About Trailstone

Trailstone is a global energy and technology company, operating at the intersection of renewable and conventional power. We trade energy in global markets, and we provide a best-in-class service to manage the inherent intermittency of renewable power generation across the short, medium and long term.

As an energy trader, we buy and sell electricity and gas which is physically delivered on the grids, and we leverage our physical market knowledge to trade financial commodities.

As a provider of renewable energy management services, we take on the complexity of managing renewable power across different countries so that our customers can focus on their core mission of investment and growth. Trailstone offers an efficient, fully automated front-to-back renewable power management platform underpinned by our long-standing market experience, proprietary technology, data analytics and meteorology.

 

Role Profile: HR Coordinator, London

Trailstone is seeking a HR Coordinator on a full-time, permanent basis. The successful candidate will work as part of a small, energetic HR team, that is global in nature and strives for ‘best in class’ when it comes to the employee and candidate experience.

This is a truly exciting opportunity for an ambitious, junior HR professional to gain exposure and experience within a rapidly growing business. The successful candidate must be able to confidently and proactively manage all administration processes, with the ability to communicate effectively in order to support the provision of a seamless HR function.

We are happy to facilitate a hybrid working pattern, but some time in the London office each week is required.

• Respond to internal and external HR-related inquiries or requests, providing assistance within appropriate timescales and escalating where required.
• Manage robust onboarding and leaver processes, including undertaking exit interviews for junior employees.
• Communicate proactively with key stakeholders at varying levels of seniority in relation to administration, recruitment, and project work.
• Maintain Applicant Tracking System (Greenhouse), and all other data sources, ensuring that data is accurate for reporting purposes.
• Manage employee administration, including but not limited to employment references, contracts of employment, variation letters, and benefit changes.
• Schedule interviews, manage vacancies, and maintain a seamless candidate experience across recruitment processes.

What do you need?

• Excellent communication skills, with a high degree of accuracy and professionalism in written approach.
• Proven experience in a HR coordination role or similar, within a relevant industry (ideally professional services or fintech).
• Experience working within a fast-paced, multi-office environment.
• Knowledge of human resources processes and best practices.
• HR systems experience.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills are strongly preferred but not essential.
• Experience working in a global business is preferred but not essential.

 

Other Attributes

• Resilient under pressure; able to remain calm and effective when faced with multiple requests or demands at the same time.
• Able to effectively prioritise tasks and consistently deliver high quality work, with the ability to rapidly re-prioritise if needed without losing track of lower priority items.
• A highly analytical, accurate and detail-oriented working style.
• Excellent inter-personal skills and the ability to engage in effective, direct communication across different levels of seniority with colleagues globally.
• Willing to act consistently as a team player; willing to get stuck in to tasks outside of usual remit and help do everything necessary to make the business operate successfully.
• Able to adapt skillset to varying tasks, demonstrate flexibility, and assimilate knowledge quickly.
• Able to handle matters with sensitivity and confidentiality.
• Willing to be flexible with working hours when required, to accommodate multiple time zones.
