Well, this time it's us!
Mansfield & Co is a boutique recruitment agency based on Unley Road in Malvern. We've been around for over 10 years and, in that time, have built some fantastic relationships with businesses and candidates across South Australia.
We're a small team with a big network, recruiting across Accounting & Finance, Office Support, HR, Marketing & Communications and senior leadership roles. Our clients are just as varied, from family-owned businesses and growing SMEs to some of SA's most recognised organisations.
We're pretty proud of the reputation we've built. We take our work seriously, but definitely not ourselves! We believe recruitment should be personal, honest and enjoyable, and we're big on doing the right thing by both our clients and candidates.
So, what's the opportunity?
We're creating a new Recruitment Associate role to support our growing team, and we're looking for someone who genuinely loves the candidate side of recruitment.
If you're someone who gets a real buzz out of meeting great people, uncovering talent and matching candidates with opportunities they'll love, this could be right up your alley.
You'll work closely with our consultants across permanent and temporary recruitment, sourcing, interviewing and building relationships with candidates at all levels.
One day you might be interviewing an Executive Assistant, the next a Finance Manager or HR professional. You'll also help us grow our busy temp desk, keep recruitment campaigns on track and make sure our candidates continue to receive a great experience.
It's a role with plenty of variety, lots of people interaction and the opportunity to make a genuine contribution to our team's success.
And while recruitment will be your main focus, we're a small team, so you'll also get involved in a bit of everything else that keeps M&Co ticking along!
What will your week look like?
No two weeks will be quite the same, but here's a taste of what you'll be doing:
- Sourcing great candidates through LinkedIn, SEEK, our database and networks
- Screening applications and conducting candidate interviews across a wide range of roles and industries
- Building relationships with candidates and keeping in touch with great people for future opportunities
- Supporting our consultants with recruitment campaigns, candidate shortlists, reference checks and pre-employment processes
- Working alongside our Temp Consultant to source and onboard temporary staff, assist with urgent requirements and help manage timesheets
- Spotting standout candidates to feature in our Talent Showcase and introduce to clients
- Keeping our recruitment processes running smoothly when consultants are away
- Helping coordinate team events, marketing activities and the general day-to-day running of the office
First and foremost, we're looking for someone who loves recruitment, enjoys talking to people and takes pride in doing a great job.
You'll already have recruitment experience and feel confident interviewing candidates independently. You'll be curious, a good listener and someone who can quickly get their head around different roles and what makes a great candidate.
You'll also be:
- Organised, proactive and comfortable juggling a few things at once
- A natural relationship builder who enjoys getting to know people
- Tech-savvy and happy to embrace new tools, including AI, to work smarter
- Detail-oriented, with good judgement and a commercial mindset
- Flexible and willing to roll up your sleeves when things get busy
- Someone who enjoys being part of a team and brings a level of energy and a positive attitude to work
We're a small, close-knit team and genuinely enjoy working together. We work hard, support each other and enjoy a good chat and a laugh throughout the day. We also love an excuse to get out for lunch, celebrate a win or organise a team activity.
And there's something exciting on the horizon! We're moving into a brand-new office on King William Road, Unley in early 2027.
You'll have the opportunity to work across a really interesting mix of recruitment assignments, build your skills and contribute ideas in an environment where everyone's input is valued.
We're also big believers in flexibility and understand that there's life outside of work. We're open to someone working full-time or 0.8 FTE, with the option to work from home one day per week.
Sound like your kind of role?
If you love the candidate side of recruitment, enjoy variety and think you'd be a great addition to our team, we'd love to hear from you!
