Ingeus Employer Engagement Consultant

Regional Office Worker - Site & Community based (Covering Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire)

Salary: Starting from £36,000 per annum + Package

About the Role

Can you open doors with employers and turn good conversations into meaningful job opportunities for young people?

We are looking for a commercially minded individual to build strong employer relationships to create a pipeline of high-quality, accessible roles for the Youth Jobs Guarantee.

This is a pacey, target-driven role for someone who enjoys business development, relationship management and turning employer interest into successful job starts.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Create meaningful, suitable roles that meet employer needs and give young people a positive experience of work.
  • Use a consultative approach, understanding workforce challenges and presenting practical recruitment solutions.
  • Promote inclusive recruitment, helping employers remove barriers and consider accessible, flexible approaches.
  • Support matching and onboarding, working with colleagues to connect young people to the right roles.
  • Represent Ingeus externally at employer forums, networking events and sector groups.
  • Deliver against targets, maintaining accurate CRM records, forecasting opportunities and tracking conversion.
  • Maintain quality and compliance, ensuring employer activity meets safeguarding, equality, data protection and contractual requirements.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

About You

You will be a confident relationship builder who enjoys opening doors, asking good questions and turning conversations into action. You may come from employer engagement, recruitment, business development, account management, sales or another target-driven environment where success depends on influence, pace and follow-through.

You will bring commercial confidence without losing sight of quality. Securing vacancies matters, but the right vacancies matter more, so you will balance employer needs with the strengths, ambitions and circumstances of young people.

You will be comfortable working to targets, managing a pipeline, prioritising the right conversations and adapting your approach when activity is not converting.

Strong communication skills are essential. You will engage employers at different levels, explain the programme clearly and challenge constructively where an opportunity does not meet the right standard.

This is not a youth-work role, but you will meet participants through matching, recruitment and onboarding, so empathy, respect and belief in young people’s potential are important.
