Maidstone / Kent | Office-based | c£26,000–£30,000 + branch commission & incentive scheme

We’re TLP, a specialist recruitment business built by the people who work here. We partner with clients and candidates across a range of industries, with particular expertise in the fast-paced world of UK logistics recruitment.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Recruitment Resourcer to join our Maidstone team, supporting our temporary recruitment operation and developing strong local networks of drivers and logistics candidates.

This is a relationship-led role. We need someone who enjoys talking to people, building trust and staying close to their candidate network – knowing who is available, who may be becoming available and who they might know.

The Good Stuff!

• c£26,000–£30,000 depending on experience.
• Branch commission and incentive scheme.
• A supportive and collaborative team environment.
• Training, coaching and ongoing development.
• Holiday allowance that increases with service.
• A range of health and wellbeing benefits.

Key activities will include:

• Proactively identifying and engaging drivers and other logistics candidates across the local market and our existing database.
• Building strong candidate relationships, keeping in regular contact and generating referrals and recommendations.
• Screening candidates for experience, licence categories, availability, preferred work and suitability.
• Supporting high-volume and urgent temporary recruitment requirements across driving, logistics, warehousing and related roles.
• Meeting and registering candidates face-to-face, supporting Right to Work and compliance requirements and providing a first-class candidate experience.
• Working closely with the Maidstone team to maintain accurate candidate information and build pipelines around current bookings and anticipated demand.

What are we looking for?

Understanding or experience within driving, transport or logistics is essential, and previous recruitment, resourcing or candidate-sourcing experience is strongly preferred.

We’re looking for someone who is naturally good at developing relationships, comfortable picking up the phone and starting conversations, and proactive about keeping in touch with people over time.

You’ll also need to be organised, commercially aware and able to manage changing priorities in a busy temporary recruitment environment.

This is a full-time position, working closely with the wider Maidstone team.

If you know the logistics or driving market, enjoy building relationships and think you could help us strengthen our temporary candidate network across Kent, we’d love to hear from you.
