💼 What You’ll Be Doing

As a People Operations Assistant, you’ll be the glue that holds our staffing operation together. You’ll support the People Operations Manager in everything from logistics and scheduling to staff welfare and event-day buzz. No two days are the same – and that’s just how you like it.

Your day-to-day will include:

  • Helping us build amazing teams by assisting with recruitment, interviews and inductions
  • Coordinating the right people in the right roles, at the right time
  • Setting up check-in areas and making sure event days run smoothly
  • Managing rota updates and processing payroll with precision
  • Supporting our staff and ensuring their welfare, uniforms, and overall experience are top-notch
  • Handling admin and communications like a pro – staff, suppliers, managers, you’ll talk to them all

🌟 What We’re Looking For

We’re after someone who is:

  • Friendly, approachable and full of energy
  • Exceptionally organised with eagle-eyed attention to detail
  • Calm under pressure – especially on busy event days
  • A confident communicator who knows how to get the best out of people
  • Tech-savvy with solid admin and IT skills
  • A natural team player who’s always ready to pitch in and make things better

🕒 When You'll Work

  • Flexible hours including weekdays, weekends, early mornings and evenings – events don’t follow a 9–5!
  • On-site role, so you must live nearby or be ready to relocate

💸 What You’ll Get

  • £13.21 per hour
  • Free or discounted food on site
  • Free parking
  • Pension scheme
  • A buzzing work environment surrounded by brilliant people and epic events

🎯 Make Your Move

If you're ready to step into a role where every day matters, and you want to be part of a team that makes incredible things happen – apply now. We can’t wait to meet you.
