Growing Engineering and Manufacturing Group HR Transformation Programme Broad Employee Lifecycle Exposure Strong Potential for Permanent Appointment

Would you like the opportunity to work directly with an experienced HR Director, support the development of a growing HR function and gain exposure to a broad range of HR activities across a successful engineering and manufacturing group?
If so, this could be the opportunity you have been waiting for.
This Is Not a Typical HR Administrator Position
This is a newly created role designed to support a growing HR function during an exciting period of organisational growth, transformation and investment.
The business is expanding its HR capability and is investing heavily in:
People and organisational development Digital transformation HR systems and automation Employee engagement initiatives Leadership development Recruitment and onboarding processes Continuous improvement programmes
As a result, there is now a requirement for a highly organised HR Administrator / HR Coordinator who can become a trusted support partner within the HR team and help build the infrastructure required to support future growth.
Initially offered as a six:month fixed:term contract, there is a genuine opportunity for the role to become permanent as the HR function continues to evolve.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Unlike many HR Administration positions that focus purely on processing paperwork and maintaining records, this role offers unusually broad exposure across the full employee lifecycle.

Recruitment and onboarding Employee relations administration Performance management processes Appraisal coordination HR reporting and analytics HR systems administration Payroll support Employee engagement initiatives HR transformation projects Process improvement and automation activities

The workforce includes:
Manufacturing and production employees Engineering and technical specialists Quality and compliance professionals Commercial and support teams Senior leadership stakeholders
