Want to build a career in recruitment?
Recruitment Boutique is a specialist recruitment company dedicated to supporting the UK retail automotive network.
We work with main dealer groups across the country, supplying both temporary and permanent recruitment solutions, and we’re looking for a Recruitment Resourcer to become an integral part of our growing temporary recruitment team.
But we’re not simply looking for someone to fill an administration role.
We’re looking for our next Recruitment Consultant.
You’ll join us initially as a Resourcer, learning our business, our industry, our candidates and what it takes to deliver a genuinely great recruitment service.
You’ll work closely with our Senior Recruitment Consultant and wider team, taking responsibility for candidate sourcing, screening and qualification alongside the essential recruitment administration that keeps a busy temporary division moving.
As your knowledge, confidence and ability develop, so will your responsibilities.
For the right person, this role is the beginning of a career with Recruitment Boutique.
The Role
Our temporary division is built around specialists.
Our Business Development team creates and develops opportunities across the UK retail automotive network. Our Recruitment Consultant manages our talent network and ensures we have the right people available to meet that demand.
You’ll sit at the heart of that process.
Your role will be to help us identify, engage, screen and qualify great automotive professionals while ensuring the administration behind our recruitment operation is accurate, organised and moving at pace.
- You’ll speak with candidates every day.
- You’ll learn what makes a great temporary automotive professional.
- You’ll understand their experience, availability, expectations and motivations.
- And importantly, you’ll learn how to make a judgement about whether someone is right for Recruitment Boutique and the clients we represent.
This is a role where people skills and attention to detail matter equally.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll support our Senior Recruitment Consultant and wider temporary team across candidate acquisition, screening, qualification and recruitment administration.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Proactively searching for and identifying automotive professionals through job boards, our existing database and other sourcing channels
- Speaking with new and existing candidates every day
- Screening and qualifying candidates for temporary opportunities
- Understanding candidates’ experience, skills, qualifications, availability, travel expectations and motivations
- Building genuine relationships with candidates rather than treating recruitment as a transaction
- Following up with candidates who have previously registered or expressed an interest in working with us
- Keeping our candidate network engaged and their availability up to date
- Supporting the Recruitment Consultant with candidate searches and assignment requirements
- Ensuring candidate information is accurately recorded and maintained within our CRM
- Supporting candidates through the registration and onboarding process
- Ensuring registrations and candidate records meet our required quality standards
- Completing recruitment administration accurately and on time
- Supporting the weekly timesheet process and ensuring required actions and follow-ups are completed within agreed deadlines
- Managing incoming candidate enquiries by telephone and email
- Working closely with the wider team to ensure vacancies and temporary assignments are supported quickly
- Taking ownership of tasks and following them through to completion
- Stepping in and supporting the team wherever needed
And as you develop, you’ll begin taking on greater responsibility for candidate management, assignments and ultimately your own recruitment activity.
Who We’re Looking For
Recruitment experience would be useful.
It isn’t essential.
We’re more interested in finding someone with the right attitude, personality and ambition.
Someone who is hungry to succeed.
Someone who genuinely enjoys speaking with people.
Someone who wants responsibility rather than waiting to be given it.
And someone who understands that being part of a successful team sometimes means going above and beyond to get the right result for a candidate, colleague or client.
You’ll need to be:
- Naturally confident and comfortable speaking with people over the phone
- Curious and willing to ask questions
- A strong communicator on the phone and in writing
- Highly organised
- Comfortable managing multiple priorities and deadlines
- Accurate and attentive when completing administrative tasks
- Proactive rather than waiting to be told what to do next
- Resilient when things don’t go to plan
- Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment
- Driven by achieving results
- Genuinely passionate about delivering great service
- Comfortable working towards clear, measurable KPIs
- A team player who takes pride in the success of the people around them
Most importantly, we want someone who wants to learn, develop and progress.
This Isn’t Just an Admin Role
There will be administration.
Quite a lot of it.
Accurate records, candidate information, registrations, timesheets, CRM updates and recruitment processes are fundamental to running a successful temporary recruitment business.
That’s only one part of the role.
You’ll also be having conversations, assessing people, building relationships, sourcing candidates, solving problems and helping our team put the right automotive professionals into the right assignments.
We want you to understand why we do things, not simply how to complete a task.
Because ultimately, we want you to develop beyond the Resourcer position.
Your Performance Bonus
We believe performance should be recognised — and that you should know exactly what good performance looks like.
Alongside your basic salary of £26,000–£30,000, you’ll have the opportunity to earn a £250 monthly performance bonus, giving you an additional £3,000 earning potential each year.
Every element of the bonus is linked to clear, measurable KPIs specific to your role.
These will include areas such as:
- Candidate sourcing and completed screening activity
- Candidate registration quality and accuracy
- Timesheet management and follow-up
- CRM and administrative accuracy
- Candidate availability and database accuracy
There are no vague or subjective measures.
You’ll know your targets, you’ll be able to track your performance against them, and you’ll know exactly what you need to achieve to earn your bonus.
Hit the standards. Earn the bonus. Simple.
Your Progression
We see this role as a feeder into our Recruitment Consultant position.
You won’t be promoted simply because you’ve been here for a certain amount of time.
You’ll progress because you’re ready.
You’ll work directly with and report to our Senior Recruitment Consultant, gaining exposure to every stage of the candidate recruitment journey.
As you demonstrate your ability to source and screen candidates, manage relationships, understand assignment requirements and take ownership of your work, we’ll give you greater responsibility.
You’ll start becoming involved in candidate management, matching candidates to assignments and the wider commercial recruitment process.
The goal is for you to develop the skills, knowledge and confidence required to become a successful Recruitment Consultant within our business.
Your progression is there to be earned — and we’ll give you the opportunity and support to earn it.
And when you make that progression, your responsibilities, targets and earning potential will progress with you.
Why Recruitment Boutique?
We’ve specialised in automotive recruitment since 2014 and work exclusively within the sector.
Our temporary division has been built differently from the traditional 360 recruitment model.
Rather than expecting one person to manage every stage of the recruitment process, we have specialists responsible for different areas of the operation.
You’ll be joining a growing team with specialist operational support across the wider temporary division.
Everyone has their role.
Everyone contributes.
Everyone’s performance has an impact on the success of the team.
You’ll be joining an established recruitment business with an existing client base, an extensive network of automotive professionals and ambitious plans for continued growth.
The Opportunity
This role is perfect for someone who knows they are capable of more and wants an opportunity to prove it.
You might already work in recruitment support, resourcing, administration, customer service, sales, automotive or another people-focused environment.
Your current job title isn’t particularly important to us.
Your attitude is.
We can teach you our systems.
We can teach you recruitment.
We can teach you the automotive market.
What we’re looking for is the hunger to learn, the confidence to communicate, the discipline to stay organised and the determination to deliver for your candidates and your team.
If you’re looking for a comfortable administration role where every day looks the same, this probably isn’t the opportunity for you.
If you want to build a career, take on responsibility and develop into a Recruitment Consultant, we’d like to hear from you.
