Description

Permanent or fixed term position until 31 December 2023 available:

Love meeting new people and getting a bit creative? Then this is the perfect role for you The mission is simple: help us recruit over 100 people before Christmas.

"How?" you may ask - well that's up to you...


What will your job look like?:

Well this certainly isn't your average desk job, that's for sure Think Job Fairs, Recruitment Days, and lots of creative ways to get people through our front door to bolster the team.

Local employment agencies are there to help too, and it'll be up to you to decide how we can utilise their expertise to support our own efforts.


You'll need to figure out what local jobseekers are "really" after and, with the help of our People Team and the DC Team, what it is we can offer them that will help us stand out against local competition.


And of course you'll also need to shout about it too, using social media, college notice boards and local advertising to find the best way to reach potential applicants.

It's numbers game, and tracking progress is vital so we can mix it up if it's not quite going to plan.


What are we looking for?:

We're looking for a creative thinker who isn't afraid to think 'outside the box'. If you like saying things like "What if" or "How about", you're on the right track.


It's a competitive market and you need to be able to stand out and be heard, so energy and positivity are a must.

Not everything you try will be a hit; but if you're happy to dust yourself off, learn from the experience and try something else, that's what really counts.


Finally, you'll need to hit the ground running so we need somebody who can bring a bit of experience to the table, both with recruitment and managing suppliers - you don't have to be a seasoned pro, but something you can draw from when the going gets tough would be a big help.


What's in it for you?:


Being part of a huge and happy working family, our colleagues are rewarded with a competitive salary, 29 days paid holiday (including bank holidays) and a group personal pension plan.


We also offer all of our colleagues:

  • Free onsite parking
  • Canteen areas with vending machines and a pool table
  • Free tea, coffee and juice
  • Occasional free treats such as bacon buns, cakes and icecream
  • Generous discounts on our products

A little about us:


From humble beginnings as a tight-knit family operation, we've grown into a prestigious kitchenware retailer with over 60 stores nationally, from Aberdeen to Truro.

We've done that by always staying ahead of the pack and looking at things in our own way.

When the home freezing boom happened in the 70s, we anticipated a kitchenware revolution.

Now, we're investing millions to ensure that our online offering is top notch, and that our retail stores can offer an experience worthy of a visit.

That innovative spirit coupled with our intense customer focus has been the story of our success - work with us and it could be yours too.
