About the Role

Our client, a leading provider of housing solutions, is looking for an experienced Recruitment Adviser to join its HR Careers Team on a six-month contract.

You'll manage recruitment activity from vacancy approval through to onboarding, working closely with hiring managers to attract and select the right talent. A key focus will be designing and delivering online recruitment assessment centres, so we're looking for someone who can take ownership and make an immediate impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage vacancies from advertising and sourcing through shortlisting, interviews, offers and onboarding handover.
• Work closely with hiring managers to support recruitment planning, candidate attraction and selection.
• Source candidates through job boards, direct sourcing, talent pools, referrals and approved agencies.
• Design, develop and deliver online recruitment assessment centres for designated roles and high-volume campaigns, ensuring assessments are structured, fair, consistent and aligned with role requirements.
• Maintain effective communication with candidates and hiring managers throughout the recruitment process.
• Monitor recruitment data, maintain accurate records and identify opportunities to improve recruitment effectiveness.
• Ensure recruitment activity follows relevant data protection, right-to-work, safeguarding and pre-employment procedures.
• Share recruitment knowledge and support consistent practices across the team.

About You

You'll have proven recruitment experience, either in-house or within an agency, and be confident managing vacancies independently in a fast-paced environment.

You'll also have:

• Hands-on experience designing, developing and delivering online recruitment assessment centres, ideally for high-volume campaigns, with the ability to assess candidates fairly and consistently.
• Strong sourcing, screening, interviewing and candidate-assessment skills.
• Experience working with hiring managers and building effective working relationships.
• Excellent organisation, communication and time-management skills.
• Knowledge of inclusive recruitment, confidentiality and data protection.
• Confidence using recruitment systems, job boards and recruitment data.
• A relevant recruitment, HR or resourcing qualification, or equivalent practical experience.
• A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle are essential for occasional travel to the required sites.
• Experience in multi-site recruitment, direct sourcing or recruitment process improvement would be advantageous.

Candidates must have the right to work in the UK and meet the relevant vetting requirements.

The successful candidate will be required to undergo a satisfactory Standard DBS check.

Benefits

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
• Health membership and life cover.
• 4% employer and 4% employee pension contributions.
• Laptop, phone and other equipment provided as required.
• Employee Assistance Programme.
