Key Responsibilities

1. Carry out telephone registrations and first screening interviews with all new candidates, to identify initial motivation, suitability and matching for The Recruitment Junction’s services, and its job opportunities

• The central role of a Recruitment Resourcer is to find and qualify candidates for each of the roles the Recruitment Consultants are trying to fill.
• This covers the full recruitment process, so Resourcers typically spend their days responding to incoming applications, placing job adverts to attract candidates, and conducting searches on the company database to find candidates with relevant skills.
• Call candidates to discuss their experience and identify whether they will be a good fit for the services and available roles.
• Most of these tasks will be carried out on the phone, although there will be times where Resourcers meet face-to-face with employer-clients or candidates to discuss their roles.
• All candidates have a criminal record and for many this can feel like an almost insurmountable barrier to gaining or returning to work; self-confidence can be low and there is often a lot of regret or shame.
• The role of the Resourcer requires an approach which is empathetic and sensitive, speaking hope into people’s situations and conveying the sincere belief that each person has the ability to find purposeful and fulfilling work, regardless of their past.

2. Manage the process of candidate data collection and outcomes reporting, to allow The Recruitment Junction to satisfy the reporting requirements of its funders and commissioners

• Record candidate information on the internal CRM database (as well as any other proprietary databases as required by funders or commissioners), ensuring that all registration forms, data privacy consent and other necessary candidate documentation are properly completed and filed.
• Carry out ID and Right to Work checks on new candidates, ensuring results are properly recorded.
• Work with the team to ensure that regular internal reporting on outcomes takes place in a way that is accurate and timely and helps the charity to learn and adapt its programmes as needed.

3. Carry out other general administrative duties as required

Under the direction of the Manager, carry out general administrative duties as required, including but not limited to:

• First point of contact by phone and email for all candidates and external referral partners.
• Greeting visitors and offering teas and coffees.
• Maintaining a stock of all office supplies, including replenishing the in-house food bank.
• Supporting the team in any way required, including checking and answering phones and emails in their absence, helping to draft CVs, booking people onto training courses, ordering ID documents and shopping for interview outfits with candidates.
• Collating information required for grant applications and contract bids/tenders.
• Assisting with fundraising activities, including maintaining the donor database.
• Financial record-keeping and data entry.
• Participating in at least one fundraising or crowd-funder event per year and, on an ongoing basis, seeking to build up the charity’s donor base through soliciting monthly and one-off donations from across your friendship, business and church networks.

This is a non-exhaustive list of tasks and may be amended from time to time in line with the needs of the charity.

Our Interview Process

This vacancy will close on 6th September, with applications being shortlisted on 7th September.

If you are successful at the shortlisting stage, you will be invited to attend the first stage of our interview process on Tuesday 8th September, between 4:30pm and 7pm, at our new offices in Preston.

We want our recruitment process to give you the opportunity to get to know The Recruitment Junction (TRJ) just as much as it allows us to get to know you.

Rather than a traditional first interview, we will be holding a relaxed group recruitment evening with a ‘speed-dating’ style interview format. This is for applicants for all THREE DIFFERENT VACANCIES we’re hiring for, for the new Preston team.

The evening will begin with an introduction to TRJ from our CEO and Senior Leadership Team, giving you the opportunity to hear more about who we are, our values. the work we do and what it is like to be part of our team. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions in an open audience environment, allowing you to find out more about TRJ, our work and our organisation. Refreshments will also be provided.

You will then have a short, informal, face-to-face conversation with one of our hiring managers. This is designed to be a relaxed opportunity for us to learn a little more about you, while also giving you the chance to ask questions and decide whether TRJ is somewhere you would like to continue pursuing a career.

Following the first-stage event, we will invite successful candidates for a formal final interview.

Key dates:

• Applications close: 6th September
• Shortlisting: 7th September
• Stage One – Recruitment Evening: Tuesday 8th September, 4:30-7pm
• Stage Two – Formal Final Interview: Wednesday 16th September – time to be confirmed

We hope this approach creates a welcoming and informal first stage, giving you a genuine opportunity to learn more about TRJ, meet members of our team and decide whether we are a fit for each other.

Community Development Worker — Holtspur, Beaconsfield

Join Beaconsfield URC as our Community Development Worker and turn a newly refurbished building into a welcoming place in Holtspur.

About us

Beaconsfield United Reformed Church serves two very different communities. Beaconsfield itself is well-resourced, with an active church life. A short distance away, Holtspur tells a different story — isolation, cost-of-living pressure, and too few places for people to simply connect. We're investing in our Holtspur building to change that, and now we need someone to bring it to life.

The role

This is a rare chance to shape a role from the ground up. As our Community Development Worker, you won't be managing an established programme — you'll be building one. You'll get to know Holtspur street by street, person by person, and turn what you learn into activities that genuinely matter: community meals, bereavement support, family and children's groups, informal spaces where people feel they belong. You'll recruit and grow volunteers around you, and you'll help make our refurbished Holtspur building the welcoming hub it's meant to be.

Faith sits at the centre of this role. You'll work closely with our Minister and Eldership, and you'll have the confidence to create natural, unforced opportunities for people to explore Christian faith alongside the practical support you offer. This post carries an occupational requirement under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010 for the postholder to be a practising Christian.

What you'll be doing

• Building a consistent, trusted presence in Holtspur, especially with families, children, young people and isolated residents
• Developing and expanding community activities — lunches, bereavement support, wellbeing groups and more
• Recruiting, supporting and growing volunteers
• Partnering with local schools, charities and community groups
• Creating genuine, natural opportunities for conversations about faith
• Helping tell the story of this work through our website, social media and reporting to Eldership, Church Meeting and Synod

What we're looking for

• Real experience of community engagement, outreach or pastoral work
• A knack for building trust with people who don't yet know you
• Confidence recruiting and encouraging volunteers
• Warmth, resilience, and the organisational skills to turn ideas into action
• An active Christian faith you're comfortable sharing appropriately as part of community work
• Flexibility for occasional evenings and weekends

Experience of church-based or "fresh expressions" community work, working with isolated or marginalised groups, or coordinating volunteers would be a bonus — as would a driving licence.

The details

• Salary: £30,000 p.a. pro rata (£18,000 p.a. actual)
• Hours: 22.5 hours per week (0.6 FTE), three days a week
• Leave: 15 days per year plus pro-rata bank holidays
• Location: Holtspur URC, Crabtree Close, HP9 1UQ
• Probation: 3 months

Safeguarding

This role involves working with children, young people and older adults. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and must comply with United Reformed Church safeguarding policies.

How to apply

Please send a CV along with a personal statement (max. two sides of A4) telling us about your experience building relationships and communities, how you'd go about understanding Holtspur's needs, your track record of working with others to create change, and what draws you to this role.

Closing Date: 20th August, 2026
