- Field-Based, Northern England

Up to £30,000 per annum + travel allowances | 6-month contract (potential to extend) | Full-time

Not your average recruitment job.

We're not looking for someone to sit behind an ATS and screen CVs. We're looking for someone who can land in a town where Routes Healthcare has never operated, work out who's hiring, what they're paying, and where the candidates are - and then build a recruitment pipeline from nothing.

Routes Healthcare is a CQC-registered homecare and complex care provider growing across Northern England. Every time we win a contract in a new area, someone has to get boots on the ground and make recruitment happen before the service goes live. That's this role.

• Visiting new service areas to understand the local market first-hand - who the competitors are, what they pay, and where care workers actually look for jobs
• Building geography-specific recruitment strategies for hard-to-fill areas, from advertising channels down to community noticeboards
• Getting out and building relationships
  - Jobcentre Plus, colleges, training providers, community groups
• Running attraction campaigns and building candidate pipelines, then handing applicants to our central team for screening and compliance
• Reporting your market intelligence and pipeline progress straight to the Head of Recruitment

• 2+ years' recruitment experience in a similar role - care sector or another hard-to-fill, high-volume field
• A genuine self-starter who can mobilise a recruitment campaign from scratch, without waiting to be told what to do
• Full UK driving licence and access to your own car - this is a field-based role and you'll be travelling regularly
• To live within commutable distance of Rochdale - our head office is here and you'll be working from it at times
• Confidence talking to anyone, from a Jobcentre work coach to a college principal

This is a brand-new role on an initial 6-month contract. If it works - and we think it will - there's real potential for it to become something longer-term. You'll be shaping the role as you go, reporting directly to the Head of Recruitment, with the freedom to run your patch your way.
