HR & OD Coordinator

£31,500 pro rata | Bath | Hybrid (3 days office, 2 days home)

Fixed-Term | 9 months | 37 hours per week

Good Processes. Better People Experiences.

There's a lot happening in our HR & OD shared service team right now — and we need an experienced pair of hands to help us get through it well.

We're implementing a new HRIS, maintaining two systems during the transition, reshaping workflows and helping managers become more confident and self-sufficient in handling people processes. You'll also play a key part in making it easier for managers to handle people processes themselves — which means the tools, guidance and support all need to be right.

What you'll be doing

• Managing HR processes and workflows across the employee lifecycle — from onboarding and contracts through to leavers — making sure records are accurate, compliant and up to date

• Working across two HR systems during a transition period, so comfort with technology and an eye for detail are essential

• Acting as a first point of contact for HR and OD queries from colleagues and managers — providing accurate guidance, signposting the right processes and helping managers build their confidence to handle things themselves

• Supporting the rollout and embedding of our new HR system, helping colleagues get to grips with it and identifying where workflows can be improved or simplified

• Contributing to process improvement — reviewing how things are done, suggesting better approaches and helping design workflows that work for everyone

About you

You've worked in HR administration before — ideally across more than one organisation, so you've picked up different approaches and ideas along the way. You understand the employee lifecycle, you've used HR systems to manage workflows, and you're confident enough in your HR knowledge to ask questions when something doesn't look right.

When you spot a pattern in the queries coming in, you'll suggest a better way. When a process could be simpler, you'll say so. You're the kind of person who improves things as they go — not because you've been asked to, but because you can see a better way. You're organised, thorough, and comfortable managing multiple priorities without dropping things.

Essential:

• Solid experience in HR administration across the employee lifecycle

• Experience using more than one HRIS to manage HR workflows and data

• CIPD Level 3 (Foundation) or equivalent professional qualification

• Working knowledge of employment legislation including GDPR

• Strong attention to detail — accuracy matters in everything from contracts to system data

• A proactive approach — you spot issues, suggest improvements and act without waiting to be asked

Desirable:

• Experience supporting an HRIS implementation or system migration

• Experience driving self-service adoption with managers

• Background in housing, public sector or not-for-profit organisations

What you'll get in return

Beyond a salary of £31,500 pro rata and the chance to do work that matters, you'll get:

• 26 days annual leave per year (plus bank holidays) rising to 29 days after 3 years

• Your birthday off as an extra holiday

• Up to 10% matched pension contribution

• Hybrid working (3 days office, 2 days home)

• Flexible benefits which might include a Health Cash Plan

• Access to an Employee Assistance Programme for your own wellbeing
