To be successful in this role you need to be the type of person who sets themselves high standards, is well organised and methodical, picks up tasks quickly, is proficient with the MS Office suite, and can demonstrate the ability to manage a busy and varied workload. Experience gained in a HR team is helpful, but it is not essential and full training will be provided.
