HR Administrator - Swindon

Summary

We're looking for a customer focused HR Administrators to support our busy People Services Centre where you’ll play a key part in supporting the organisations on-boarding process during our seasonal peak. If you are inquisitive, solutions-led and you'd like to join a fantastic team, then this could be the role for you.

These role is offered on a fixed term contract until the end of July 2023, and internally the role is known as People Assistant.



What it's like to work here

We’re bigger than you think, we’re more complicated than we appear and we’re larger scale than you’d imagine. We’ve got passionate people in our teams, and we’ve got so much more we want to achieve. We’re for ever, for everyone and we really mean that.

Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon, however there will be an opportunity to explore and agree hybrid working arrangements which strike the right balance for you and the Trust. The role will involve travel to our head office to meet with stakeholders and to carry out work.



What you'll be doing

You'll be working in our People Service Centre, administering the on-boarding processes for all new hires. Using the HRIS Oracle Platform, you will be responsible for a range of processes including new starter contracts, creating employment records and performing pre-employment checks.

As well as our permanent staff, the National Trust hires several thousand fixed-term colleagues each year to help us cope with our busiest periods. So, as part of your role, you'll coach and support managers in order to encourage good practice and eliminate breaches of policy, providing a professional, customer focussed response with the aim of minimising complaints whilst adhering to agreed service levels and policies. The People Service Centre is “one team” so you’ll need to be flexible and work on other people-related activities when required.

We’d love to hear from you if you have:
  • Experience of working in a HR environment
  • Practical use of different systems & Microsoft applications
  • Good at working collaboratively to deliver business outcomes
  • Solution finding skills and can use established processes to find pragmatic answers
  • Ability to confidently manage sensitive and confidential employee information

It’s important that our people reflect and represent the diversity of the communities and audiences we serve. We welcome and value difference, so when we say we’re for everyone, we want everyone to be welcome in our teams too.
