Join us in making a positive impact on the environment and our communities, while being valued and supported in a truly inclusive workplace.

Are you passionate about recruitment and ready to grow your career in a supportive, high‑performing team? Do you enjoy connecting great people with exciting opportunities?

• Partnering with Resourcing Business Partners and hiring managers to understand resource requirements for the business area you will be supporting.
• Proactively sourcing, engaging, and building relationships with high‑potential candidates using a variety of channels (job boards, Linked In, networking, internal talent pools).
• Delivering an exceptional candidate and hiring manager experience, ensuring communications are clear and there is a seamless flow throughout the recruitment journey.
• Maintaining accurate records and contributing to recruitment analytics and reporting.
• Supporting our end‑to‑end recruitment process from writing job adverts, to scheduling interviews and delivering constructive feedback to unsuccessful candidates.

You’ll be based at our Coventry head office alongside our recruitment and onboarding team. In this role, we’re looking for someone who can join us up to 37 hours a week (we’re open to part time working!)

You’ll join a caring culture that collaborates to achieve, grow, and develop. Our employee engagement scores are among the highest globally in energy and utilities. That’s why, we value in‑person moments to keep our culture alive but also understand the flexibility working from home can bring. So, you'll usually find us in the office, but working from home is supported, one day a week.

• Experience as a recruiter.
• If you’ve recruited operational roles (technicians, electricians, drivers etc), or high‑volume campaigns, that would be a bonus.
• A passion for providing an amazing experience for candidates and hiring managers.
• A confident communicator, able to influence and collaborate with stakeholders and not afraid to push back and manage expectations.
• Organised, detail‑oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment.
• Experience using recruitment technology, candidate management systems or HR systems is desirable.

This role is ideal for someone looking to further develop their career in recruitment and an organisation where you can make a real difference. Skills and experience are important, but character, positivity, and a caring attitude matter too. We welcome and celebrate diverse individuals, knowing they help us better serve our communities. We seek people who get involved, want to be part of something bigger, and make a difference because they care.

• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (and the ability to buy/sell up to 5 days per year)
• Annual bonus scheme (of up to £1,500, which is subject to eligibility)
• Leading pension scheme – we will double your contribution (up to 15% when you contribute 7.5%)

• Dedicated training and development with our ‘Academy’
• Electric vehicle scheme and retail offers
• Family friendly policies (including, a year off fully paid maternity and adoption leave)
