What you’ll do as a HR Generalist

- Coordinate payroll activities, ensuring employee information is accurate, deadlines are met and any discrepancies are identified and resolved promptly.
- Maintain accurate employee data and support the day-to-day management and improvement of our HR system, HiBob, including reporting, workflows and automation.
- Turn people data into meaningful insights by creating reports and dashboards, identifying trends and helping the People Team make informed decisions.
- Champion smarter ways of working by improving HR processes, simplifying workflows and exploring opportunities to use technology and AI to enhance efficiency and employee experience.
What you’ll bring to the team
- At least 3 years' experience in HR operations, HR administration or a generalist HR role, with a strong understanding of the employee lifecycle.
- Practical employee relations experience, with the confidence to guide managers, exercise sound judgement and recognise when additional support is needed.
- Experience coordinating payroll activities, with excellent attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy, confidentiality and meeting deadlines.
- Strong HR systems and analytical skills, ideally with experience using HiBob or a similar platform, alongside Excel, Power BI or other reporting tools.
- A proactive, solutions-focused mindset, with experience improving processes, using data to identify opportunities and taking ownership of tasks through to completion.
