Recruitment CoordinatorAbout BHP Maintenance
BHP Maintenance delivers reactive maintenance and planned works across London and the South East.
As our business continues to grow, we're looking for a Recruitment Coordinator to help us build and maintain a reliable network of plumbers, electricians, multi-traders, roofers and subcontractors across London and the South East.
This is a hands-on role combining recruitment with workforce coordination. You'll proactively source and recruit skilled tradespeople, maintain relationships with our existing workforce and keep our workforce database accurate and up to date.
When Operations requires additional workforce, you'll search our existing network first, contact suitable operatives and confirm their availability, location and suitability. Where suitable people are not already available, you'll recruit externally to strengthen our network and meet current and future requirements.
You'll work closely with our Operations team, providing them with suitable workforce options while Operations remains responsible for the final job allocation.
This is a full-time, office-based position at our Dartford office.
If you enjoy speaking with people, staying organised, building relationships and taking ownership of your work, we'd like to hear from you.
