Recruitment is tough right now and due to the current challenges across the external employment market we are looking for a specialist Recruitment Advisor to join our team. You will support our hiring managers to recruit people with the right skills, knowledge and experience to ensure we are able to successful deliver the Council priorities.

- It will be critical for you to understand the recruitment requirements of each team you are working with, including awareness of vacancies to enable you to fill roles as quickly and efficiently as possible, minimising agency spend where agency staff are being utilised.
- You will be part of the team that reviews and approves vacancy requests, assessing the complexity of the role and allocating it to an appropriate team member.
- You will also use your knowledge and insight to provide day to day advice and guidance to other members of the recruitment team and to hiring managers on employment and recruitment issues
