Are You Driven by the Challenge of Matching Candidates to the Right Role?

If you thrive on working with candidates, love building relationships, and enjoy the satisfaction of connecting people with the right opportunities — this role is for you!

ATA Recruitment is offering an exciting opportunity for an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join our successful Maintenance Engineering team in Leicester. This is a candidate-focused role where your expertise in sourcing, engaging, and managing talent will be at the heart of your success.

You’ll be supporting a high-performing Business Development Manager who has built an impressive network of clients. Your focus will be on delivering high-quality candidates to key clients, managing the full recruitment lifecycle, and becoming a trusted advisor to both candidates and clients.

If you love the candidate side of recruitment — interviewing, relationship-building, and guiding candidates through the hiring process — this is the perfect opportunity to specialise in a rewarding and fast-paced sector.

The Role:

As a Recruitment Consultant at ATA, you’ll play a key role in connecting top talent with leading businesses in the Maintenance Engineering sector. You’ll be working on live roles and building long-term relationships with candidates to ensure they find the right career opportunities.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Candidate Sourcing & Engagement

  • Proactively source candidates through job boards, Linked In, networking, and referrals.
  • Conduct in-depth candidate interviews to assess experience, skills, and career goals.
  • Provide guidance and support to candidates throughout the recruitment process.
  • Maintain a strong pipeline of talent within the Maintenance Engineering sector.

    • Candidate Management

  • Act as a trusted advisor to candidates, helping them make informed career decisions.
  • Manage the full candidate process — from initial contact to successful placement.
  • Deliver a high-quality candidate experience, ensuring clear communication and timely feedback.

    • Lead Generation & Market Insight

  • Identify new business opportunities through candidate conversations and market research.
  • Keep up to date with industry trends and provide market intelligence to both candidates and clients.
  • Work closely with the Business Development Manager to support account development and successful growth.

    • Client Interaction

  • Accompany the Business Development Manager on client visits and account reviews.
  • Understand client needs and ensure candidates are matched effectively.

    • Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Candidate-Centric Focus – Your success will come from your ability to build relationships with candidates and help them secure the right opportunities.
  • Established Desk – You’ll benefit from existing PSL agreements and live vacancies — no need for cold calling or new business development.
  • Strategic Influence – While your focus is on candidates, you’ll also have the opportunity to shape client strategy and improve hiring processes, through your valuable feedback.
  • Supportive Environment – You’ll work closely with a successful Business Development Manager, giving you access to their expertise and network.
  • Long-Term Impact – Your work will directly affect people’s careers and help businesses secure top talent.

    • What We’re Looking For:

  • Experience:

    Minimum of 12 months’ experience in a 360 recruitment role (any sector).
  • Candidate-Focused: A natural people person who enjoys working with candidates and helping them find the right fit.
  • Communication

    Skills:

    Excellent verbal and written English, with the ability to build trust and rapport quickly.
  • Organisation & Attention to Detail:
    Able to manage multiple roles and candidates at once without compromising on quality.
  • Market Knowledge:
    Experience in Maintenance Engineering is a plus but not essential — full training will be provided.
  • Motivated & Professional:
    Confident in working with candidates at all levels and providing a high-quality service.
