Job Description
Are you a highly organised and people-focused professional looking for your next career move in human resources? Carer Agency is actively seeking a dedicated HR Assistant to join a dynamic team in the heart of Romford RM1. This is a pivotal role that offers an immediate start for the right candidate, providing essential support across a wide range of administrative and operational HR functions. As a leading recruitment and temporary staffing agency serving Romford and the wider Essex region, we connect talented individuals with businesses that value their skills. This particular opportunity is with a respected local employer known for its positive culture and commitment to staff development. Whether you are seeking a temporary position to gain diverse experience or a potential gateway to a permanent career opportunity, this role offers a fantastic platform to build your professional profile in a supportive environment.
The role of an HR Assistant is multifaceted, requiring a blend of meticulous attention to detail, strong communication skills, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. You will be the backbone of the HR department, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations from employee onboarding and record-keeping to supporting recruitment campaigns and handling confidential queries. At Carer Agency, we specialise in matching candidates with roles that suit their skills and ambitions. By applying through us for this Romford RM1 based position, you benefit from our local market expertise, a streamlined application process, and the support of a dedicated consultant who will advocate for you. We understand the local job market intimately, just as we do for roles like Finance Assistants in Edinburgh or Professional Cleaners in London. This isn't just another job posting; it's a chance to partner with an agency that is invested in your success and can offer ongoing access to similar immediate start roles across various sectors.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the first point of contact for HR enquiries, providing clear and confidential advice to employees and managers on policies and procedures.
- Manage the end-to-end employee lifecycle administration, including preparing contracts, processing new starter paperwork, and coordinating induction schedules.
- Maintain impeccable and GDPR-compliant HR records and databases, ensuring all employee information is accurate, up-to-date, and securely filed.
- Provide comprehensive administrative support for recruitment activities, such as scheduling interviews, communicating with candidates, and assisting with onboarding logistics.
- Assist with payroll preparation by collating timesheets, managing holiday and absence records, and liaising with the finance department to ensure timely and accurate processing.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience in an HR Assistant, Admin Assistant, or similar office-based role, with a solid understanding of HR processes and employment law fundamentals.
- Exceptional organisational skills and the ability to prioritise a varied workload in a fast-paced environment, much like the efficiency required for a Warehouse Safety Coordinator.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a professional and discreet manner for handling sensitive information.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (especially Excel and Word) and experience using HR Information Systems (HRIS). A keen eye for detail is non-negotiable.
Salary & Benefits
We believe in offering a competitive remuneration package that reflects your experience, skills, and the value you bring to the role. While the exact salary will be discussed upon application and is dependent on your background, it aligns with market rates for HR Assistant positions in the Romford area. The role is offered on a temporary basis with a strong possibility of becoming permanent for a high-performing candidate, offering excellent job security and career progression.
Beyond pay, working through Carer Agency comes with a suite of benefits designed to support you. You will benefit from weekly pay, ensuring you have regular and reliable income. Our registration process is fast and straightforward, getting you into work without unnecessary delay. You'll gain access to a wide portfolio of roles, not just in HR but across sectors, providing unparalleled flexible shifts and work patterns to suit your life. Furthermore, you will have the support of a dedicated consultant who provides ongoing career advice and advocates for you with employers. This holistic support system is what sets us apart, whether you're an HR Assistant, a Medical Receptionist, or a Site Manager / Supervisor.
