, and client sites
• Flexible Monday-Friday schedule
• Exposure to all areas of HR & people operations
• Wellbeing platform and continuous development support
• Flexible working
• A workplace that values your growth and ambition

Are you who they're looking for?

To thrive in this role, you'll need:

• Experience in admin or business support (HR experience a bonus!)
• Strong IT skills (Word, Excel, Teams, SharePoint, Forms)
• Excellent organisation and communication skills
• A proactive, self-starting attitude and the confidence to work remotely
• A genuine interest in people, processes, and continuous improvement

If you're keen to build a career in HR, love a challenge, and want to work in a supportive, people-first environment then we would love to hear from you.
