This is an exciting opportunity to join the People Operations team within the People and Culture Directorate at Versus Arthritis. This role will be critical in undertaking administration tasks and processing data in relation to the volunteer and employee life cycle, along with providing advice and guidance in relation to people policy and processes.

About the role

The People Information Assistant will play a key role supporting the people journey with involvement in all aspects of the employee and volunteer life cycle including recruitment, onboarding and induction, contract variations and leaver processes with a key focus on volunteering administration. The successful candidate will also play an active part in contributing to process development and improvement and enhancing the customer experience.

About you

If your knowledge, skills and experience include the following then we’d love to hear from you:

• Experience of human resources administration processing with a good understanding of the people life cycle.
• Passionate about delivering excellent customer service.
• Excellent planning and organisational skills, with a keen eye for detail.
• A commitment to collaboration and teamwork.
• Good Knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite, in particular Outlook, Word and Excel.

*As a hybrid worker the expectation is that you will spend around 40% of your working time in our office spaces or working in community settings. As an inclusive employer we will consider home-based working for anyone where office-based hybrid working would be a barrier to being able to work for us, for example for someone living with a long-term health condition or disability.

You must be based, and hold the right to work, in the UK to apply for this position.
