Our products and services are designed to meet the highest standards of quality and performance, helping our customers achieve their objectives efficiently and effectively.
About the Role
As a Lead Talent Acquisition Coordinator, you’ll support the global Talent Acquisition team by coordinating recruitment activity across the hiring lifecycle and acting as the internal connection point between AGS, recruiters, hiring managers, HR and other recruitment service providers. You’ll play an important role in providing visibility, clear ownership and follow\-through from vacancy initiation through selection, pre\-employment checks, offer and onboarding handover. The role is based on site in Basingstoke, UK.
What You'll Do
- Recruitment coordination: Coordinate global recruitment activity from requisition initiation and approval through interview, selection, offer, pre\-employment checks and handover to onboarding, maintaining oversight of open requisitions and outstanding actions.
- Partner and stakeholder management: Act as the key day\-to\-day connection between AGS, recruiters, HR teams and hiring managers, providing clear updates, following up dependencies and escalating issues or risks where appropriate.
- Candidate and offer support: Coordinate interview activity and candidate communications as required and ensure offer information, approvals and documentation are coordinated accurately and efficiently.
- Pre\-employment screening: Coordinate and administer background and pre\-employment checks through First Advantage, monitoring progress, maintaining accurate records and escalating delays, discrepancies or issues while protecting candidate confidentiality.
- Data, reporting and governance: Maintain accurate recruitment records, trackers and systems; produce regular recruitment reporting and management information; and support recruitment governance in line with agreed processes, policies and relevant UK employment and data protection requirements.
- Continuous improvement and projects: Identify recruitment bottlenecks and process gaps, work with HR, recruiters, AGS and other partners on practical improvements, and support volume hiring, campaigns, process changes, system improvements and other talent projects.
- Experience: Previous experience in global Talent Acquisition, recruitment coordination, recruitment operations, HR coordination or a similar people\-focused role; experience with pre\-employment screening is advantageous.
- Organisation: Strong organisational and prioritisation skills, with the ability to manage multiple vacancies, activities and deadlines simultaneously and proactively follow actions through to completion.
- Communication: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with confidence working with candidates, recruiters, HR colleagues, hiring managers and external partners.
- Systems and reporting: Comfortable working with recruitment and HR systems, Microsoft Office, recruitment trackers and reporting tools, with the ability to use recruitment data to provide clear stakeholder updates.
- Confidentiality and detail: Strong attention to detail and commitment to accurate recruitment and candidate information, with professionalism and discretion when handling confidential and sensitive data.
- Operating model and knowledge: A collaborative, solutions\-focused approach during organisational change; knowledge of UK recruitment practices is advantageous, as is experience within an RPO or outsourced recruitment model or with an external talent acquisition provider.
