The purpose of the HR Team at Grosvenor is to make business success inevitable through our people; creating a high performance and inclusive culture that great people want to be part of. With that in mind we work together as a team to make that happen through all people related activity ranging from strategy, resourcing, remuneration, people development/engagement, as well as driving performance and organisational culture change.
All roles in our team are critical to help us deliver our goals and this position is no exception. It’s a varied and busy job, reporting to one of our HR Business Partners. The role will have a split focus – working with our Recruiter to provide excellent recruitment support and with the HR Operations Team to provide HR administrative support across our business groups.
This role is a great opportunity for someone seeking to start their career in HR with opportunities to learn the basics and get involved in a variety of HR activities. You will need to be prepared to get stuck in and work in a fun but fast paced and high-performance environment. As a small business there are times when we all have to pitch in where necessary to get the job done, but you will find our friendly team to be collaborative, committed to delivering for the business, and always happy to help each other out. We are confident that we will be able to offer an apprentice a great introduction to the various HR disciplines with plenty of opportunities to learn.
The successful candidate will complete the HR Support, Level 3 Apprenticeship which is on average an 18-month apprenticeship.
