1 Full-time (37 hours per week) Permanent role (does require full time hours due to volume and capacity for role)
We are looking for an organised, proactive and detail-focused People Administrator to join our People Function at the University of Gloucestershire.
This is a varied People administration role offering exposure across the employee lifecycle, including HR Help queries (and our HR Inbox), contract changes, absence and leave administration, payroll liaison, reporting and policy administration.

You will work closely with People Partners, People Advisors, Payroll, Operations, Talent and Data colleagues to help ensure our staff receive an efficient and positive People service.

You may already have some experience in HR, recruitment, payroll, administration, customer service, student services or another busy support function. What matters most is that you are organised, accurate, confident using systems, able to handle sensitive information appropriately and committed to providing a professional and inclusive service.
This could be a great opportunity for someone who wants to build their experience in a People/HR environment and develop a broad understanding of how a People Function supports colleagues across an organisation.

In this role, you will:
- provide a professional, inclusive and responsive People administration service.
- maintain accurate records on HR/payroll systems and electronic files.
- manage and respond to HR Help service queries, escalating more complex matters where appropriate.
- support monthly contract changes, absence, leave, family leave, casework and annual leave administration.
- support DBS checks and right to work administration.
