At The Hoxton, Lloyd, our people are at the heart of what we do. As a People & Culture Intern, you’ll work closely with our People & Culture Manager, supporting the day-to-day people operations and helping create a great experience for our team, from their first day to their last.

Comfortable using Microsoft Office, especially Outlook and Excel, and quick to pick up new systems. Well organised, proactive and able to keep a few plates spinning at once. Interested in recruitment, employee experience and what makes a team thrive. Discreet and trustworthy when handling confidential employee information. A natural people person who communicates easily, enjoys helping others and knows how to make people feel welcome. Individuals. Be yourself – no clones in suits here. A team player who leaves their ego at the door, rolls up their sleeves and gets things done. Additional Information What's In It For You… €750 gross per month, based on a full-time internship. Food on us during your shift. Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us. Training and development opportunities to help you grow throughout your internship.
