You'll help lead all things HR, team activities, and office management.
If you thrive in a vibrant environment, independently crafting solution driven policies and procedures, this role is for you.

  • Support IT team with equipment set-up and allocation.
  • Provide support to the Group finance team for reporting purposes and keep overview of operational UK supplier invoices to ensure prompt processing.
  • Support change management initiatives by being a trusted and vital intersection between senior management and the team.
WHO YOU ARE
  • Minimum 6+ years working in similar roles. Proven experience in the creative agencies ideal but not essential.
  • Recognised by previous teams as a hands-on, trusted and stabilising influencer.
  • Eye for detail with strong analytical and problem-solving skills. 
  • Solid knowledge of UK employment & immigration laws, best practice, MS Office and HRIS, and a keen interest in HR metrics.
  • Open to continuous learning and development.
  • Outgoing communicator who presents well and is passionate about creating a positive and inclusive work environment.
  • Experienced mitigator and conflict manager.
  • You take ownership of deliverables, managing tasks independently through efficient prioritisation.
  • You are always approachable and have a good-natured service attitude.
  • You respond quickly and remain calm under pressure.
  • CIPD qualification Level 5 desirable.
WHAT TO EXPECT
  • Thriving in a new environment with opportunities to develop your career in a flat structure.
  • Working in an international, integrated team with top talents from different fields.
  • A brand-new office with plenty of creative space to think, take meetings, and collaborate.
  • Fair pay in an attractive work environment with good projects, teams and vibes.
  • Flexibility to work remotely - whether from home, the north pole or somewhere warmer. We encourage warmer.
  • Structured onboarding (Groove-In Buddy, Feedback talks, state of the art IT Equipment and more).
  • Treat yourself with loads of perks and offers through Perkbox.
  • Consider yourself well cared for through Income Protection and Life Assurance, as well as 25 days holiday excluding BH, Christmas Office Closure, and your birthday off.
  • A working environment that ensures fair and equal opportunities for all. We live and support diversity, openness and mutual respect and welcome new colleagues - regardless of nationality, ethnicity, origin, religion, age, gender, gender identity and sexual orientation. You should too. It’s the 21st century.
