Recruitment Administration Assistant

Elevate Supported Living | Nottingham
16 hours per week, flexible | £13.00 per hour (approx. £10,816 per year)

Every Support Worker who joins Elevate starts with a phone call, a reference check and a DBS. When those steps are done well, the people we support get staff who are safe, committed and well suited to the work. That’s what this role is about.

We’re looking for a Recruitment Administration Assistant to join our Recruitment team for 16 hours a week. We’re flexible about when those hours are worked, so we can agree a pattern around school runs, caring responsibilities or anything else you need to fit in.

About us

Elevate is a therapeutic supported living organisation. We support people with mental health needs, learning disabilities and complex needs across Nottingham, Lincoln and Derby. Our values are Integrity, Inclusion, Accountability, Innovation and Service User Focus, and they shape how we hire as much as how we care.

What you’ll be doing

• Requesting, chasing and verifying references
• Supporting DBS verifications and other pre-employment checks
• Scheduling interviews and keeping candidates updated at each stage
• Keeping applicant records accurate and up to date on our recruitment system
• Providing general administrative support to the wider team
• Making screening calls with applicants for Support Worker roles to get a sense of who they are, why they want to work in care, and whether the role is right for them

What we’re looking for

The most important thing is the qualities of a great administrator. We’ll train you in the rest.

• You’re well organised and can keep track of lots of candidates at different stages without anything slipping
• You have a sharp eye for detail, because safer recruitment checks need to be exactly right
• You’re confident and friendly on the phone
• You write clearly and professionally
• You’re comfortable using Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word and Excel)
• You handle confidential information with discretion

It would be a bonus if you have:

• Experience in recruitment or HR administration
• Experience in health and social care

Having both would be ideal, but neither is essential.

What we offer

• Flexible hours arranged around your other commitments
• Full training, on-going guidance and support
• Pro-rata holiday entitlement and a workplace pension
• A supportive team where your work directly affects the quality of care our Service Users receive

Appointment is subject to satisfactory references, Right to Work and DBS checks.

We are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.

We’re proud to be a Disability Confident Committed employer. If you need any adjustments at any stage of the process, please email recruitment@elevatesl.co.uk.
