People Services Advisor

South West Water | Exeter | £27,000 - £29,000 | 6–9 Month Fixed-Term Contract | Hybrid Working

The Organised Mind Behind Every Great Employee Experience

At South West Water, our people are at the heart of everything we do. Behind every successful new starter, promotion, contract change and employee journey is someone making sure every detail is handled accurately, efficiently and professionally.

We're looking for a highly organised, proactive and resilient People Services Advisor to join our People & Culture team in Exeter.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys juggling multiple priorities, and takes genuine pride in delivering an exceptional service. You'll be the person who keeps things moving, spots issues before they become problems and brings order to a busy and ever-changing workload.

If you're naturally organised, calm under pressure, can think outside the box while prioritising effectively and enjoy making a real impact behind the scenes, we'd love to hear from you.

Why This Role Matters

As a People Services Advisor, you'll play a critical role in supporting employees and managers across South West Water throughout the entire employee lifecycle.

From onboarding new colleagues and coordinating employment checks to supporting contractual changes and leavers, you'll ensure every process is delivered accurately, compliantly and with care.

As part of a business that supports the UK's Critical National Infrastructure, the quality and integrity of our people processes are essential. Your work will directly contribute to maintaining accurate records, supporting compliance and helping protect our organisation and our people.

What You'll Be Doing

As a key member of our People Services team, you'll:

Deliver accurate and timely HR administration across the full employee lifecycle
Prepare and issue contracts, offer letters, variation letters and employment documentation
Maintain accurate employee records within our HR systems, ensuring GDPR compliance
Act as a first point of contact for employee and manager HR queries
Conduct vetting checks and manage security clearance processes, ensuring all candidates meet the required compliance, screening and eligibility standards prior to appointment.
Support recruitment administration and onboarding activities
Coordinate and administer pre-employment and BPSS checks
Monitor key dates, deadlines and clearance renewals, proactively following up where required
Work closely with Payroll and People & Culture colleagues to ensure employee changes are processed accurately and on time
Produce HR reports and support internal and external audits
Identify opportunities to improve processes, systems and ways of working

What We're Looking For

Essential

Experience in HR Administration, HR Shared Services, People Operations or a similar HR support environment
Strong organisational and administration skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities
Experience working in a fast-paced, high-volume role
Excellent attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
Confident communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships
Strong understanding of confidentiality, GDPR and handling sensitive information
Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and HR systems
Ability to obtain and maintain BPSS clearance

Desirable

Experience supporting BPSS, vetting or pre-employment screening processes
CIPD qualification, or currently working towards one

What's In It For You?

Competitive salary of £27,000 - £29,000
Hybrid working available following successful completion of your training and induction period
A supportive and collaborative People & Culture team
Opportunities for development and career progression
The chance to work for a purpose-led organisation serving communities across the South West
A varied role where no two days are the same

At South West Water, we believe in rewarding our people for their hard work and dedication. As our
People Services Advisor you'll enjoy:

Competitive Salary – Based on experience and skills
Bonus Scheme – Rewarding your performance
Pension Scheme – Helping you plan for your future
Healthcare Benefits – Access to employee assistance programs
Professional Development – Support for career growth with training opportunities
Employee Discounts – On various products and services
Generous Annual Leave – Take time to recharge with our holiday entitlement

Closing Date: 29th July 2026

The post holder will be required to obtain and maintain National Security Vetting (NSV) clearance appropriate to the role.

We may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Please note that the successful candidate will be subject to a mandatory DBS check as part of the onboarding process.

Be yourself, we like it that way. Together, we will build a culture of belonging, where inclusion is instinctive. Diversity is our strength and a reflection of our communities. We care, we value everyone, we celebrate uniqueness.

Our core values, which are essential to our success, are:

Be Rock Solid - Build trust and be trusted. Be the one we all look to and can depend on.

Be You - We want you to bring your best everyday. Be yourself and make your mark in your individual way.
