HR Systems Assistant (Temporary)

We're excited to be working with a well-established and highly respected organisation in the education sector to recruit an HR Systems Assistant for an exciting temporary opportunity.

This is an excellent role for someone who enjoys working with systems, has a keen eye for detail, and thrives on solving problems. You'll be joining a supportive yet busy HR Systems team, playing a key role in ensuring data accuracy and providing day-to-day systems support.

The role is predominantly remote, with an initial training period in Birmingham city centre (approximately two days per week for the first couple of weeks), followed by occasional office attendance thereafter.

Key Responsibilities

• Accurately maintain employee records within the HR Information System (HRIS), ensuring data is up to date, accurate, and compliant with GDPR and organisational policies.
• Provide first-line support for HR system queries, troubleshooting issues and escalating more complex problems where appropriate.
• Carry out regular data quality checks, resolving discrepancies and maintaining the integrity, security, and accuracy of HR data.
• Support data cleansing activities to improve data quality and ensure the reliability of the HR system.
• Manage user accounts and system access, ensuring permissions are maintained in line with organisational requirements.
• Assist the HR Systems Lead with day-to-day system administration, reporting, testing, process improvements, and HR systems projects.
• Produce routine and ad hoc reports from the HRIS to support the HR team and wider business.

To be successful in this role, you'll have:

• Experience working with complex systems, ideally HR systems.
• Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach to your work.
• A proactive, curious mindset with strong problem-solving skills.
• The ability to work independently while managing your workload effectively.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with a customer-focused and solution-oriented approach.
• Experience within the education sector would be advantageous but is not essential.

If you're looking for a varied temporary role where you can make a real impact while developing your HR systems experience, we'd love to hear from you.
