At Magna our vision is to create great homes together. We have ambitious plans, and are seeking creative, aspirational, and talented people to join our fast paced, adaptable, and highly collaborative environment.

The role and what you take care of:

At Magna, we believe a brilliant colleague experience helps us create great homes together. As our People Services Administrator, you will be a welcoming and dependable first point of contact, providing a seamless, customer-focused service to colleagues across the organisation. The role plays an important part in keeping our People systems accurate, relevant and up to date, ensuring colleagues, managers and the People team can access the information they need. With exceptional attention to detail and excellent organisational skills, you will provide accurate, efficient support that colleagues can trust, while taking ownership of your workload, balancing changing priorities and working collaboratively to achieve positive outcomes. If you are proactive, approachable and always looking for better ways to do things, this is a great opportunity to make a meaningful contribution within a supportive and forward-thinking People team.

• Maintain accurate and up-to-date records within our People systems by creating, inputting and updating data, ensuring colleagues, managers and the People team have access to correct and relevant information. You will also action process changes to terms and conditions, issue updated contracts for salary, working pattern and probation changes, manage basic and enhanced DBS renewals, and keep “Peoplesafe” information up to date to support colleague safety.

• Able to confidently communicate with colleagues at all levels of the business. As you are the first line of support for the whole People team, you will need to develop a broad knowledge of the wider People team’s roles to promptly forward any queries you cannot take ownership of.

• Ensure strict compliance with UK employment legislation along with Magna’s own policies, procedures and processes - A comprehensive role profile is attached to this advert on our website.

What you need to be successful:

• Excellent administrative and proven organisational skills, with the ability to meet strict deadlines, manage multiple priorities, work well under pressure and consistently produce accurate results.

• Experience of working effectively both independently and as part of a team, supported by prior relevant work experience; specific qualifications are not essential.

• Previous background in handling confidential information, together with experience of using People, Payroll or HR software and the ability to use Microsoft Office applications. Knowledge of “Cascade” would be advantageous.

• A proven commitment to delivering great customer service, building positive customer relationships and being recognised as a trusted point of contact.

• The confidence to challenge existing ways of working, identify how things could be done differently and contribute ideas for improvement.
