Are you ready to join a global leader in recruitment at our state-of-the-art office in Waterbeach? Randstad Education Cambridge is seeking a driven and proactive Resourcing Consultant to join our team as a permanent member of the team.
In this vital role, you won't just be filling jobs; you’ll be the architect of our talent pipeline. You will focus exclusively on the "candidate side" of the recruitment cycle—sourcing, engaging, and securing the very best Educators, Teaching Assistants, and SEN specialists across Cambridgeshire, Norfolk & Suffolk. Your work ensures our consultants have the talent ready to meet the high demand of our local schools.
Key Responsibilities

• Proactive Sourcing: Use of job boards, our extensive internal database and regeneration activities to identify high-quality candidates.
• Talent Pooling: Build and maintain "gold-standard" pipelines for Primary, Secondary, and SEN desks to ensure immediate fulfillment for D2D and long-term bookings.
• Interviewing & Vetting: Conduct thorough initial screenings and face-to-face (or video) interviews to assess suitability and passion for education.
• Compliance Management: Work closely with our compliance team to ensure every candidate is fully vetted and cleared to work safely in schools.
• Brand Ambassadorship: Represent Randstad at careers fairs and networking events to attract new talent to the sector.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: Previous experience in recruitment resourcing, or a candidate-facing role is highly desirable.
• Local Knowledge: An understanding of the Cambridge education landscape or a background in Education/Care is a significant advantage.
• Communication: You must be an expert communicator—someone who can build rapport quickly and "sell" the benefits of working with Randstad.
• Organisation: The ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment is essential. You’ll be managing multiple candidate journeys simultaneously.

Why Randstad Cambridge?

• Competitive Salary: A strong basic salary plus performance-related bonuses.
• Location: Based at the modern Cambridge Innovation Park, offering a fantastic working environment with excellent facilities.
• Career Growth: We are a company that promotes from within. Whether you want to become a 360 Consultant or a Senior Resourcer, we provide the L&D support to get you there.
• Benefits: Access to the Randstad "share purchase" scheme, high-street discounts, and a generous holiday entitlement.

We are an inclusive employer and should you require any reasonable adjustments in order to complete any aspect of the recruitment process, please contact the Internal Talent Acquisition (ITA) team.
