In the role you will be responsible for designing engaging processes across the full employee lifecycle as well as building all HR system architecture to support employee focused, forward thinking culture.

• Provide self-service training to all current employees and new joiners
• Update any employee changes to terms and conditions on the system
• Review all policies and processes and templates

This role is suited to a "self-starter" who will thrive in a busy, operationally focused, generalist HR Manager role and can combine strong attention to detail with a structured, practical approach. You'll have prior experience in setting up HR processes and systems, and be driven and pro-active in managing projects, with a strong outcome focus. CIPD, HR, Psychology or Legal qualification is required. The role is based in central London, with occasional travel to Cambridge when government guidelines permit.
