Are you an organised and proactive HR Administrator looking for a varied role where you can make a genuine contribution to the employee experience?

We're recruiting a People Administrator to join a busy and collaborative People team for a company based on the outskirts of Watford. The successful candidate will provide essential support across the full employee lifecycle, from recruitment and onboarding through to employee engagement, learning and development. 

This is a varied position that would suit someone with previous HR administration or people coordination experience who enjoys being organised, working with people and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Working closely with the wider People team and managers across the business, you'll provide day-to-day administrative support across a broad range of HR and people activities.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the full employee lifecycle, including new starter administration, onboarding, employee changes and leaver processes.
• Maintaining accurate employee records, personnel files and HR systems, ensuring all information is up to date and compliant.
• Coordinating recruitment activity, including job adverts, interview scheduling and candidate communication.
• Acting as a first point of contact for general HR queries, escalating more complex matters where appropriate.
• Supporting absence management, employee benefits and the administration of family leave.
• Assisting with employee relations processes through meeting coordination, documentation and general case administration.
• Coordinating performance reviews, employee meetings and key people processes.
• Supporting the organisation and delivery of internal and external training, maintaining learning records and monitoring completion of mandatory training.
• Helping coordinate employee engagement, wellbeing and internal communications initiatives.
• Producing basic HR reports and maintaining accurate people data to support the wider team.
• Providing general administrative support across people projects and wider business activities.
• The role also has some involvement in wider operational administration, including company assets, fleet records, supplier information and health and safety coordination.

We're looking for someone who is naturally organised, approachable and takes pride in getting the detail right. You'll enjoy working as part of a team but will also be comfortable taking ownership of your own workload and getting things done.

Candidate Requirements:

• At least 1–2 years' experience in an HR administration, HR coordination or People Operations role.
• A good understanding of core HR processes and the employee lifecycle.
• Excellent organisational skills and strong attention to detail.
• Confidence using HR systems and Microsoft Office, including maintaining data and producing basic reports.
• Experience supporting recruitment and onboarding processes.
• Strong communication skills and a friendly, professional approach when dealing with employees and managers.
• The ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment.
• A proactive attitude, with the confidence to identify where things can be improved.
• The ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion.
• Experience supporting Learning & Development activities would be beneficial, although the ability to coordinate, organise and keep accurate records is just as important.

This is a great opportunity to join an established business in a varied People Administrator position, gaining exposure to different areas of HR and Learning & Development.

You'll be part of a supportive team where organisation, collaboration and a positive approach really matter. It's a role where you can develop your knowledge, build your experience and play an important part in ensuring employees receive a professional and positive experience throughout their time with the business.
