- Compliance & Reporting: Maintain accurate HR databases and assist with basic reporting and audit checks.
- General Coordination: Provide administrative support for recruitment activities, training sessions, and general office operations.
What We Are Looking For
- Strong organizational skills with meticulous attention to detail.
- Previous office administration experience (HR or payroll exposure is a plus, but full training will be provided).
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a strong customer-service mindset.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook).
- Discretion and integrity when handling sensitive and confidential information.
- Full commitment to working on-site Monday to Friday.
