The Role
As a Talent Manager, you will play a key role in sourcing, engaging, and placing talent across contractor, permanent, and fixed-term (FTC) roles. You will manage candidate pipelines, support hiring across complex programmes, and ensure a high-quality experience for both clients and candidates.

  • Work closely with clients and hiring managers to understand workforce needs and role requirements
  • Coordinate interviews, feedback, and offer processes
  • Support contractor onboarding and compliance processes where required
  • Maintain accurate candidate and pipeline records within the CRM/ATS system
  • Provide a high-quality candidate experience throughout the hiring process
  • Support workforce planning and talent mapping activities for future hiring needs

Requirements
  • Experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, or workforce delivery
  • Experience working across contractor and permanent hiring
  • Strong sourcing and candidate engagement skills
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities
  • Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple roles and hiring streams simultaneously
  • Strong attention to detail and understanding of compliance processes


Nice to Have
  • Experience recruiting for public sector organisations, consultancies, or government programmes
  • Knowledge of contractor markets, IR35 considerations, or contingent workforce models
  • Experience using recruitment systems and candidate databases

What We Offer
  • Competitive salary
  • Performance-based incentives
  • Flexible / remote working
  • Opportunity to work on impactful public sector programmes
  • Collaborative and supportive team environment
  • Clear progression opportunities as Olive Jar grows
