Who are we
Join the Team That Drives London's Future Workforce
At Go-Ahead London, recruiting and developing great people is vital to keeping London moving. We're looking for a proactive and creative Recruitment & Training Academy Administrator who enjoys combining technology, communication, marketing, and administration to help attract, engage, and onboard the next generation of bus drivers and transport professionals.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys variety. One day you could be creating engaging recruitment content for social media and careers websites, the next you could be managing recruitment systems, coordinating campaigns, analysing recruitment data, or working with managers across the business to improve candidate attraction.
If you're organised, digitally confident, people-focused, and enjoy making things happen behind the scenes, we'd love to hear from you.
Salary £35000

Recruitment Marketing & Candidate Attraction
- Help promote Go-Ahead London as an employer of choice through engaging recruitment campaigns.
- Create and update content for recruitment websites, social media channels, and job boards.
- Support employer branding initiatives and promote careers across the business.
- Work with operational teams to identify recruitment needs and develop attraction strategies.
- Monitor campaign performance and provide recommendations to improve applicant engagement and conversion rates.
- Support recruitment events, open days, careers fairs, and community engagement activities.
Recruitment Systems & Administration
- Become a key administrator of our recruitment systems, ensuring candidate records, workflows, and communications are maintained accurately.
- Coordinate recruitment campaigns from vacancy advertising through to onboarding.
- Manage interview scheduling, candidate communications, and recruitment documentation.
- Ensure compliance with Right to Work legislation, GDPR requirements, and company procedures.
- Produce recruitment reports and analyse data to identify trends, opportunities, and areas for improvement.
- Liaise with managers and departments across the business to gather information and ensure recruitment processes run smoothly.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
