Job description

Great ideas come from different minds. That’s why we bring together engineers, scientists, analysts, and creatives from every background — and give them the trust, tools, and freedom to make a difference. What connects us is the mission: solving meaningful problems and building capability that protects what matters most.

And as the challenges evolve, so do we — working on the technologies that will shape tomorrow, not just today.

We’re looking for an organised and proactive HR Advisor to support our busy people team. In this role, you’ll provide both advisory and administrative support across a wide range of HR activities - from maintaining accurate data and producing reports, to offering first‑line guidance to managers and employees.

You’ll thrive in a role where no two days are the same, using your strong IT skills (particularly Excel, PowerPoint and SharePoint) to support people systems, processes, and project work.

Job Purpose & Key Responsibilities

• Maintain accurate records within HR information/pay systems and produce clear, insightful reports and data analysis.
• Provide first‑line advice to managers and employees on people policies and procedures.
• Support core people processes (e.g. absence management, exit interviews), ensuring data is well‑presented and records are up to date.
• Provide administrative support on projects, including scheduling meetings, taking notes, and tracking actions.
• Monitor group e‑mail boxes, responding promptly or escalating queries to the appropriate colleagues.
• Complete ad‑hoc administrative tasks such as raising purchase orders and preparing documentation for employee relations cases using templates.

Knowledge, Skills & Experience

• Strong customer service approach, with the ability to build positive working relationships.
• Exceptional attention to detail with the focus on accuracy and high‑quality output.
• Proficient to advanced skills in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, MS Teams, SharePoint and Outlook.
• Strong IT capability, with the ability to quickly learn new systems, produce reports, and present information clearly.
• Excellent organisational and time‑management skills, with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines.
• Clear and confident communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Ability to handle sensitive information discreetly and maintain strict confidentiality
• CIPD Level 3 preferred but not essential
• Competitive reward package – highly competitive salary, performance‑related bonuses, salary reviews and pension scheme.
• Work‑life balance – flexible working through flexi‑time and hybrid arrangements, plus 30 days' annual leave with the option to buy or sell additional holiday.
• Learning and development – access to over 20,000 LinkedIn Learning courses and our dedicated Roke Academy, supporting continuous learning and career development.
• Health and wellbeing support – flexible benefits including life assurance, a Healthcare Cash Plan, Employee Assistance Programme and eye care support.
• Private medical cover – access to private healthcare through Bupa.
• Recognition and rewards – length of service awards that celebrate and reward your contribution.
• Supportive and inclusive culture – a range of employee community groups that bring colleagues together, foster meaningful connections and create a genuine sense of belonging.

All benefits are subject to eligibility, terms and conditions.
