About the Role
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.

Attending HR-related meetings to take clear, accurate notes or minutes
Preparing paperwork, agendas, and packs ahead of meetings
Updating internal systems and records with accurate information

Supporting managers with diary coordination and general administrative tasks
Providing wider team support such as inbox monitoring, file organisation, and document formatting

We’re Looking For Someone Who Has:

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

This Role Would Suit You If:

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
