We are currently recruiting for a Temporary HR Assistant to join a busy HR team on an immediate basis.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced HR Assistant who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and is confident managing the detail behind busy people processes.

The role will provide essential administrative support to the HR team, with a particular focus on HR compliance, employee records, recruitment administration and data management.

The Role

You will be responsible for supporting the HR team with a range of day-to-day administrative activities, including:

• Maintaining accurate employee and HR records

• Assisting with recruitment administration and onboarding
• Managing and updating information within the organisation's ATS

About You

We're looking for someone who is organised, reliable and comfortable working at pace, with excellent attention to detail.

You’ll ideally have previous experience within an HR administration or HR assistant role and be confident dealing with confidential information and a high volume of administrative tasks.

Experience of recruitment administration would be beneficial, but this is not a sourcing-focused recruitment role. The emphasis is on the administration, compliance and coordination that sits behind the recruitment and HR processes.

You’ll also need to be comfortable learning new systems, as the business is implementing a new ATS and full training will be provided.

There is potential for the role to develop into a permanent opportunity for the right person

If you’re an experienced HR Assistant who can hit the ground running and enjoys being the person who keeps everything organised behind the scenes, we’d love to hear from you.
