As HR Services Administrator you’ll be making all the difference to the business, so we want you to bring your dynamic personality to work with you every day. Working with our Group HR team you’ll be providing quality HR administrative support, and assisting with the delivery of the HR strategy and central service delivery.

Working from a central level, you'll be delivering HR services and initiatives to the entire company so this is a great opportunity for exposure across the business, as well as meeting a lot of great people! You will gain insight to every area of HR from both our specialists and generalists at all levels, along with experience in every aspect.

You’ll be based in Birmingham and working in a hybrid working model as you will be supporting our Group HR team remotely where required.

Travel may include overnight stays where required and in particular you will travel to Dublin approximately every two months for a number of days at a time.

This is an HR support role, so you’ll be involved in many different activities within the department with a focus on central administration tasks. Some of the key responsibilities include:

• Supporting the Group HR team with administration tasks such as submitting expenses, recording absences, raising Purchase Orders, arranging meetings and booking travel
• Producing quality letters and correspondence; in particular to senior, HR and central employees
• Maintaining HR and Senior Manager personnel files and complying with company policies and initiatives

• Updating, maintaining and auditing HR and People systems and databases to ensure they remain accurate and compliant
