Were looking for someone who can bring innovation to Student Roosts recruitment process.

You will also be responsible for building our Employer Brand (from scratch), working in partnership with the marketing team to understand segmentation and how this can be used to Student Roosts advantage in attracting and hiring new team members who get what we do.


You will also be spearheading the build and maintenance of the soon-to-be-launched "work for us" section of the brand-new Student Roost Corporate Website.

This will include creating audio-visual content and keeping job information fresh and relevant.


You will manage the recruitment process for all roles, partnering with the Hiring Manager to review the vacancy, structure, and requirement for the skills they need within their teams and ensuring that the process encourages diversity.

Your skills will also help to ensure new members of the management team, through effective training, are equipped to spot talent and bring them into Student Roost.

We are Student Roost.

Its more than a room. Its more than a job.

The you part

Think youre the right fit for this role? We hope so too.

Youll be someone we can count on to:
Own

  • Work in partnership with hiring managers to ensure that they aren't just automatically replacing a role, but instead reviewing the needs of their team and filling skills gaps.
  • Work to raise awareness of Student Roost as an employer of choice.
  • Take ownership of the "work for us" section of the Roost corporate website.
  • Recruit Management and HQ roles within Student Roost.
Teach

  • Lead the People team by example, highlighting best practice and new ways of working.
  • Teach the People team and internal and external comms teams how to navigate LinkedIn Recruitment, place adverts, and build and edit the Student Roost company page.
Learn

  • Get off to the Best Start Ever and learn the Student Roost way of doing things, including implementing solutions to improve.
  • Work closely with the marketing team to understand and learn customer segmentation and how we can use it to target recruitment campaigns.
Improve

  • Be our recruitment champion, improving attraction and retention within Student Roost.
  • Raise brand awareness and make Student Roost the "goto" employer within the PBSA industry.
Collaborate

  • Work closely with other departments (external comms and marketing) to ensure the recruitment campaigns are on point with other messages and the customerfacing brand.
  • Work with the People team and Hiring Managers to create recruitment campaigns specific to the role we are hiring.
  • Work with various teams and managers to create online content, including videos for the website.
Psst there are some challenges too.

Initially, this role will be quite administrative-heavy until new processes can be adopted.

One of the first things will be to look at improving first stage shortlisting, by using technology to support our hiring managers.


It will be important for you to influence our hiring managers understanding of the importance of progressing vacancies, understanding the volatility of the recruitment market and the need to make this a prioritisation versus the daily challenges the operations managers have in competing priorities.

Equally, you will need to quickly understand the local talent pool at each property as these have individual challenges.

The us part


So, you know what were looking for, but what are you looking for from you next employer? Sure, Student Roost has a portfolio of purpose-built student accommodation properties across the UK but more than that, Student Roost is its people.


We strive to put our residents first, but our people also include those at the heart of what we do: the property teams, support staff, HQ teams and more who help to keep ours a 24/7 365-day home away from home for everyone who chooses to live with us.

We ask that you seek to make a difference every day you show up, and in return well show up for you by rewarding whats right, supporting you in your career growth and aspirations, and championing the unique qualities and ideas that only you can bring to the business.


Simply put:
you do you, so we grow together.
