Job Description & How to Apply Below

Position: Talent Acquisition Coordinator (Maternity Cover)
As our Talent Acquisition Coordinator, you’ll:
  • Coordinate recruitment for permanent and contract vacancies.
  • Manage recruitment activity through our ATS.
  • Deliver a positive and professional candidate experience.
  • Arrange interviews and manage candidate communications.
  • Review and screen applications against role requirements.
  • Advertise vacancies across relevant recruitment channels.
  • Support hiring managers throughout the recruitment process.
  • Coordinate Early Careers recruitment activity.
  • Liaise with HR on recruitment and onboarding updates.
About You

You’ll be someone who enjoys bringing organisation to a busy recruitment environment and who understands how much difference good communication can make to a candidate’s experience. You’ll be comfortable speaking with people at all levels, from candidates making their first enquiry through to hiring managers and senior stakeholders. You’ll also be able to balance competing priorities without losing sight of the detail.

You don’t necessarily need to have done exactly the same role before, but you’ll need a good understanding of recruitment processes, processing candidates through an ATS and the confidence to quickly become a trusted point of contact for candidates and hiring teams.

You will be available to join by the 16th November 2026.

Essential:
  • Experience working in a fast-paced environment (preferably professional services), managing high volumes of information accurately and efficiently.
  • A good understanding of recruitment processes and the end-to-end candidate journey.
  • Experience managing candidates through an Applicant Tracking System (ATS); experience with Greenhouse would be an advantage, but isn’t essential.
  • A proactive approach, with the confidence to use your initiative and work independently.
  • A genuine commitment to delivering an excellent candidate experience and representing the business positively at every stage of the recruitment journey.
