HR Assistant London, England
Job description
ABOUT US
Transforming Lives Through Excellent Education
London Met is an extraordinary institution. Equity and social inclusion have
always been our driving principles, and it's what makes the University so
unique. Our organisation is distinctive, both in its eclectic and diverse
community of students and staff, and also for its historical role in serving
some of London's most deprived boroughs. Everything we do is
underpinned by our philosophy that an individual should have the
opportunity to transform their life through the power of education.
Equipping our students with the tools for their future is at the heart of our
academic offering. We pride ourselves on providing our students with
access to a wealth of opportunities and professions. Our graduates benefit
personally, but also contribute their unique perspectives to society, culture,
public service and the economy in all areas of London, the UK and around
the world.
Our new hybrid working approach gives our staff the flexibility to work
in a way that better suits their lifestyle. We are highly committed in
the ongoing further development, support and progression of our HR team.
ABOUT THE POST
We have an opportunity for someone looking to start a career in
HR. If you already have some experience of working in a HR
department, or related area such as payroll or recruitment, in a
large and complex organisation, then this HR Assistant role will
be a good opportunity for you to learn and develop your skills
and knowledge in a broad range of HR activities and functions.
You will work as part of the HR operations team providing
administrative support to our Schools and Professional Service

involving advertising vacancies, producing contract letters,
amendments to contracts and answering queries from across
the University. You will have an understanding of a wide range
of office administration procedures and systems, the ability to
speak confidently and courteously to visitors and telephone
callers and have good communication skills and interpersonal
skills both oral and written.
Confidentiality and tact are important attributes within this
environment.
