Grow Your Career. Make an Impact. Help Us Shape the Future of People Operations.

As our firm continues to grow nationally, we’re excited to welcome a proactive and detail‑driven People Delivery Administrator to join our friendly and fast‑paced People Delivery team in Plymouth. This is a permanent role supporting our People Delivery Lead, Naomi Marks, and working closely with colleagues across the wider HR function spread across three offices.

If you enjoy variety, like to keep things moving, and take pride in getting the details right, you’ll feel right at home here. This role will give you the chance to get stuck into the full spectrum of operational HR - from onboarding and employee lifecycle administration to wellbeing, policy, and process improvement.

You’ll be joining a team that genuinely cares about doing a great job, celebrates one another’s strengths, and shares an ambition to keep improving how we work. You’ll be supported, trained, and empowered to grow - whether that means developing specialist expertise, taking ownership of projects, or progressing into future roles within HR.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has some prior experience within a HR/People function or good administrative experience to join a team and firm who are passionate about realising the ambitions of our employees. At Foot Anstey we are hugely proud of our welcoming and open culture within the team and wider firm, where you will be personally and professionally developed, having regular check-ins to support your continued success. We care enormously about our work and are looking for someone who shares our values to help us deliver the best results to our internal stakeholders.

What you’ll do

Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Preparing letters and documentation across confidential and contractual matters
  • Managing onboarding from start to finish: drafting offers and contracts, running checks, arranging references, and coordinating induction activity
  • Creating and maintaining employee records with accuracy and care
  • Acting as the first point of contact for everyday HR queries, supporting managers and employees on wellbeing and policy matters
  • Assisting with payroll changes, ensuring joiners, leavers and updates are processed correctly and on time
  • Supporting HR projects, especially around systems, data and continuous improvement activities
  • Managing queries in our HR and Onboarding mailbox, responding promptly and professionally
  • Helping update policies and produce HR data reports

  • A collaborative approach and a willingness to pitch in wherever needed
