Red 5 People Ltd
We’ve placed a number of recruiters into this charity over the years, and they’re thriving. Many say it’s the first time they’ve felt they’re genuinely making a difference while still using the skills they built in recruitment.
This is a large, well-established charity with strong progression opportunities and long-term stability. They’ve recently secured a brand-new funded contract and are now hiring Employment Advisors across Brent, Barnet, Ealing, Hammersmith and Hillingdon.
The role is ideal for recruiters or sales professionals looking for a career move into the employability sector — a growing space where skills like relationship building, influencing, managing targets, and motivating people transfer really well.
You’ll be trained as an IPS Employment Specialist, supporting people with health conditions or disabilities into work. The role is community-based, working across sites such as Job Centres, Council Offices, and NHS Trusts rather than being office-based all day. Travel between sites is paid (excluding your normal commute).
You’ll manage a caseload of around 25 participants, helping them move towards employment while also building relationships with employers.
Full training is provided through online learning, shadowing colleagues, and support from your Team Leader.
We’re interested in people with:
- Recruitment experience
- Sales or B2B experience
- Experience supporting vulnerable people
- Or graduates with relevant experience
Please apply via this advert. If you haven’t heard back within 72 hours, you can also contact us through the “Send Us a Message” form on the Red 5 People website.
Please note: this is a permanent, full-time, community-based role (no home working). You’ll need to live within reasonable distance of the areas mentioned. Hours are Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm.
PEASE NOTE – salary is £32,000 – £35,000 (depending on experience / interview).
