We are seeking a HR Officer to join our friendly HR Team. You will be one of the first points of contact within the team and will liaise with a range of different stakeholders from across the University.

We are a small and friendly team, so this is a good opportunity for someone who is looking for a varied HR role within a supportive environment.
