About the Role
We're looking for an experienced
Talent Acquisition Specialist to join a growing, construction organisation experiencing a sustained uplift in recruitment
The hiring need is predominantly operational, site-based, and technically aligned, requiring a fast-paced recruitment approach, strong coordination skills, and consistent engagement with hiring managers and stakeholders.
You'll work closely with the Lead Talent Acquisition Specialist, providing additional capacity across candidate screening, interview coordination, recruitment delivery, stakeholder management, and line-manager support.
This is a hands-on, coordination-heavy delivery role — not a strategic one — requiring resilience, pace, and comfort with ambiguity.
- What You'll Be Doing
- Screening candidates across trades, technical roles, site supervisors, project support, and operational hires.
- Managing end-to-end interview scheduling — phone screens, hiring manager interviews, site-based interviews, and follow-ups.
- Maintaining momentum in a reactive hiring environment where requisitions depend on client sign-off and can shift quickly.
- Managing relationships with technically focused, time-poor line managers who may change role parameters or delay feedback.
- Keeping documentation accurate and audit-ready, including briefs, interview notes, and candidate records.
- Delivering a strong candidate experience despite fluctuating timelines and shifting priorities.
- Optional HR crossover — strong performers may pick up basic HR coordination or grow into a hybrid HR/TA role.
What We're Looking For
- A proven track record recruiting within the commercial construction industry.
- Solid understanding of construction business structures and role requirements.
- Strong influencing and negotiation skills.
- Excellent communication skills, with the judgement to know what each situation needs.
- A patient, solutions-focused approach.
- Experience with Job Adder or a similar ATS is highly regarded.
- Availability for an immediate start.
