Internship: People & Culture - The Hoxton, Lloyd

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Since opening our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve always been about more than just offering a bed for the night. We create spaces where guests and locals come together, with great design, vibrant public spaces and a genuine connection to the neighbourhood.

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.

We’re looking for someone to join us for 5–6 months, ideally starting in January 2027. Have a different start date in mind? We’re happy to discuss it.

What you'll do…

• Support recruitment from start to finish, including CV screening, initial candidate calls and interview planning.
• Post vacancies on our careers page and relevant recruitment platforms to help us find the right people.
• Help welcome new team members by coordinating onboarding, organising coffee chats and making sure they feel at home from day one.
• Keep employee records and HR systems up to date, including setting up accounts and supporting administrative processes.
• Track training completion and assist with organising training sessions and development activities.
• Help bring our team together by organising team events, celebrations and engagement initiatives.

• Assist with everyday P&C administration, from scanning and filing documents to ordering business cards and preparing paperwork.
• Handle employee information with care and confidentiality.
• Be a go-to person for the team, helping colleagues with questions and making sure things run smoothly behind the scenes.

What we're looking for…

• Currently studying for a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Hospitality Management, Human Resources or a related field.
• Available for a 5–6 month internship, ideally starting in January 2027.
• Fluent in English, both written and spoken. Dutch is a strong plus.
• 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.

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.

• A chance to get involved in our diversity and inclusion initiatives and help make The Hoxton a welcoming place for everyone.
• Regular team get-togethers, celebrations and parties – we work hard, but we make time to have fun, too.
• The opportunity to take ownership, share ideas and make a real contribution to the employee experience.
• Join a creative, international and fast-growing hospitality group that isn't afraid to challenge the norm.
