Key responsibilities include:
- Maintaining employee records and acting as a superuser of our HR and Payroll system (XCD).

- Sending employee communications and drafting HR correspondence.
- Providing administrative support to HR Business Partners and the wider HR team.
- Covering Recruitment Administration activities when required.
