Recruitment Administrator
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Recruitment Administrator supports the end-to-end recruitment process, including preparing vacancy paperwork, arranging interviews, communicating with candidates and managers, maintaining accurate electronic records, and completing pre-employment checks. Applicants are generally expected to have sound administrative experience, strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and confidence using Microsoft Office and recruitment or HR systems. Good written and verbal communication is essential, along with the ability to handle confidential information professionally. The successful candidate should work well within a busy team, manage competing deadlines, provide helpful customer service, and demonstrate a commitment to the NHS values of respect, teamwork and improving patient care.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
