This is a great opportunity for someone earlier in the HR career to join a supportive and collaborative team, gaining valuable experience of the practical HR activities necessary to ensure a scaling international business thrives. You’ll encounter a variety of employee relations cases, right to work and visa administration and auditing, and a lot more as no two days are ever the same in HR. This is an initial 12 months contract with the possibility of extension and permanency in the future.
