About You:

We’re looking for someone who thrives in a busy environment and brings a positive, can-do attitude. While recruitment experience is a plus, what really matters is your ability to deliver excellent customer service, juggle multiple tasks, and stay organised under pressure.

• A firm understanding of confidentiality
• Excellent communication skills – both written and verbal
• Confidence using ICT systems including Word, Excel, and Outlook
• Great time management and the ability to prioritise
• Experience taking ownership of tasks and delivering results
• The ability to travel to recruitment events as needed

It would be great if you also have:

• Experience in HR, recruitment, or a shared service function
• Knowledge of the police service
• CIPD Level 3 or equivalent experience

In addition to the essential and desirable criteria, experience of using an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) would be advantageous.

If you’re passionate about people, love variety in your work, and want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
