This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys talking to people, building relationships and finding the right person for the right opportunity. You will play a key role in supporting our recruitment consultants and ensuring candidates receive a professional, engaging and positive experience throughout the recruitment process.

If you are naturally curious, enjoy speaking to people, and like the idea of working in a fast-paced, target-driven environment, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

No two days will be the same. Working closely with our experienced Recruitment Consultants, you will be responsible for identifying, engaging and qualifying candidates for a wide variety of vacancies across multiple sectors, including:

• Engineering, Finance, Manufacturing & Production, Office & Administration, Sales

Your responsibilities will include

• Searching a variety of online job boards to identify suitable candidates for live vacancies.
• Using LinkedIn, social media and our in-house candidate database to source and engage potential candidates.
• Proactively contacting candidates by telephone, email, LinkedIn and social media.
• Building strong relationships with candidates and developing a good understanding of their skills, experience, career aspirations and availability.
• Conducting initial telephone screening and pre-qualification conversations.
• Reviewing CVs against job descriptions and identifying candidates who match the required skills and experience.

You will ideally have

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• A confident and engaging telephone manner.
• The ability to build rapport quickly with a wide range of people.
• Strong attention to detail, particularly when reviewing CVs and candidate information.

You'll work alongside experienced Consultants, learning how to identify great candidates, understand client requirements and ultimately help people secure their next career opportunity.

For the right person, there is also the opportunity to develop your career within recruitment, progressing your skills and taking on greater responsibility as you gain experience.
