Recruitment & Talent Partner
Hybrid - Kendal Leading Technical Engineering Services Organisation
Are you a proactive, self-starting recruiter who thrives on full ownership of the hiring process? This is an exciting opportunity to join a global technical engineering services organisation and lead all internal recruitment activity while supporting the wider Talent & Development function.
The Role
As the Recruitment & Talent Partner, you'll be the driving force behind hiring across the business. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role where you'll manage the full recruitment lifecycle - from initial briefing through to verbal offer - ensuring a smooth, professional and engaging experience for both candidates and hiring managers.
You'll work closely with stakeholders across technical, operational and corporate functions, building strong relationships and delivering a well-structured, consistent recruitment process.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and manage the end-to-end recruitment cycle for all vacancies
- Partner with hiring managers to take detailed briefs and support the approval process
- Advertise roles, source talent, screen CVs and coordinate interviews
- Deliver a seamless candidate experience from first contact to verbal offer
- Build and maintain talent pools and pipelines for future hiring needs
- Keep recruitment systems, data and reporting up to date and accurate
- Manage agency relationships and ensure consistent candidate quality
- Collaborate closely with the Training & Development team to:
- Identify internal training needs
- Coordinate training activities and onboarding
- Ensure inductions, equipment and documentation are in place
- Support the development and review of internal learning pathways
What You'll Bring
- A self-starter mindset with the confidence to take ownership and drive activity forward
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple vacancies at pace
- Confidence working with stakeholders at all levels
- Experience in internal recruitment or agency recruitment with an in-house approach
- A proactive, solutions-focused attitude
- A genuine interest in people development and supporting internal growth
Why This Role Stands Out
- Hybrid working with a supportive team and strong leadership
- Exposure to both Talent Acquisition and Learning & Development
- The chance to make a real impact in a growing, global engineering business
- Competitive salary, generous benefits and bonus potential
