About the Role
A school is looking for an organised and personable HR Admin to support the smooth day-to-day running of its HR function.
You'll be the first point of contact for routine HR queries, keeping records accurate and processes moving so that staff and managers get the support they need without delay. It's a varied role that would suit someone who enjoys detail, deadlines and working alongside a busy team.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Maintaining accurate and confidential employee records and HR systems.
- Supporting recruitment administration, including advertising vacancies, arranging interviews and issuing correspondence.
- Preparing contracts, offer letters and other HR documentation.
- Administering pre-employment checks and new starter paperwork.
- Responding to day-to-day HR queries from staff and managers, escalating where appropriate.
- Supporting the administration of absence, leave and payroll-related information.
- Assisting with HR meetings, note-taking and general team administration.
What We're Looking For
Essential:
- Strong administrative experience, ideally within an HR or people-focused team
- Excellent organisation, planning and time management skills
- Confidence handling sensitive and confidential information
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- A good level of digital literacy, including Microsoft Office
- Ability to work to deadlines in a busy environment
Desirable (but not essential):
- Previous experience of HR administration within a school or wider education setting
- Experience using an HR or management information system
- An enhanced DBS on the Update Service
If you're an organised administrator ready to bring your HR experience into a school setting, we'd love to hear from you.
