My client is looking to appoint an experienced HR & Operations Coordinator to join their established HR team based in Doncaster.

This is a varied, hands-on coordination role, supporting the day-to-day running of the HR function within an established business operating across the infrastructure and energy sectors.

The team is looking for someone who can take ownership of administrative processes, improve efficiency and provide reliable support across a range of HR and business support activities.

This is not a traditional HR advisory position, and previous HR experience or CIPD qualifications are not essential. The hiring managers are particularly interested in candidates from strong administrative, office coordination, facilities coordination or compliance backgrounds who are confident managing multiple responsibilities and working independently.

The role will involve maintaining accurate employee records, coordinating recruitment and onboarding activities, supporting learning and development processes, preparing reports and ensuring documentation is organised and audit-ready.

A significant part of the position will involve working with Excel to manage data and produce weekly and monthly reports. The team currently operates several manual processes, so someone who is confident using Excel, including VLOOKUPs, and can identify opportunities to improve administrative efficiency would be particularly well suited.

You will be joining a small, supportive and experienced HR team where attention to detail, professionalism and a proactive approach are highly valued.

The business is ideally looking for someone who wants to establish themselves within a coordination role over the medium to long term, taking ownership of processes and becoming a dependable member of the team.

The position is primarily office-based in Doncaster, with the potential for up to two days of hybrid working once established in the role. This flexibility is discretionary rather than contractual.
