Internal Recruiter

We're looking for an Internal Recruiter who lives and breathes people. The Internal Recruiter will own the full recruitment journey - from attracting standout talent to getting them settled in and set up for success. Finding candidates who genuinely fit our culture isn't just a checkbox, it's the part that needs the most care. Beyond hiring, this role will be right in the mix with the People team on projects that shape how we work - bringing energy, adaptability and a real passion for people and culture to everything you do.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Partner with hiring managers across technical and non-technical teams to define role requirements and ensure alignment with both business needs and team culture - including role benchmarking where needed
  • Review and refine job descriptions to ensure they're accurate, inclusive, and appeal to a broad and diverse talent pool
  • Advertise vacancies across job boards, social media, and internal platforms, and represent us at recruitment events and job fairs
  • Manage all recruitment activity in Talos (our ATS), from vacancy approval right through to onboarding, keeping everything smooth and trackable
  • Lead pre-screening, interviews, offers, and onboarding, delivering a consistent and engaging experience at every stage
  • Manage new starter onboarding, ensuring a seamless transition into the business with clear communication, the right setup, and early-stage support
  • Provide excellent communication and service to hiring managers, candidates, and internal teams throughout
  • Handle uniform orders for new and existing employees and oversee company merchandise stock
  • Support the People team with day-to-day tasks, internal events, and shared responsibility for answering incoming calls
  • Proactively contribute to wider people initiatives including staff development, training frameworks, internal recognition, and communications
  • Champion our culture, vision, and values in everything you do
  • 37.5 per week, 8:30 – 17:00 Monday to Friday

What We're Looking For:

  • Minimum 3 years' experience as an agency or internal recruiter
  • Genuinely people-focused with a warm, approachable style and a strong commitment to candidate care
  • A brilliant communicator - confident, clear, and engaging both written and verbally, with a sharp eye for inclusive, accessible language to attract diverse talent
  • Highly organised, detail-driven, and able to juggle multiple priorities without dropping the ball
  • Resilient and adaptable - you thrive under pressure and in fast-paced environments without compromising on standards
  • Commercially aware, with a solid understanding of recruitment metrics and what good performance looks like
  • Clued up on social media, employer branding, and how to position a business to attract the right people
  • Confident across a range of IT platforms including ATS systems, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a wider team
  • Proactive, positive, and someone who genuinely adds to team culture — not just ticks boxes

Why Join Us?

  • Discounted fuel and staff discount on parts from day one!
  • Health & wellbeing perks (after probation):
    • Health Cash Plan with Health Shield
    • Critical Illness Cover
    • Death in Service Benefit
