    Posted: Nov 26, 2025

    Description

    Are you looking to kickstart a rewarding career in recruitment? Do you enjoy building relationships, helping people, and working in a fast-paced, supportive team?


    Global Highland is looking for an enthusiastic Trainee Recruitment Specialist to join our growing team.

    Why Global Highland?

    We pride ourselves on being a people-first business, offering excellent training, development, and progression opportunities. As part of our commitment to your wellbeing and success, we offer:

    • 31 days holiday (including statutory) + an extra day off for your birthday
    • Onsite gym
    • Free onsite parking
    • Clear progression routes
    • A supportive team environment where your growth really matters


    The Role

    As a Trainee Recruitment Specialist, you will work closely with our Senior Recruitment Specialist and wider recruitment team to learn every aspect of the recruitment process. This is a varied, hands-on role involving both candidate and client interaction.

    You will support the delivery of high-quality recruitment services across permanent, temporary, and contract roles while maintaining compliance, quality, and excellent customer care.

    Key Responsibilities

    You’ll receive full training to help you:

    • Build and maintain strong relationships with both candidates and clients
    • Coordinate candidate attraction through job adverts, online sourcing, and working with our Business Support team
    • Record and update candidate and client activity in our database
    • Assist with candidate selection, screening, and compliance checks
    • Ensure assignees are briefed, inducted, and supported throughout their placements
    • Maintain accurate documentation in line with QHSE and internal quality systems
    • Participate in team meetings, reporting, and process improvements
    • Support out-of-hours on-call duties on a rota basis
    • Identify opportunities to grow the business and contribute to company KPIs
    • Uphold Global Highland’s QHSE procedures, values, and company standards
    • Sales activity to drive business

    This is an exciting opportunity to learn the full recruitment cycle from experienced professionals while developing your commercial, organisational, and people skills.


    About You

    We’re looking for someone who is:

    • Motivated, confident, and eager to learn
    • A strong communicator who enjoys speaking with people
    • Highly organised with good attention to detail
    • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
    • Team-focused, enthusiastic, and proactive

    Experience in customer service, sales, or admin would be beneficial but is not essential — full training will be provided.

    What our candidates think of us...

    Candidate Testimonial

    "From our first conversation, Lyndsey has been exceptional - always following through when she said she'd be in touch and keeping me informed throughout the entire process. In an industry where communication can often be lacking, her reliability and professionalism really stood out. What started as a temporary placement has turned into a permanent position, which speaks volumes about Lyndsey's ability to match candidates with the right opportunities. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and found a role that was genuinely a great fit. Working with her made what can often be a stressful process actually enjoyable and I can't thank her enough."

    Candidate Testimonial

    "From the initial contact to all subsequent follow-up, the team at Global Highland have been engaging, enthusiastic and professional. I was paired up with a suitable role almost immediately and from there, the process has been transparent and seamless. Happy to recommend the team and will certainly look forward to dealing with Global Highland again in the future."
