Talent Acquisition & Recruitment Manager
£34,000–£36,000 depending on experience Full-time, permanent | Stockbridge, Hampshire
Find Exceptional Talent. Build Strong Pipelines. Lead Recruitment.
Are you an experienced recruitment or talent acquisition professional who knows how to find great people — and how to build the strategy and pipeline to keep finding them?
We’re looking for a proactive, commercially minded Talent Acquisition & Recruitment Manager to lead the recruitment of our nationwide community of professional live-in carers.
You’ll take ownership of our recruitment strategy, proactively source and attract exceptional candidates, develop strong talent pipelines, lead recruitment activity across the team and ensure we have the right calibre of carers available to meet the needs of our growing business.
Care-sector experience is not required. We’re looking for proven recruitment expertise, strong leadership, commercial awareness and, above all, someone who takes ownership and delivers results.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for:
- Taking ownership of Access Care’s carer recruitment and talent acquisition strategy.
- Proactively sourcing and approaching candidates through direct recruitment, referrals, campaigns, partnerships, databases and new talent channels.
- Building strong, sustainable candidate pipelines to meet current and anticipated business needs.
- Leading and coordinating the Carer Talent & Onboarding team, setting clear priorities, expectations and recruitment targets.
- Monitoring recruitment pipelines, conversion, registration levels and overall recruitment performance.
- Using recruitment data and KPIs to identify opportunities and improve results.
- Conducting structured interviews and making confident, evidence-based selection decisions.
- Maintaining Access Care’s high recruitment standards while ensuring strong candidates progress efficiently.
- Overseeing vetting, compliance and registration.
- Owning and developing our Carer Registration Days as an effective recruitment and conversion channel.
- Identifying new recruitment opportunities, partnerships, campaigns and initiatives.
- Working closely with colleagues to anticipate the skills, experience, availability and geographical coverage required within our carer community.
