• Promote and protect our employer brand through excellent candidate experience
• Drive recruitment delivery
• Stay on top of talent trends and bring insights to the team to continuously improve our approach

Key Skills/Experience:

• Proven experience in a fast-paced recruitment role, either within an agency or in house capacity
• Track record of managing, multi-disciplinary roles end to end
• Confident stakeholder manager
• Expert in sourcing, with a knack for finding the best talent
• Passionate about candidate experience
• Results oriented and highly organised, with a focus on delivery
• Familiarity with Applicant Tracking Systems
• Comfortable working in environments with change, ambiguity, and evolving priorities.

Why join Blink Payment?

• Come on board a fast growing privately owned business

• 26 Days Annual Leave + Bank Holidays

• An additional day of annual leave for your Birthday

• Early finish on a Friday at 3:30PM
