• Ensure our HR platform (Natural HR) is the single version of truth on employee details, maintained with the latest employee information and that workflows operate correctly and in a timely manner.

e.g.
OH referral, exit interviews, capability reviews.

• Be the internal subject matter expert for our people systems NaturalHR (HRM), Skills for Health (LMS), and Hireful (ATS) You will have the support from the Head of HR, a People Buisness Partner and an HR apprentice and the wider Corporate Services team.
We do not expect to find anyone who specialises in all activities or the systems we use, but familiarity with any of the systems named in the job profile will be an advantage.
Given the breadth of the role, we are also willing to consider people with just UK Payroll experience (part time basis).
