Picture a warehouse. Now make it bigger. Now double its size.
When your business supplies aluminium for windows, doors, conservatories and balustrades at scale, you need great people to make it all happen. Behind every smooth operation, there’s a team making sure the right talent is in the right place at the right time — and that’s where you come in.
We’re looking for an organised, proactive and people-focused HR Assistant to join our team at AluK, with a key focus on recruitment, onboarding, engagement and talent initiatives. You’ll play a vital role in attracting and welcoming new talent, supporting managers through the recruitment process, and helping to build a positive and inclusive employee experience from day one.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in recruitment who’s ready to grow their career in a broader HR role. You’ll work closely with hiring managers, employees, and the wider HR team to deliver a seamless and professional service.
What you’ll be doing:
* Recruitment & Talent:
* Manage end-to-end recruitment for a variety of roles — from drafting job adverts and screening candidates to coordinating interviews and issuing offers.
* Partner with hiring managers to understand workforce needs and help them attract the right talent.
* Maintain accurate recruitment data and help identify ways to improve processes and candidate experience.
* Onboarding:
* Coordinate all onboarding activities to ensure new starters have a smooth, positive and engaging introduction to AluK.
* Prepare new starter documentation, contracts and right-to-work checks.
* Support managers to deliver effective inductions.
* Engagement & Talent Support:
* Contribute to employee engagement initiatives and internal communications.
* Support the delivery of learning and development and talent programmes.
* Help implement HR projects that strengthen culture and retention.
* General HR Administration:
* Maintain employee records accurately and confidentially.
* Provide general administrative support to the HR team across the employee lifecycle.
What we’re looking for:
* Previous experience in recruitment — either in-house or agency.
* A proactive, organised and people-centred approach.
* Excellent communication skills and attention to detail.
* Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
* A collaborative mindset with a genuine interest in supporting people and teams.
In return, you’ll get:
* 33 days annual leave (including bank holidays), increasing to 38 with length of service.
* Your birthday off – paid!
* A pension scheme (5% employee / 3% employer).
* Learning & Development opportunities to support your growth.
* Wellbeing support through our Employee Assistance Programme.
* A flu jab to help keep you healthy through winter.
* A discretionary profit-related bonus scheme – when we do well, so do you.
1. Once you’ve passed probation, you’ll also receive:
* Cycle2Work scheme
* Access to Medicash health plan
* Discounted gym memberships
At AluK, we’re proud of our diverse workforce and committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can bring their true selves to work without fear of discrimination.
