We have an exciting opportunity for a Recruitment Administrator to join our team to cover a period of maternity leave until July 31st 2025
The Recruitment Administrator works closely with the wider recruitment team to support all recruitment activities, ensuring that the candidate experience is as good as it can be and that Hiring Managers are supported effectively. As Recruitment Administrator, you will primarily be involved with the administration involved with recruitment, such as posting job adverts, editing job descriptions and brochures, scheduling interviews, as well as engaging with candidates and undertaking safeguarding interviews. You will also work closely with the wider HR team to ensure that all pre-employment checks are completed and appropriate paperwork is generated.
As this role is integral in meeting the needs of our College community, it will be office-based 5 days a week.
Due to the needs of the school and the department, we may interview suitable candidates before the closing date. This job may also close early if a large number of applications are received. You are advised to submit your application as early as possible to avoid missing your chance to apply.
Main Responsibilities:
Ideal Candidate: To be successful in this role you will need:
- Previous experience working in a busy administrative position and juggling competing priorities;
- Good working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Outlook and Excel;
- Excellent communication skills – both written and verbal;
- An interest in the use of technology in recruitment (LinkedIn, Applicant Tracking Systems etc.) is essential;
- Experience of working with an Applicant Tracking System is desirable;
- Familiarity with editing software, in particular, InDesign, would be useful
- Previous experience of working in a recruitment or HR team would be highly advantageous.
You may enjoy this role if:
- You have a ‘can-do’ attitude – you love getting stuck in and you’re not fazed by a heavy volume of work and fast changing priorities;
- You’re a great communicator – you enjoy engaging with a variety of different people, you’ll always try to meet face to face or pick up the phone rather than email if you can;
- You’re flexible and have a keen eye for detail – you’ll have to juggle lots of competing tasks so you’ll enjoy having lots of different things on the go, and you’re able to organise your time and to prioritise your to- do list so nothing slips through the cracks;
- You like building relationships – you’re able to develop strong, credible relationships both within the HR team and the wider school;
- You continually look for ways to improve systems and processes – we’re keen to evolve and keep improving what we do, so you’ll continually question the status quo and actively search for ways we can be more efficient and effective;
- You enjoy working in a team – we’re a small team and we enjoy spending time together. We support each other as much as we can meaning we get involved in lots of different tasks, you’ll be keen to operate in the same way we do, and you’ll volunteer to get involved in areas that are outside of your normal recruitment remit.
Potential Career Progression
For those looking for an administrative career there is scope to move into administrative and secretarial roles within other school departments. There is also the opportunity to develop your HR career and to move sideways into an HR Administrator role or upwards into a Recruitment Officer or HR Officer position with sufficient time and relevant experience
