HR Coordinator
Cambridge or Chelmsford
£17,972.14 per annum (full time equivalent £26,209.37)
24 hours per week
HR in a Students' Union isn't quite like HR anywhere else.
With student staff balancing shifts around lectures, elected officers leading campaigns, and a professional team keeping everything running behind the scenes, our workforce is diverse, dynamic, and constantly changing. HR in a Students' Union is fast‑paced, occasionally unpredictable, and rarely dull.
We're looking for a HR Coordinator to join our small team - someone who is as comfortable with detail as they are with people, and who cares that everyone, from a first‑time student employee to a long‑serving member of staff, feels looked after.
You’ll be involved in recruitment, training records, and day‑to‑day HR administration, all within an organisation that has students at its heart.
This is an entry‑level role, so we’re not expecting years of HR experience. We are looking for someone organised, discreet, and genuinely interested in people — who wants to grow their career somewhere with real purpose.

The closing date is Wednesday 18th March at 23:00, but if you’re interested in applying, please don’t wait until the last moment – we are anticipating a high volume of applications and may close the vacancy sooner than this date.
Interviews will be held during w/c 23rd March.
