In this role, you will play a vital part in delivering a proactive and people-focused HR service across the charity.

Key Responsibilities:

• Administering and managing the charity’s pension schemes, ensuring compliance and accuracy.
• Supporting payroll processes and working closely with Finance to meet deadlines.
• Advising managers on sickness absence, wellbeing, and Occupational Health referrals.
• Maintaining HR systems and records with precision and confidentiality.
• Providing advice, guidance, and support on a broad range of HR queries.

About You:

• Experience of pension administration (essential), with knowledge of government schemes highly desirable.
• Background in payroll and HR processes within a busy HR function.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, able to build positive relationships at all levels.
• Highly organised, accurate, and adaptable, with excellent IT skills.
• CIPD Level 3 or equivalent experience.

This is a full-time, office-based position (Monday–Friday) for the duration of probation, with scope for some flexibility thereafter. You’ll be joining a supportive and values-driven organisation, playing your part in ensuring the smooth running of essential services for a remarkable community.

If you’re a proactive HR professional with strong pensions knowledge and a passion for people, we’d love to hear from you
