Recruitment lead

Overview Are you the person who can spot a brilliant carer before they even know it themselves? Looking for a role where your energy and ideas actually shape the business? Join a team that truly cares. At Visiting Angels, we believe great care starts with great people - and that's where you come in. We're looking for an energetic, outgoing and people-focused Recruitment Lead to head up the search for compassionate carers and guide them seamlessly from application to their very first shift - and beyond. This is a brilliant opportunity for a self-starter who loves connecting with people, can manage their own schedule and workload, and wants to make a real difference in the health and social care sector. Responsibilities

• Owning the full recruitment cycle - from job posting and sourcing to interviewing and onboarding
• Writing engaging job adverts, social media posts and candidate communications
• Helping build our social media presence to attract high-quality candidates
• Bringing fresh, innovative ideas to how we attract - and keep - great carers
• Helping new carers settle in so they stay and thrive
• Representing Visiting Angels at recruitment fairs and community events (some weekend flexibility required)
• Creating a warm, professional candidate experience that reflects our Carer-Centric values
• Ensuring all compliance, DBS checks and onboarding processes (including Birdie software) are completed accurately and on time
• Working closely with our friendly office team for smooth handovers
• Sharing on-call responsibilities with the wider team which will require delivering care to clients on occasion
• Tracking recruitment metrics and reporting on progress to senior leadership.
Qualifications
• Experience in care, recruitment or another people-focused role
• Energy, self-motivation and the ability to manage your own time and priorities
• A genuinely caring, engaging nature that people warm to
• Excellent written communication - you'll write adverts, posts and emails every day
• Confidence speaking to groups and promoting Visiting Angels at job fairs, community events and presentations
• Confidence using social media for recruitment and employer branding
• A friendly, approachable and professional manner
• Full UK driving licence with access to your own vehicle (business class 1 insurance required)
• Flexibility to support occasional evening/weekend recruitment events and shared on-call
• Marketing experience is desirable but not essential
You'll be part of a supportive, mission-driven team helping to grow a care service that puts people first - both our clients and our carers.
