Love recruitment, organisation and making sure everything just works?

We're looking for a Recruitment Coordinator to join the HR team on a 12-month fixed term contract, supporting the recruitment and onboarding journey from the moment a vacancy is approved right through to a new employee's first day.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, HR administration or a coordination role who enjoys being the person behind the scenes making sure candidates, hiring managers and new starters have a smooth and professional experience.

You’ll be juggling vacancies, candidates, interviews, paperwork, pre-employment checks, onboarding and plenty of moving parts - so organisation is definitely your friend!

• Coordinating the recruitment process from vacancy approval through to appointment.
• Preparing and advertising vacancies across agreed recruitment channels.
• Managing candidate applications and keeping recruitment records accurate and up to date.
• Liaising with hiring managers around shortlisting, interviews and candidate feedback.
• Coordinating interviews and assessments, including diaries, venues and online meetings.
• Keeping candidates informed throughout the recruitment process and responding to queries promptly and professionally.
• Preparing offer letters, contracts and other recruitment documentation.
• Coordinating pre-employment checks including right to work and references.
• Managing new starter paperwork and ensuring all required information is received and recorded.
• Working with hiring managers to make sure new starters have everything they need for a successful start.
• Organising new starter inductions and onboarding arrangements.
• Coordinating equipment and other requirements, including laptops, iPads, cameras, access cards and more.
• Working with IT, operations and other teams to make sure everything is ready before a new employee walks through the door.
• Maintaining accurate recruitment and onboarding information across HR and recruitment systems.
• Keeping an eye on deadlines and proactively chasing outstanding actions - because nothing should be left sitting in someone's inbox gathering dust!
• Producing routine recruitment reports and information as required.
• Keeping recruitment templates, forms and candidate communications accurate and consistent.
• Supporting the wider HR team with recruitment projects and process improvements.
• Looking for ways to make recruitment and onboarding more efficient and, importantly, improve the candidate experience.
