The role

You will be comfortable and confident in making direct approaches.

You’ll also need to know when you need support and it’s time to reach out and work with one of our agency partners.

You will be providing high-volume, full-cycle recruitment, from job posting, sourcing, screening, scheduling, interviewing, partnering with hiring managers, extending job offers and closing roles.

You will be used to being very self-sufficient as this is a stand-alone role where will design and do, source and report.

The pace within this part of Hiscox is consistently intense and you must be prepared to roll up your sleeves to manage the high volume of roles in a difficult recruitment market.

You’ll help promote best practise ensuring candidate experience is a priority and that recruitment tools and processes across all stages of the recruitment lifecycle (attraction, and selection) are upheld.

You’ll have to work collaboratively across the business, building and maintaining strong working relationships with people at all levels of seniority.

It is a varied role, from directly sourcing candidates to providing bespoke advice on attraction and selection methods.
