About the role  

We have a 6-month secondment opportunity within the People Team to support the Group Fleet Manager in the Fleet Services function. This role has become available due to the internal development of a current team member and offers a fantastic chance for someone with strong administration skills, solid business understanding, and a curiosity to learn more about a critical operational area. You'll be part of a fast-paced, detail-driven team, gaining hands-on experience in supporting the effective management of our company fleet. 

This secondment is well suited to someone who can work autonomously, manage multiple priorities, and maintain high attention to detail under pressure. You'll be exposed to a wide range of tasks that are central to keeping our fleet operations running smoothly. If you're looking to build your knowledge, stretch your skills, and work alongside a collaborative team, we encourage you to get in touch / apply!

• Manage license checks and keep records updated within our systems. 

• Collaborate with HR Shared Services on starters, leavers, and role changes affecting fleet.  

• Process and track fleet-related invoices efficiently. 

About you
