We are currently looking for a part-time Recruitment Officer to join our team. Our Recruitment and Resourcing team are responsible for managing the end-to-end recruitment process for all academic and professional services roles across the University.
Daily, you’ll manage your own portfolio being responsible for the end-to-end recruitment process – from advertising to onboarding successful candidates.
You’ll provide recruitment and resourcing advice to your hiring managers including where and how to advertise creatively, and support on immigration activities in relation to the new starter process; including right to work checks and Certificates of Sponsorships.
You’ll need to be comfortable talking to and advising colleagues at all levels of the university. Have a can-do attitude and thrive on providing excellent customer service to our candidates and key stakeholders.
You will be the first point of contact in the team for your designated portfolio customers and will work alongside a team of fellow Officers. You will be supported by a Senior Recruitment Officer and a Senior Immigration Officer, as well as a Team Leader.
You will need to have administration experience and ideally, this would be in a recruitment and resourcing environment, but this is not essential. Your previous administration experience should include prioritising and processing high numbers of tasks with a high level of accuracy and in a timely manner, as well as experience of IT systems including Microsoft applications.
If you feel you have the necessary experience and skills and would like to be part of our welcoming team, we would love to hear from you!
We welcome applications from all walks of life, and we are really committed to diversity and inclusion in the way we manage recruitment and how we work with our colleagues at Loughborough University. We’ll expect you to be committed too.
In return, we can offer you a supportive and friendly environment with lots of opportunity to learn and develop your personal and professional skills. Our benefits include:
