Recruitment - Empowering Talent

Are you creative, organised, and passionate about delivering excellent customer service? Join our Wilts Promoting Partners team as a Traded Service Assistant and help us deliver high quality recruitment and DBS services to schools, charities, and local businesses across Wiltshire.

In this fast paced, and rewarding role, you'll support the delivery of Wiltshire Council's external recruitment and DBS services. You'll be responsible for delivering a range of services including promoting job opportunities, creating engaging social media content, managing advertising campaigns, and ensuring the accurate processing of DBS checks.

You'll also play a key role in supporting recruitment for senior roles, such as Head Teachers, and maintaining strong relationships with our traded service customers.

You'll work closely with the Traded Service Coordinator and wider team to ensure our services are professional, reliable, and tailored to customer needs. From designing social media reels and posts to email campaigns and attending career events to managing invoicing, no two days will be the same.

The successful candidate will feel relaxed and confident to take part in reels (videos) for our social media content and phoning potential new customers to promote our services.

What we're looking for:
  • A good standard of education (A Levels/National Diploma or equivalent experience)
  • Strong digital and social media skills, with a creative flair for content creation
  • Excellent communication and the ability to confidently multi task
  • Knowledge of DBS processes and safeguarding requirements (or willingness to learn)
  • Confident in using Microsoft Office applications
  • A proactive, customer focused approach with great attention to detail.
  • Although not essential, it would be considered an advantage to have a qualification in Digital Marketing and/or Business studies.

If you're ready to make a difference and help shape the future of recruitment services in Wiltshire, we'd love to hear from you.

The successful candidate will be required to undergo a DBS check to become a countersignatory for Wiltshire Council. This is non negotiable.

Wiltshire Council is a friendly, welcoming place to work, with a 'One Council' ethos. That's why we focus on getting the things that matter to our people right.
