We are Rolls Royce SMR - the future of nuclear power generation in the UK!
We have this week been formally confirmed contractual partner to Great British Energy - Nuclear as we consolidate our leading-edge technology, impeccable engineering provenance and competitive commercial advantage in to one, irresistible proposition.
To bring this vision in to reality, we need the best, brightest and boldest colleagues we can find from both the nuclear sector and, more importantly, from adjacent sectors as we support the Destination Nuclear initiatives which will supercharge the growth of the nuclear workforce in the UK by at least a third in the next 5 years.
In real terms that equates us finding, recruiting and onboarding hundreds of new colleagues, mostly specialists, this year ... and thousands in the years to follow.
And we need you to help us find them - specifically for our Engineering Directorate!
However, whilst we know the the very best and brightest recruiters have skills that can transfer across disciplines, functions, locations, platforms and hiring communities, as we are looking for someone for a fixed 12 month period who will make a resoundingly positive impact from day 1, we're going to be quite specific on what you'll bring. We need you to be:
A Senior Recruiter or Talent Acquisition Partner who is able to start in early May (subject to vetting), mid-May latest.
Able to demonstrate that you have managed and delivered end-to-end campaigns in STEM disciplines (engineering preferred) and recruited at least 120 professional/specialist hires directly per year with minimal agency support
Willing, and able, to commute to Manchester and/or Warrington and spend at least one full day in the office every week with the rest of the team
Capable of showing the highest levels of candidate and hiring team care and engagement
In return, we can offer you
Membership of the fabulous TA team (yes, but we are only slightly biased) who in turn are a key cog in a warm and welcoming HR function
A good salary - we're thinking c£55,000 - but offer a £2,200 cash allowance, a great pension, 28 days hols (plus stats), BUPA and a load of other benefits
A flexible, inclusive, and supportive working environment.
A culture that values diversity, innovation, and continuous learning.
LinkedIn Hiring Assistant (their snazzy AI-assisted sourcing tool)
And last, but not least, Rolls Royce SMR on your CV - we are a world-class brand (which rather helpfully enables us to find candidates that other brands cannot)
There is a JD if you'd like one - it talks about meeting SLAs, managing campaigns, posting jobs and being active on social media (and more) but if you meet the criteria above you will know what the job entails.
Why Join Us?
You’ll be joining a forward-thinking organisation that values transparency, fairness, and innovation. We offer:
•   A flexible, inclusive, and supportive working environment.
•   Opportunities for career growth in a rapidly scaling business.
•   A culture that values diversity, innovation, and continuous learning.
We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all backgrounds. Inclusivity is important to us, and as a Disability Confident organisation, we are committed to fair, supportive, and continually improving recruitment practices that ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Confidence can sometimes hold us back from applying for a job. But we'll let you in on a secret: there's no such thing as a 'perfect' candidate. If you feel you meet 75% of the requirements for this role, we would love to hear from you.
Also, if you are considering a career move or a sector-jump, please get in touch – we welcome applications from people with transferable skills.
