Our vision is ‘Tennis Opened Up’, and our mission is to transform communities through tennis, focusing on three areas – making tennis welcoming, enjoyable and inspiring to everyone.

The People Team ensure we have the right people, in the right roles, with the right skills to deliver the LTA’s vision of ‘Tennis opened up’. The LTA’s mission is to grow tennis by making it welcoming, enjoyable and inspiring to everyone.

As a team, we provide leadership, expert advice and support to the organisation throughout the employment lifecycle, enabling people to perform in their roles.

You’ll also act as a first point of contact for payroll and benefits queries, providing clear and helpful guidance to colleagues across the LTA.

Alongside payroll, you’ll support the administration and continuous improvement of our benefits programmes, helping to ensure a positive and engaging employee experience. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with detail, building relationships, and contributing to an efficient and people-focused department.

You’ll thrive in this role if you’re highly organised, proactive, have the ability to juggle multiple deadlines with a strong understanding of payroll processes and a keen interest in colleague benefits.
