  • About the Role

  • Note: this is a part time role until end of December 2025. This is a part-time opportunity, estimated to be working 20 hours per week. We're open to discussing flexibility around hours and scheduling

    What you will be doing:

    Our People Team is a dynamic and fast-paced environment, and we’re looking for someone exceptionally organised with a keen eye for detail to help keep people operations running smoothly. Ideally you'll have a background in administration, People Team support or recruitment. But what really matters is your ability to communicate clearly, work proactively at pace, and bring plenty of common sense to the table.

    We’re looking for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment. At NPL, we learn from each other, respect one another, and work together to improve—for ourselves and for our customers. We’re always pushing boundaries, but we keep things simple when they don’t need to be complicated. Together, we’re helping make the impossible, possible

  • About You

  • What we’re looking for:

    • Previous experience in People Team or administrative support, particularly within a recruitment function (preferred)
    • Strong attention to detail and excellent organisational skills
    • Interview arrangements and candidate management experience 
    • Great communication and strong interpersonal skills
    • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and HR systems
    • A proactive team player with a can-do attitude

    If you’re ready to be part of a team that values growth, collaboration, and making a real impact, we’d love to hear from you

    Please note:  Applications will be reviewed, and interviews conducted throughout the duration of this advert therefore we may at any time bring the closing date forward.  We encourage all interested applicants to apply as soon as practical.

    We actively recruit citizens of all backgrounds, but the nature of our work in specific departments means that nationality, residency and security requirements can be more tightly defined than others. You will be asked about this throughout the recruitment process. To work at NPL, you will need to obtain BPSS security clearance.
