If you’ve answered yes to the above, this could be the right career move for you!

Having the ability to drive to various sites between Salisbury and Swindon and across Wiltshire as we grow will be required. Flexibility in line with work/life balance is something you’ll have as our Resourcing Manager.

You will be experienced in the full recruitment lifecycle at varied levels including casual to leadership. From appointment need, through shortlisting, interview, pre-employment checks and induction and a keen eye for the detail of written documentation.
