Talent Acquisition Advisor – Northampton – Short-Term Gig Most job ads are a load of waffle. Here’s what you actually need to know. Working hours, when you're in the office (3 days per week) if you want to do 8-4 to avoid traffic, that's cool or 9-5 when you're at home. It's a 37.5 hour working week. Fast-paced, acquisitive business needs a Talent Acquisition Advisor who can step in, sort out hiring needs, and keep things moving. It’s a short-term role, so no long-winded onboarding—just get in, do the job, and make an impact. What You’ll Be Doing: Helping hiring managers figure out what they actually need (not just a copy-paste of the last JD). Managing applications, sourcing talent, and making sure good people don’t slip through the cracks. Keeping stakeholders in check—expect a mix of urgent requests and changing priorities. Using an ATS properly (yes, that means keeping it updated). Offering jobs, giving feedback, and making sure everyone knows what’s happening. What You Need: Recruitment experience (agency, in-house, logistics, or anything that involves hiring at pace). Solid experience with job boards, LinkedIn, and direct sourcing. The ability to juggle multiple roles without dropping the ball. Confidence to push back when needed—hiring managers don’t always know best. Strong communication skills—you’ll be dealing with everyone from site GM's to data analysts. It’s paying mid-thirties, based at their Northampton HQ. If you like the sound of it, hit apply. If it’s not for you, but you know someone who’d be great—share away. Distinct Recruitment Privacy Policy
