Employer Relationship Manager Permanent

 
You will be heading up employer accounts for a national charity who support people with a learning disability into employment.  It’s a home-based role, with very occasional travel.  And although a 9-month contract, it could well extend into a longer-term role.

 
The charity provides a free recruitment service to businesses.  Which is proving very popular in the current climate with staff shortages.   There is no shortage of employers, with currently around 8 large employers all in process keen to be working with the charity to help them solve their hiring problems.  They also buy into the benefits of employing clients with learning disabilities.

 
Managing a team of 2 but helping to coordinate a team of around 30 in local regions, you will oversee recruitment across the country.  A recent example is a national brewery contacted this charity as they had a need for staff.  After meeting with their senior leaders, the National Account Manager then introduced each local brewery contact with the local charity lead.  As recruitment needs come up across the brewery, the National Account Manager checks in with the local team, who are linking up clients with the brewery, submitting them through for interview, managing feedback, supporting the placements with onboarding, and providing ongoing support.  You will oversee the process to ensure its on track.  And report through the brewery’s senior leadership team.

 
Please apply via this advert – everyone gets a response (and if you do get an email stating we don’t think your CV is the right match, the email details how you can get extra feedback easily).  If you want to speak to someone first before applying, feel free to call the office and ask for James (number on the Red 5 People website).

 
To apply, you must have excellent account management experience.  Or you might have previously managed an employability or apprenticeship contract before.  You must have some staff management experience. You will want to work in a remote or home based role.

 
PLEASE NOTE:  This is a 9-month fixed term contract initially.

PLEASE NOTE:  Although advertised as a home-based role. The charity needs people who are relatively central in England i.e. South East of England, Midlands, Yorkshire, Lancashire etc (but far South West, North East or North West might be too greater a distance) as occasional travel to employers and meeting local teams will be required.
