Administrator role

Hello all, I was wondering if I could ask for your opinions/advice? I recently completed my CIPD Level 5 Certificate in HRM, and I am keen to start working in the HR profession. I am currently working as a crew manager for an airline. I have been applying for HR roles, and I’ve been invited for an interview at an SME (for a business that operate car rescue/breakdown services) for the role of ‘Administrator’ at their HQ. The job description mentions recruitment admin and arranging interviews, induction, arranging training and holiday planning, and general HR admin as well as clerical work. My questions to the community are: is a job with the title Administrator considered an ‘HR role’ as some of the duties are HR related? And does the position appear to be a good stepping stone into a future career in HR? Would I be able to put on my CV in future that I have ‘HR experience’? I basically want a role that leads to me being able to claim I have HR experience in future so that I can apply for associate level roles. Many thanks, David
