Ever thought about working in Recruitment?
At Team, we are in the people business, and success for our candidates, clients and ourselves is what we’re here to achieve. But first, it’s important to understand the philosophy behind what we do, a little concept called…
“Worthwhile Work”
This is the idea that the effects of what we do literally change lives, and it’s something we constantly remind ourselves of. When someone is working in a job they love, it affects their home life, their mental health, their motivation levels, their self-esteem and their future prospects. Our efforts make a massive impact.
There is a very powerful analogy, written about in the book “Gung Ho” by Ken Blanchard, which is woven into the fabric of our team culture. This is based on the understanding that we are doing ‘worthwhile work’ - which impacts not just on the immediate placement, but the lives of those people and clients. Gung Ho involves The Spirit of the Squirrel, The Way of the Beaver & The Gift of the Goose. Learn more here.
Walk the Talk
With ‘worthwhile work’ in mind, we make our own workplace an environment that people want to be part of, so that they can enjoy their lives. Here's how:
We regularly check in with our team, and know that they enjoy working in a supportive, flexible and fulfilling environment where unique talents are able to shine
Celebrating is something we do very well, we celebrate our successes, significant life milestones, anniversaries and general awesomeness
Investing in the latest innovate technology and systems to ensure we stay competitive and ahead of the game
Regular training is offered to ensure we are singing from the same hymn sheet and developing our skills and knowledge
Offering flexibility in how and where we work with a focus on results
Not to mention the crazy. You don’t have to be mad to work here, but it helps
Do You Have What it Takes?
Recruitment is sometimes described as ‘champagne and razor blades’. It’s definitely not for the faint-hearted!
The recruitment process in a game of two halves, where one is on attracting and engaging talent, and the other on business development and account management with clients. Our structure is such that our consultants focus on the area they are naturally inclined towards, but overall, there are some key qualities that we look for in both areas:
High EQ
Strong relationship building skills
Great people skills
Resilience
Professionalism
Solutions focussed
Drive for success
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Negotiation skills
A healthy sense of humour
Experience in the freight and logistics industry is a real bonus!
