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.

* 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 a 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
