Talent Specialist
Are you passionate about finding exceptional talent and delivering inclusive, values-led recruitment experiences? We’re looking for a Talent Specialist to join our team and help us shape the future of recruitment across our organisation.
About the role
As a Talent Specialist, you’ll proactively source top talent through innovative and inclusive methods. You’ll work closely with hiring managers to understand role requirements, build strong candidate pipelines, and ensure every recruitment campaign results in a successful hire first time.
You’ll be working within a team, embedding our values into every interaction and helping us build a diverse, high-performing workforce.
We work in a hybrid way, with two days a week in our London office to connect and collaborate.
What you’ll be doing
As a Talent Specialist, you’ll lead end-to-end recruitment campaigns in close partnership with hiring managers, using tools like LinkedIn Recruiter to proactively source top talent. You’ll build strong relationships across the People team, coach stakeholders on inclusive hiring practices, and manage recruitment through our ATS, handling repeat and high-volume hiring needs with a focus on data-driven decisions. From crafting compelling job adverts and maintaining talent pools to coordinating assessment centres and recruitment days, you’ll play a key role in delivering a seamless and inclusive candidate experience.
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.
