The Role

We’re looking for a proactive People Operations Coordinator to join our People team. This role is well suited to someone at the start of their career or looking to make a move into the world of People/HR.

You’ll be the first point of contact for our business when it comes to People queries, keeping our team inbox running smoothly and supporting key employee lifecycle processes. From preparing contracts and updating our HR system to helping onboard new joiners and making sure leavers have a great send-off, you’ll play an important role in making sure our people have a positive experience.

This is a very operational role, where you will be keeping things organised, accurate and moving forward, while learning how a People team functions in a fast-growing business.

Key Responsibilities

• Monitoring and managing the People team inbox, responding to queries or directing them to the right team member
• Acting as the first point of contact for employee queries and requests
• Supporting employee lifecycle processes, including drafting contracts, variation letters and other documentation
• Maintaining accurate and up-to-date employee records in our HRIS (HiBob)
• Supporting onboarding and offboarding processes to ensure a smooth experience for all employees
• Assisting with benefits administration and providing support with payroll processes
• Helping the People team with ad hoc projects and administration as needed

About You

We’re looking for someone enthusiastic, organised and ready to learn. You do not need years of HR experience, what matters most is your attitude and willingness to roll up your sleeves. You’ll be a great fit if you:

• Are looking to start your career in People/HR or are excited to make a career move into this field
• Have some prior experience in an administrative or customer-facing role (HR experience is a plus, but not essential)
• Are organised, detail-focused and able to keep on top of multiple tasks at once
• Are confident using systems and comfortable working with data and documents
• Bring a proactive, can-do attitude and enjoy helping people
• Care about creating a positive employee experience and supporting smooth processes

This is a great opportunity for someone who is eager to learn and develop their career in People/HR within a supportive, high-growth environment. You will gain hands-on experience across the employee lifecycle while working closely with an experienced People team.
