This role is ideal for an experienced administrator looking to further develop skills in a professional HR environment. You will provide high-quality business support to a busy HR team — focusing on meeting coordination, note‑taking, scheduling, documentation and maintaining accurate records. Rather than leading HR activities, you will support them administratively, helping the team run smoothly and efficiently.

• Preparing paperwork, agendas, and packs ahead of meetings
• Updating internal systems and records with accurate information
• Maintaining confidential documentation and filing in line with GDPR
• Supporting managers with diary coordination and general administrative tasks
• Providing wider team support such as inbox monitoring, file organisation, and document formatting

• Strong administration experience in an office, business support, or coordination role
• Experienced with note/minute‑taking ability (essential for this post)
• Excellent organisation and scheduling skills — confident managing diaries and meetings
• A high level of attention to detail and accuracy in written work
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
• The ability to handle confidential information respectfully and professionally

• You enjoy structured admin work and keeping systems organised
• You communicate confidently and professionally with staff at all levels
• You thrive on supporting a team rather than leading the HR process
• You're reliable, proactive, and able to balance priorities effectively
• You'd like to gain HR exposure while primarily focusing on administration

If you have excellent administrative skills, enjoy meeting support and note‑taking, and would like to work within a supportive HR team — we'd love to receive your application.
