  • Background and Reference Checks: Oversee background and reference checks for shortlisted candidates, ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and providing reassurance to stakeholders.
  • Onboarding Coordination: Play a key role in the onboarding process by preparing offer letters, collecting necessary documentation, assisting with “gap training” for licensing, and facilitating orientation sessions to help new hires integrate quickly and effectively.
  • Data Entry and Reporting: Accurately input candidate data into the applicant tracking system and produce insightful reports that assist in making informed decisions.
  • Administrative Support: Provide essential support to the Recruitment Manager and Director by managing calendars, organising meetings, and handling general administrative tasks with ease.
  • A minimum of 4 years of experience in an administrative or office support role, ideally within a talent or recruitment agency setting.
  • Excellent organisational and time management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy, ensuring tasks are completed to a high standard.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, enabling effective interaction with candidates, colleagues, and stakeholders.

  •  
  • Previous experience in recruitment, with a focus on candidate experience, is highly desirable.
  • Experience in recruitment marketing and media campaign preparation will set you apart.
  • Familiarity with immigration procedures and visa requirements is a plus.

This is more than just a role—it’s an opportunity to be part of an innovative program that’s helping to shape the future of the construction industry in South Australia.
