People & Culture Officer
Salary: £26,043 + £4,000 London Weighting
Contract: 12 Month Fixed-Term Contract
We are working in partnership with a values-driven organisation undergoing an exciting period of transformation following a recent merger. As part of this change, the HR function is being reshaped, creating a fantastic opportunity for a Senior HR Officer to join a busy and evolving People team.
This is a hands-on, operational role where you’ll play a key part in supporting the organisation through post-merger activity, helping to streamline processes, support managers, and ensure high-quality HR delivery across the business.

About the Role
Supporting a headcount of approximately 310 employees, you will be involved in a wide breadth of HR activities, including:

• Managing a shared HR inbox and acting as a first point of contact for employee queries
• Supporting recruitment activity in a post-merger environment
• Assisting with HR administration via Cascade HRIS (contracts, changes, letters, record keeping)
• Contributing to a significant HR file audit project to ensure compliance and accuracy
• Providing day-to-day operational HR support to managers across the business
• Supporting low-level employee relations casework (e.g. note taking, meeting minutes, exposure to processes)
• Working collaboratively with the wider HR team including HR Officer, HR Manager, and senior leadership

This is an excellent opportunity to gain exposure across multiple levels of HR, including interaction with senior stakeholders up to Director level.

About You
We’re looking for someone who is proactive, adaptable, and ready to roll up their sleeves in a fast-paced environment. The ideal candidate will bring:

• Previous experience in an HR Officer or similar HR support role
• A confident communication style, with the ability to engage effectively with managers
• A self-starter mindset with strong organisational skills
• A positive, “can do” attitude and willingness to get involved in all aspects of HR operations
• Ideally working towards or holding a CIPD qualification (Level 3 or above)

Cultural fit is key  as you will be joining a close-knit, collaborative team and someone who brings energy, initiative, and a team-first approach will thrive.

People & Culture Officer - Why Apply?

• Opportunity to be part of a significant organisational transformation
• Exposure to a broad range of HR activities and senior stakeholders
• Supportive team environment with opportunities to develop your HR career
• Potential for longer-term opportunities beyond the initial contract
