We’re looking for a reliable and organised HR Assistant/Administrator to join the Hamptons Group team, supporting all our businesses including Tidysite Skip Services and Hamptons Metal Merchants.
This is a part-time role, ideal for someone who enjoys keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes. You’ll play a key role in maintaining accurate staff records and supporting day-to-day HR administration across a busy, hands-on business.
We need someone who can hit the ground running – keeping everything up to date, compliant, and easy to find.
Key responsibilities
- Maintaining and updating employee records (contracts, training, licences, certifications)
- Supporting onboarding and offboarding processes
- Keeping HR files organised, accurate and audit-ready
- Monitoring training requirements and expiry dates
- Assisting with recruitment administration (posting adverts, arranging interviews, responding to candidates)
- Supporting payroll with basic admin tasks (timesheets, absence tracking)
- Managing holiday and absence records
- Helping ensure compliance with company policies and employment legislation
- General office administration to support the wider team
What we’re looking for
- Previous experience in an admin or HR support role
- Highly organised with strong attention to detail
- Confident handling confidential information
- Comfortable using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)
- Able to work independently and manage your own workload
- Friendly, approachable, and happy to muck in where needed
- Experience in a similar industry (waste, recycling, construction, or logistics) is a bonus, but not essential
What we offer
- Flexible part-time hours that can work around you (once agreed, your schedule stays consistent)
- A supportive, down-to-earth team environment
- A varied role where no two days are quite the same
- The chance to be part of a growing, family-run group of businesses
- On-site parking
