Who we are looking for
As we continue through an exciting period of growth, we are looking to appoint a bright, personable and highly organised individual to support our busy and vibrant HR function. This role will play a key part in ensuring the smooth administration of employee records, payroll processes and recruitment activity across the business.
This is an excellent opportunity to become part of a fast-paced, thriving business, offering genuine opportunities for development and long-term progression. If you are looking to build your career within a growing organisation and contribute to a business focused on creating lasting value in the property market, we would be delighted to hear from you.
The successful candidate will be responsible for maintaining accurate employee records, including setting up new starters, updating personal details, holidays and sickness records, and managing references and qualification checks. You will coordinate six-monthly and annual staff appraisals, oversee general HR administration such as filing, archiving and the creation of new personnel files, and support the management of training records and the company training matrix.
From a payroll perspective, you will collate payroll information from managers, input data for smaller payrolls and submit monthly nil returns where required, ensuring accuracy and confidentiality at all times. You will also provide recruitment support by assisting with applications, arranging interviews and supporting new starter inductions on an ad-hoc basis. In addition, the role will occasionally include reception cover and general administrative support as needed.
Tell us about you
Previous experience in an administration role is essential, with payroll, recruitment and confidential administration experience considered highly desirable. You should be confident working independently as well as part of a wider team, comfortable supporting inductions, and capable of managing multiple priorities with a high level of organisation and attention to detail. Strong time management skills and a professional, proactive and approachable communication style are key to succeeding in this position.
In return, MCR offers 23 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing by one additional day for each completed year of service up to a maximum of 25 days, along with your birthday off as an additional benefit.
