About the role
As the part-time Human Resources Coordinator, you will support key in-house employee lifecycle administration, including employment documentation, recruitment and onboarding and workforce compliance administration.
  
You will provide accurate, timely and confidential HR administration, ensuring workforce information remains current, complete and compliant. By coordinating efficient recruitment and onboarding processes, you will help managers appoint and induct new team members efficiently and safely.

Responsibilities will include:

• Keeping employment documentation, workforce records and compliance evidence accurate, current and audit ready.
