Shape the next chapter of Elemed
2026 is proving to be an exciting year for elemed!
- More clients
- More partnerships
- More opportunities
To continue this growth, we are looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist to join us and help us to find, engage, and ultimately hire our next top consultants.
We are an 11 year old, self-funded, and 100% privately owned consultancy specialising in the world of Medical Devices, MedTech and BioTech. From artificial hearts to cancer-fighting radiotherapy machines, the people we place change lives.
The Role
As Elemed’s Talent Acquisition Specialist, you will be the lead on all hiring across the business. This will range from entry level consultants, through Senior Consultants to Managers, Heads of, and beyond.
- You will have autonomy in your approach to how you engage with great people and be encouraged to be as creative as you can in finding different, interesting, new, and ultimately successful ways of getting to know potential hires.
- The interview process will be yours to control, working with the various members of the team to make sure that the interview process is a great experience for candidates and colleagues alike - regardless of the end result.
- When we have new starters join the business, you will work with the team to make sure that they are set up for success, and that they enjoy their first days and weeks with Elemed.
- You will be the face of the Elemed brand in the talent market, taking full advantage of our vast network and social media presence.
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.
You will have ownership of:
- Identifying great people
- Finding novel ways to open conversations with them
- Building and maintaining great relationships with both active and passive candidates, and colleagues
- Keeping track of pipelines for open roles
- Providing hiring updates to the Leadership team
- Managing the interview process
- Supporting the onboarding process and success of new starters
Who we are looking for
There are two different kinds of applicants this role will suit:
- Someone who is currently in a talent acquisition role for a recruitment agency, and wants the opportunity to play a bigger part and have more impact.
- Someone who is currently working in either a 360 or 180 recruitment role and would like to develop into a talent acquisition specialist.
In terms of skills, we think you’ll need:
- Creativity to think differently to find and engage with recruitment specialists
- Resilience to not give up and show consistency in opening doors
- Communication skills to build and maintain great relationships with both active and passive candidates
- Confidence to pre-screen candidates both over the phone, via video calls and in person
- Organisation to make sure both candidates and colleagues have a great experience during the recruitment process
- The ability to try, fail, learn, take on feedback and put it into action.
As for experience, we think you will:
- Be working for a recruitment agency, or have very recently
- Currently be in a candidate facing role, where you communicate with all kinds of candidates on a daily basis
- Have dealt with large numbers of candidates and multiple roles at one time
- Be confident in finding telephone numbers for candidates you have identified, and then calling them - especially those people you are headhunting!

This is initially a 12 month FTC - but we will still be hiring in 12 months! So if all goes well, there will be the opportunity for this role to become a permanent, full time role.
What you'll get
- £30,000 - £35,000 base salary
- Bonus for each successful hire you make
- Private Health and Dental Care
- Flexible working hours
- Hybrid working, with a Central London office
- Company away days and international incentive trips
- An adult, trusting environment with a friendly, supportive and collaborative team
