HR & Recruitment Administrator

HR & Recruitment Administrator

We are seeking a highly organised and personable administrator to join our friendly HR team. This is a key role in the smooth and efficient running of our busy HR department and the HR & Recruitment Administrator will coordinate all aspects of HR administrative and recruitment processes whilst ensuring compliance with statutory Safer Recruitment requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

• Recruitment Co-ordination: manage the school’s recruitment processes ensuring that the relevant and necessary processes and information are obtained before, during and after the recruitment project

• New Starter Onboarding: ensure that all new starters are compliant with the Single Central Register requirements and that Risk Assessments are carried out in line with regulatory requirements and the school’s policies where appropriate

• HR Administration: Carry out administrative routines for new starters, leavers and any changes to employment terms and conditions or personal information, update iSAMS and HR files accordingly.

• Communications: Act as the first point of contact for internal and external enquiries to HR, including monitoring of the HR inbox and directing incoming emails to the Director of HR and HR Advisor as appropriate.

What We’re Looking for:

• Excellent organisation and time management skills

• Ability to work calmly under pressure and to prioritise competing deadlines

• Highly developed interpersonal skills with the ability to communicate with people at all levels

• We are a small team and the ability to work flexibly and supportively with others is key

• Previous experience of working in HR, and in education, would be an advantage but is not essential. Most importantly, you will be efficient, keen to learn and quick to pick things up. This would therefore be a great opportunity for an experienced administrator with an interest in HR and people.

What We Offer:

• CIPD Qualification: the opportunity to study towards CIPD qualification fully-funded (on successful completion of probation period and subject to agreement)

• Career growth and opportunity: the role provides full exposure to all aspects of recruitment and HR administration

• Additional benefits: free lunch, free onsite parking, use of the school gym and heated swimming pool (at designated times) and access to free fitness classes are all included

• Pension scheme membership (including life cover)

Hours: Full-time, all year-round. There is some flexibility around start and finish times and the possibility of a small reduction in working hours during school holiday periods for the right candidate.

Salary: £26,500 to £27,500 per annum (dependent on experience)
