- Organisational and Administrative Skills: You must be well-organised and detail-oriented to manage multiple tasks simultaneously, maintain accurate records, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
- Adaptability: Given the dynamic nature of HR and organisational needs, HR Advisors should be adaptable and able to respond effectively to changes, whether they are related to policies, procedures, or workforce dynamics.
- Confidentiality: You will often deal with sensitive information, so maintaining confidentiality and discretion is critical.
- Analytical Skills: The ability to gather, analyse, and interpret data related to HR metrics, employee feedback, and performance evaluations is important for making informed decisions and improving HR processes over time.

Technology Proficiency: Familiarity with HR software and systems for managing employee records is desirable.

Be mindful and considerate of the pressures and deadlines we all face, offering support and checking in with each other. Have the belief that you can succeed by being solutions-focused and persevere even when things get tough. Look forward, embrace feedback, act with honesty and integrity in everything you do and have fun
