Bring people and opportunity togetherAre you a confident relationship-builder who thrives in a fast-moving environment?

We’re looking for an energetic and highly organised Onsite Recruiter to join Pertemps in Leicester. Working closely with one of our key distribution clients, you’ll become the driving force behind attracting, recruiting and supporting a reliable workforce that keeps their operation moving.

This is much more than filling vacancies. You’ll build strong relationships, understand changing workforce demands and deliver a recruitment service that candidates, workers and the client can genuinely rely on.

What you’ll be doingNo two days will be the same. You’ll take ownership of the end-to-end recruitment journey, including:

Creating engaging recruitment campaigns to attract high-quality candidates

Proactively sourcing talent through job boards, social media, referrals and local networks

Screening, interviewing and selecting candidates for current and future vacancies

Working closely with the onsite team to understand forecasts and workforce requirements

Completing right-to-work checks, pre-employment screening and compliance processes

Providing ongoing worker care, including support with attendance, welfare and payroll queries

Building trusted relationships with candidates, colleagues and client stakeholders

Monitoring service levels, recruitment activity and key performance indicators

Using data and market insight to continuously improve attraction, retention and service delivery

As this position supports a busy local distribution operation, you may also help monitor drivers’ working hours, availability and compliance, providing coaching and support where required.

What we’re looking forYou may already work in recruitment, account management, sales, customer service, logistics or a fast-paced operational environment. Recruitment experience would be valuable, but it isn’t essential—full training will be provided.

What matters most is that you are:

An engaging and confident communicator

Naturally proactive, resourceful and solutions-focused

Highly organised, with strong attention to detail

Comfortable balancing several priorities at once

Resilient and calm when working under pressure

Commercially aware and focused on delivering results

Confident working independently while contributing to a wider team

Able to build strong relationships with people at every level

Passionate about providing an inclusive and positive candidate experience

Flexible and willing to support out-of-hours escalations and occasional weekend cover during peak periods
