    Description

    The OpportunityNigel Wright are delighted to be partnering exclusively with The Recruitment Junction, an award-winning not-for-profit recruitment agency with a powerful social mission: to place people with convictions into sustainable employment, transforming lives, families and communities. Following significant organisational growth and national recognition for their impact, The Recruitment Junction is expanding its Durham operation and now seeks an exceptional Senior Recruitment Consultant who is ready for fast‐track progression to Manager. The Recruitment Junction is a social impact organisation based in the North East, dedicated to transforming the lives of people with convictions through meaningful paid employment. Since their inception in 2020 they have supported over 700 people to rediscover a sense of purpose through finding fulfilling work where they can add real value, becoming role models who drive positive generational impact across their families. As a passionate, values‐led charity their mission is to bridge the gap between talented individuals and employers offering rewarding job opportunities, creating a thriving community where everyone has the chance to succeed. They deliver on skills shortages, push back on regional unemployment and contribute to a national reduction in reoffending. There are only five charities across the country with a targeted focus on getting people with convictions back into paid employment. With around 50,000 people being released from prison each year and over 12m people already in the community facing the barrier of a criminal record, the need for specialist job‐finder support is vast.
