Job overview

Part time and full time positions available, 2 days per week in Oxford and homeworking for 3 days. 

Do you have experience of supporting a busy and fast paced recruitment team and can evidence providing a positive candidate experience?

At Oxford Health we are on a mission to improve our candidate journey and ensure that anyone interested in joining our Trust receives clear communications, guidance and support throughout the process.

Oxford Health offer many career paths and the recruitment and onboarding team is part of a larger HR department, working collaboratively with our colleagues on many workstreams and projects. If you have bags of initiative, are enthusiastic, helpful, can communicate really effectively, possess excellent attention to detail and want to join a team on a continuous improvement journey then we would love to hear from you!

We are based in Littlemore in Oxford and work from the office 2 days a week and the rest of the time from home, attending recruitment events and team training days in person too. We have full time and part time posts available but we can consider flexible working hours and would encourage you to have a conversation with us ahead of making a formal application if you have any questions. You will need to be flexible to attend in person events and training days as needed and be able to commute to the office twice a week minimum. 

Main duties of the job

These are key roles within our Compliance and Onboarding teams which work closely alongside our Talent and Recruitment Events teams, providing a holistic candidate experience,  ensuring that once moved to offer stage  new starters are moved through our onboarding process in a timely manner, all whilst providing a friendly and welcoming service.

The recruitment and onboarding department is currently going through a change process and there will be opportunities to contribute ideas to making improvements (part of your interview will be around what improvements you think we can make).

This role will initially offer rotational support across all of our business areas and you may in time end up solely supporting one directorate depending on the needs of the business but this experience will ensure you gain clear knowledge about all areas of our Trust.

Working for our organisation

Our values are: “Caring, safe and excellent”

At Oxford Health we offer a wide range of benefits designed to support your career and wellbeing. These include:

  • Excellent opportunities for career progression
