Other tasks will include: Supplies ordering, monitoring site audits that come in and actioning issues, helping with any queries or issues or cover needed.
Recruitment
Turnover is high and even though we are a cleaning company, we do offer temp cover and recruitment options to select clients so jobs need to be tracked and filled quickly.
We also need to keep track of our existing staff holidays to cover and outsourced temporary or ongoing cover roles from our many clients.
This recruitment is fast paced and really needs someone who is great on the 'phone, can advertise, screen applications, shortlist and interview at a pace and keep track of all the roles and progress to ensure deadlines/start dates are met whilst not comprimising on accuracy and quality service.
General HR Admin
Following recruitment comes onboarding new staff, gathering staff information, referencing, day to day staff queries, managing systems, holiday and sickness records and much more. I am not looking for a CIPD qualified person, just someone with ideally some UK recruitment and admin experience.
Operations also collate all the information for our fortnightly and monthly payrolls and we look after the time and attendance system so this will be another area to get involved in.
