We are working with a well-established global software business, and they are looking for an experienced HR Operations Assistant to join the business ASAP for a 3-6 Month Fixed contract.

This is an immediate need, and candidates need to be able to start on short notice (max 2 weeks). There is also an opportunity for the role to move into a permanent position once the contract has been completed.

This is a hybrid role, 3 days in the office and 2 days home.

The role would be ideal for candidates who have worked in a role that has involved high volume on-boarding (up to 30 per month), and ideally within a similar industry i.e. fast-paced technology, professional services, financial services or similarly high-growth environment would be an advantage

Reporting into the Head of HR and working as part of the HR function, the role will own the end-to-end onboarding administration process, ensuring each new joiner has a smooth, well-coordinated and compliant experience. You’ll work closely with Recruitment, IT, Training, Office and hiring managers to ensure all pre-employment checks, documentation, system tasks and onboarding logistics are completed accurately and on time. Key duties will include;

* Working in a busy and fast paced role, responsible for Onboarding Coordination, New Joiner Administration, HR Administration, compliance, data reporting and assisting with other activities in the HR team

* Own and coordinate the full onboarding administration process for up to 30 new joiners per month.

* Issue employment contracts and relevant onboarding documentation

* Process online background screenings, reference checks and other pre-employment checks, tracking progress and following up where required.

* Act as the first point of contact for new joiner queries, including questions relating to onboarding, documentation, references and pre-employment checks.

* Maintain accurate onboarding trackers, checklists and People Ops records, ensuring data is complete, up to date and audit ready.

* Support the administration of leaver processes, including raising relevant tickets and ensuring key steps are completed.

* Coordinate onboarding schedules, liaising with the Training team to ensure induction dates and training sessions are booked in advance.

* Book meeting rooms, arrange lunches and coordinate practical logistics for induction sessions and new joiner events.

* Prepare new joiner kits and ensure all onboarding materials are ready ahead of each start date.

* Prepare weekly recruitment and onboarding reports, ensuring data is accurate, clear and useful for stakeholders.

* Provide first-line support for People Ops queries, triaging requests and escalating where appropriate.

For this role candidates will need to have proven experience within HR and have supported in a high-volume environment, managing all aspects of the onboarding process.

Candidates will need to hold excellent organisational and accuracy skills, plus be confident, hold strong communication and interpersonal skills. This is a busy and fast paced role, and they need candidates who can work autonomously.

Excellent role to join a growing and market leading business, initially on a contract basis, but real scope for this role to move into a permanent opportunity. Excellent benefits included.

Immediate need, so please apply online and a consultant from Cameron James will be in touch ASAP
