Job description

Resourcer / Recruitment Administrator

Quest Employment – Commercial Team

Let’s get this straight from the start:
This role is not about cold-calling strangers and chasing targets with a stopwatch.

It is about being organised, curious, people-focused and quietly brilliant behind the scenes — the person who keeps the recruitment wheels turning while I’m out meeting clients, interviewing candidates and building relationships.

If you love structure, lists, people, and seeing things come together properly, you might be my person.

What you’ll be doing (day to day)

No two days are the same, but here’s the honest version:

Sourcing candidates for commercial office roles using job boards, LinkedIn and CV databases
Speaking to candidates, booking interviews and keeping them informed throughout the process
Supporting with candidate registrations, compliance and right-to-work checks
Keeping our CRM accurate, up to date and organised
Supporting interview feedback, offers and onboarding paperwork
Being the calm, organised backbone of the desk

You won’t be thrown in at the deep end — you’ll be supported, trained and trusted.

Progression & development

This role can grow with you.

If you enjoy the candidate side, there is real scope to develop into a candidate-focused or resourcing specialist role.
If you’re commercially minded, curious about clients and enjoy building relationships, there is also potential to develop into a recruitment consultant or sales-focused role over time.

Progression isn’t forced — it’s based on what you enjoy, where your strengths sit, and what you want to build your career into.

What We're looking for

You don’t need recruitment experience (nice if you have it, not essential). What matters is that you:

Are organised and like things done properly
Are confident speaking to people by phone and email
Have strong attention to detail
Are proactive and willing to take ownership
Are comfortable using systems, Outlook, Word and databases
Care about people and doing a good job

If you enjoy ticking things off a list and making life easier for others, we’ll get on very well.

What this role is (and isn’t)

It is:

A supportive, collaborative role
Busy, varied and people-focused
A genuine entry point into recruitment with room to grow
An opportunity to shape your career, not be boxed in

It isn’t:

Aggressive sales
Cold-call heavy
Micromanaged
A dead-end admin role

Why work with us?

We genuinely care about doing recruitment properly — for clients and candidates.
You’ll be supported, taught, backed and treated as part of the team, not “just admin”.

We work hard, care about what we do and do things the right way.

Interested?

If this sounds like a role you’d enjoy now — and could see yourself growing into something more — I’d love to hear from you.

Apply, message, or reach out for a conversation. No pressure. No nonsense.
