Working in a team of three and based at our vibrant Base Camp, you’ll lead the coordination of essential people-related tasks, from onboarding and policy compliance to systems management and recruitment support.

Who we are
We’re an award-winning hospitality business based in the charming Little Chalfont. Most recently, we've been awarded as a top-ten employer by The Sunday Times! We started in January 2020 with nothing but a laptop, and we have grown across 5 years to employ 450 people, win industry accolades, and operate in over 50 locations. We are about to move into an amazing new office that features dedicated training rooms and a fantastic Cookery School. We are investing into L&D significantly as we want to have the best training opportunities possible for our people. In a November 2024 people survey, 100% of respondents said they know what is expected of them at work, and 90% of people said my supervisor, or someone at work, seems to care about me as a person. Clearly, we are doing some things well, but the purpose of this role is to ensure we can hit 99-100% in all categories and ensure we continue to deliver on our mission for the long term.
Day to Day
-Be the go-to person for all things people admin and compliance – from right to work checks and policy sign-offs to keeping everyone on track with mandatory and safeguarding training and probation milestones.
-Keep our People & Payroll system (Roubler) in tip-top shape – accurate, up to date, and ready for whatever comes our way.
-Make every stage of the employee journey smooth, supportive, and seamless – from warm welcomes during onboarding to well-organised offboarding.
-Drive the admin side of our recruitment process, managing our ATS and keeping hiring managers in the loop so we can bring brilliant people on board.
-Lend your calm, organised support with employee relations tasks – drafting letters, coordinating meetings, and making sure everything runs smoothly.
-Jump in to help with sales and mobilisation projects – ensuring our people processes are ready to support exciting new site launches.
-Stay aligned with our company goals and team objectives, and keep growing through your own personal development journey.
-Be a trusted extra pair of hands for our MD, Ops and Finance teams when needed – collaboration is what we’re all about.
-Give every visitor a genuine, friendly welcome – you’re the first smile they see at Base Camp!
-Keep our space buzzing and beautiful – whether that means fresh flowers, a killer playlist, or making sure the snack cupboard is always full of treats.
Leadership
-Roll with the times – stay up to date! Look for innovation everywhere you go.
-Always have your antenna up to pick up on issues, new opportunities and changes.
-Engage with the team to promote our values and positive workplace vibe
-Tackle challenges early and constructively – never letting them snowball or roll over.
-Be a team player who sets the tone through actions, not just words
-Follow and model Culinera policies and procedures so as to demonstrate best practice at all times
-Help plan and deliver memorable team events, training days and celebrations to bring people together
Who you are

-You are someone who wants to deliver quality without compromising on your value system.
-A professional – someone who acts with integrity and professionalism at all times
