About the role

Help people feel supported from the very start

You notice when someone needs a clear answer.

You value the small details.
The reassuring response.
The organised support that helps colleagues feel in good hands.

At Lincolnshire Co-op, people are at the heart of everything we do-and our People team helps make sure colleagues feel informed, supported and cared for.

We're looking for a People Assistant to join our People team, supporting colleagues and managers with the everyday moments that help work feel simple, organised and positive.

Because when people have the right support, they can do their best work.

INDLP Where care and organisation come together

Every conversation matters.

From answering colleague queries to keeping records up to date, the support behind the scenes helps people feel confident and connected.

Working as part of our People team, you'll help keep things moving-making sure information is accurate, processes run smoothly and colleagues get the help they need.

Because this role isn't only about administration.

It's about supporting people with care, accuracy and understanding.

Where helpfulness meets attention to detail

You'll work with the information, systems and queries that colleagues depend on-making sure every detail is handled carefully and every interaction leaves a positive impression.

One day, you might be responding to colleague questions or updating people records.
The next, supporting absence administration, contract changes or helping the wider team with an important people process.

You'll focus on:

  • Responding to colleague and manager queries in a warm, helpful and professional way
  • Maintaining people records so information is accurate, current and carefully managed
  • Helping with everyday people activity, including absence administration, contract changes and leavers
  • Producing letters, documents and updates that are clear, accurate and well-presented
  • Supporting the People team with tasks that keep processes moving smoothly
  • Developing your understanding of people policies, procedures and ways of working

Because this role isn't just about keeping things organised.

It's about helping people feel supported.

About You The kind of person who'll shine here

You enjoy helping others-but you also understand why accuracy matters.

You're approachable, organised and motivated by making things easier for the people around you.

You'll bring:

  • Experience in an administrative role and confidence working with Microsoft Office
  • The care and attention to spot details and follow information through correctly
  • A positive, approachable manner when supporting colleagues and managers
  • A steady, organised approach with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines
  • Communication skills that help you listen well, share information clearly and keep people updated

Most importantly, you'll understand that people information matters-handling sensitive details carefully, confidentially and professionally.

What makes this role feel rewarding

As well as being part of a team that supports colleagues every day, you'll benefit from:

  • 30 days' annual leave, including bank holidays, pro rata
  • A pension scheme with employer contributions of up to 12%
  • Colleague discounts across our family of businesses
  • Learning and development opportunities to help you build your skills and confidence

As an Investors in People Platinum employer, we're committed to creating an environment where colleagues are supported to learn, develop and feel proud of the work they do.

Does this feel like you?

If you enjoy supporting people, keeping things organised and making everyday processes feel easier, this could be the role for you.

Join us-and help make every colleague experience a little smoother, clearer and more supported.
