This is a full-time, permanent role based in our Dartford HQ (DA26SN)

Working as part of a collaborative and high-performing Talent Acquisition team, you will help ensure that candidates have a great experience, and that recruitment runs smoothly behind the scenes.

If you are enthusiastic, well‑organised, and ready to make an impact, we would love to hear from you.

• Supporting the posting of job adverts and helping ensure content aligns with brand and tone guidelines.
• Assisting with recruitment reporting and tracking to help inform decision‑making.
• Working closely with Talent Acquisition Advisors and stakeholders across the business to provide a smooth and responsive service.

What skills & experience are we looking for?

We are looking for an organised and detail‑focused administrator with a collaborative, can‑do approach.

• Previous administrative or HR support experience (recruitment experience desirable but not essential).
• Strong time management and coordination skills, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• A proactive, customer‑focused mindset.
• Confidence working with digital systems and a willingness to learn new tools (experience with an ATS is a plus).
• High levels of accuracy, professionalism, and discretion.

If you enjoy supporting others, working in a busy team, and want to grow your experience in recruitment, this role could be the perfect fit.
