HR Coordinator

Role overview

An established global executive search and leadership advisory firm is looking for an HR Coordinator to join its London team. This is a strong opportunity for someone aiming to build a career in HR within a high-calibre, professional environment. The role is based in central London, in modern office space, and offers exposure to a collaborative team and a business known for investing in its people.

What the role involves

You will support the internal HR team across the complete employee journey, from joining through to exit. The position covers onboarding, offboarding, benefits administration, HR record keeping, and project support. You will report to a Senior HR Business Partner and gain broad, practical experience in a professional services setting.

Key duties

• Coordinate onboarding for new employees, including right-to-work verification and completion of required paperwork.
• Keep employee information accurate and up to date in Workday.
• Administer employee benefits and respond to related queries.
• Prepare leaver paperwork and support the offboarding process.
• Assist with the twice-yearly performance review cycle and the annual employee engagement survey.
• Help update HR policies and the employee handbook.

Candidate profile

The ideal candidate will be educated to degree level and will already have some experience in HR administration or coordination. Experience in a professional services or financial services environment would be especially valuable. A solid understanding of UK employment law, strong accuracy, and a proactive attitude are important. Experience using Workday would be helpful, but it is not essential.

Package and working arrangement

This is a permanent role with a salary of £35,000 to £40,000. The working pattern is hybrid, with three days in the office and two days working from home.
