About the job
We’re looking for a proactive and organised HR Coordinator to join our UK & Ireland HR team and help deliver an outstanding employee experience across the full colleague lifecycle.
In this role, you’ll coordinate HR activity from offer through onboarding, development, and exit, partnering closely with Talent Acquisition, HR Business Partners, Pay & Benefits, and business leaders to provide seamless support to our teams across the UK & Ireland.
If you enjoy working at the heart of a team, bringing energy to everything you do, and making a real difference to people’s experience at work, this could be a great opportunity for you.
What your role is
1. Coordinate HR processes across the employee lifecycle, including joiners, movers, leavers, and employee changes.
2. Partner with Talent Acquisition, HR Business Partners, Pay & Benefits, and Business Services to deliver a seamless HR service.
3. Act as a first point of contact for operational HR queries, resolving issues or escalating when needed.
4. Manage HR data and processes within our systems, including Workday, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.

6. Support key HR initiatives across areas such as culture, engagement, wellbeing, diversity & inclusion, and talent development.
What you'll bring to the team
You’re a highly organised self-starter who enjoys seeing tasks through to completion and takes pride in delivering high-quality work. You’re comfortable coordinating across teams, managing multiple priorities, and adapting quickly when plans change.
You will have some experience or knowledge of HR or recruitment through a graduate program or equivalent, but more important is your interest in people, your willingness to learn, and your ability to build strong working relationships. You’re comfortable using tools such as Microsoft Office, and any exposure to Workday would be a bonus.
