Overview

Our Central HR Service Delivery function is recruiting an HR Administrator to join their friendly and dedicated team.

This is a hybrid role, based part of the week in our modern city centre Chelmsford office which is easily commutable via train and bus, and part of the week available to work from home (after initial training in the role has completed). The role involves performing a wide range of HR administration and co-ordination tasks and is a superb opportunity for someone to gain experience across all aspects of first line HR Service Delivery and the full employee lifecycle. Working alongside our team of Human Resources experts in an innovative environment; this role is challenging and fast paced, as such, we’re looking for an ambitious character!

Experience in a similar HR Administrator / Co-ordinator, HR Officer, or Recruitment Administrator role would be ideal, however, we would consider applications from someone who has worked in a fast-paced process driven environment who has gained some awareness of an HR function from having researched HR as a desired career path, or started self-study (i.e. CIPD). Internally we brand our HR Service Delivery team roles as ‘HR Specialist’ and offer a potential career path to ‘Senior HR Specialist’ and beyond. We are proud that our HR Service Delivery team is viewed as a future talent pool for career paths both within our HR Operations team and across our Divisional HR teams with opportunities for progression into roles such as HR Advisor, HR Business Partner, HR Data Analyst and roles within Reward, Benefits and L&D.
