Recruiter looking to escape recruitment

Tired of long hours, relentless cold calling, and the same old recruitment grind? Here’s your chance to use your skills for good while achieving a better work-life balance. Join a large London charity dedicated to supporting people into meaningful employment.
Based at the Treaty Centre in Hounslow (free parking!), you’ll work reasonable hours in a vibrant and supportive team, making a genuine impact on local residents.

As an Employment Advisor, you’ll meet with 5–8 participants daily, providing personalised one-to-one support to help them overcome barriers to work. Your clients may face challenges such as:

• English not being their first language,
• Balancing caring responsibilities while seeking flexible work, or
• Rebuilding confidence after unemployment or managing a disability.

Using your recruitment expertise, you’ll help clients:

• Craft CVs and cover letters,
• Job search effectively,
• Prepare for interviews, and
• Navigate "better-off" financial calculations for sustainable employment.

You’ll also liaise with local employers, advocate for your clients, and find creative ways to support them—whether it’s sourcing work attire or planning their route to an interview.

Why This Role?

• No More Cold Calling: Focus on building relationships that truly matter.
• Work-Life Balance: Enjoy structured, reasonable hours without the pressure of KPIs.
• Career Growth: Opportunities to progress within a large, impactful organisation.
• Feel Good Factor: Make a tangible difference in people’s lives while using your recruitment skills.
• Employability is a career: You can really go places.  Its a huge sector. Give us a call and we can tell you all about it.
