In-House Recruiter - Part-Time (20 hours per week)

Visual Architects is an award-winning creative company specialising in immersive scenography and event design. From massive festival stages to high-end brand activations, we create worlds that people never forget.

As we continue to scale, we need a talent specialist who understands that 'creative' isn't just a buzzword - it's our DNA. We are looking for a Part-Time In-House Recruiter (20 hours per week) to help us find the builders, designers, and visionaries who will shape the future of our projects.

THE ROLE

This isn't a high-volume "CV-shuffling" role. You will be responsible for sourcing high-caliber talent across production, design, and sales. We need someone who can go beyond a LinkedIn profile to find people with the right "eye" and industry grit.

• Reporting to: HR Manager
• Location: Denton, Manchester (Based at our HQ)
• Hours: 20 hours per week (Flexible schedule available)
• Remuneration: Competitive Pro-Rata Salary

EXPERIENCE & REQUIREMENTS

• Industry Background: Ideally, you come from a recruitment background specifically within events, brand activations, festivals, or the experiential sector. You understand the unique pace and personality of this industry.
• The 'Hunter' Mentality: You don't just wait for applications. You are proactive in headhunting passive talent and building a bench of freelancers and permanent staff.
• Cultural Alignment: You have an eye for creative talent. You can look at a portfolio or a track record and know instantly if they fit the Visual Architects aesthetic.
• Relationship Driven: You are a natural communicator who can sell the dream of working for a world-class creative studio.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• End-to-End Talent Acquisition: Manage the full recruitment lifecycle, from drafting job descriptions to initial screening calls and coordinating final interviews.
• Niche Sourcing: Use LinkedIn Recruiter, social media, and industry networks to find specialised roles (e.g., 3D Designers, Production Managers, Scenic Carpenters).
• Candidate Experience: Ensure every applicant, whether successful or not, has a professional and inspiring interaction with our brand.
• Pipeline Building: Maintain a database of 'ready-to-go' freelancers for seasonal peaks in the festival and event calendar.
• Onboarding Support: Work with department heads to ensure new hires are integrated seamlessly into the team.

HOW TO APPLY

If you know the difference between a standard event and a true brand activation, and you have the recruitment skills to find the best in the business, we want to hear from you.
