The Role
This role sits at the centre of the hotel's people processes — part data, part onboarding, part general manager support. You'll be the first point of contact for team member queries on people reporting, and the person making sure records, files and systems stay accurate as people join, move through, and leave the business.

Keep HR systems updated with accurate, current data, and run regular audits and data-cleansing across those systems
Act as the first point of contact for Team Member queries relating to people reporting
Develop and improve team reporting so it stays relevant as the business changes
Support the recruitment process, helping Heads of Department set up interviews and communicate with candidates
Deliver induction and onboarding for every new starter, so they get a proper welcome from day one
Maintain a complete personnel file for each team member — application form, offer letter, contract, references, declarations, signed job description, induction receipt, working time directive documentation and right-to-work evidence
Keep statutory training records current, and coordinate attendance on company training courses, including pre- and post-course briefings with managers
Take minutes at management meetings, and type and distribute them accordingly
Monitor sickness and absence levels, track lost productivity, and ensure return-to-work meetings happen promptly
Provide administrative support to the General Manager, including letters, reports, meeting organisation and confidential material
Coordinate travel arrangements, meetings and hotel planners across the team
Handle telephone, email and face-to-face enquiries professionally and responsively
Support the General Manager, Operations Manager and Department Managers with employee relations documentation and team member celebrations
Keep Team Member notice boards, including the Internal Vacancy Board, tidy and up to date with current legislation and company information
Coordinate work experience placements with local schools, colleges and universities
Handle all confidential information professionally and discreetly at all times
Follow cash and key handling, fire, security (including GDPR and PCI DSS), and Health & Safety procedures as laid down by the hotel and company
Comply with hotel and company rules as set out in the team member handbook
Represent the business's cultural values — passionate, real, inspiring, dynamic and enthusiastic — day to day
