  • Utilise HRIS and Excel to maintain accurate employee records and reporting

  • Support reward and benefits administration and development

  • Coordinate HR administration activities to ensure efficient and compliant processes

  • Contribute to continuous improvement of HR policies, procedures, and systems

  • Lead strategically on selected initiatives in partnership with the HR Manager

About You

To be successful in this role, you will demonstrate:

  • Confidence managing ER casework independently

  • Strong IT skills, particularly Microsoft Excel and HR systems (HRIS)

  • Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage a high-volume workload

  • Analytical capability and confidence working with people data and reporting

  • Energy, enthusiasm, and a genuine passion for HR
