Talent Acquisition Consultant

Initial 6-Month Fixed-Term Contract

Location: Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester, with regular time spent on client site

Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 + Pension

About Hoffmann Reed

Hoffmann Reed is an international Human Capital Advisory firm helping organisations secure exceptional leadership talent and build high-performing teams.

Globally, we partner with organisations across a broad range of sectors through three core service lines:

  • Board & Executive Search
  • Interim Leadership
  • Human Capital Advisory

In the UK, we specialise in financial services, working with asset owners, asset managers, and the professional advisers and product and service providers that support them.

As our business continues to grow, we are looking to appoint an experienced Talent Acquisition Consultant to support the delivery of a major recruitment programme for one of our clients.

The Opportunity

Working closely with our Chief Executive, you will play a leading role in delivering a significant recruitment programme on behalf of one of our clients.

The role will be split between our office in Ashton-under-Lyne and working on-site with the client, becoming an extension of their talent acquisition function and ensuring an outstanding recruitment experience for both candidates and hiring managers.

This is a hands-on delivery role where you’ll take ownership of multiple recruitment campaigns from initial briefing through to successful appointment. You’ll work with a high degree of autonomy whilst representing Hoffmann Reed professionally and building trusted relationships with our client and their stakeholders.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage end-to-end recruitment campaigns across multiple vacancies.
  • Build strong relationships with hiring managers and advise on recruitment strategy and market conditions.
  • Write engaging job advertisements and candidate information.
  • Source candidates through LinkedIn Recruiter, networking, referrals and direct search techniques.

About You

We’re looking for an experienced Talent Acquisition professional who enjoys working closely with hiring managers and delivering outstanding recruitment outcomes.

You may currently work within an internal Talent Acquisition team or within a recruitment consultancy. Experience gained in an in-house Talent Acquisition environment would be particularly attractive, although it is by no means essential.

You’ll be someone who enjoys taking ownership, building relationships and delivering an exceptional candidate experience.

You’ll ideally have:

  • Experience managing end-to-end recruitment campaigns.
  • Strong direct sourcing and candidate engagement skills.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
  • The ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • A proactive, organised and solutions-focused approach.
  • Confidence working independently whilst collaborating effectively with colleagues and clients.
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to client locations when required.

Experience recruiting within financial services would be advantageous but is not essential.

Why Join Hoffmann Reed?

This is an opportunity to join a growing international Human Capital Advisory firm at an exciting stage in its development.

Working directly with our Chief Executive, you’ll have genuine responsibility, exposure to senior client stakeholders and the opportunity to make a real impact by leading a high-profile recruitment programme.

For the right individual, this role also offers the opportunity to help shape and grow our Talent Acquisition capability as part of our wider Human Capital Advisory practice.

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a genuine difference and work as a trusted adviser rather than simply filling vacancies, we’d love to hear from you.
