We place temporary and permanent staff into roles including Estate Managers, Building Managers, Concierge, Receptionists, and Security Guards across some of London's most prestigious residential developments.

Our temps desk is thriving
-
we're busy, the market is strong, and our clients rely on us to deliver quality candidates at short notice. We need someone who can keep up with the pace and enjoy every minute of it.

The Role

This is a
true temps recruitment role -
fast-paced, relationship-driven, and all about getting the right people into the right shifts, quickly.

Your Day-to-Day:

Client Management

• Take incoming booking requests from property management clients (often at short notice)
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients - become their go-to person
• Understand client requirements, confirm shift details, rates, and expectations
• Provide excellent customer service and responsive communication

Candidate Coordination

• Match available candidates to shifts based on skills, location, and availability
• Confirm bookings with candidates - rates, shift times, locations, dress code, etc.
• Keep candidates engaged, happy, and available for future bookings
• Manage last-minute changes, cancellations, or no-shows with professionalism

Administration & Systems (10%)

• Enter bookings accurately onto our recruitment system
• Track timesheets and work with payroll to ensure smooth processing
• Keep candidate and client records current

Occasional Candidate Sourcing
When required, you may support the team with sourcing new candidates through job boards, referrals, and database searching—but this isn't the primary focus of the role.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

• Proven experience in temporary/interim recruitment
• Experience in a high-volume, fast-paced temps desk environment
• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail - you won't drop the ball
• Strong communication skills - friendly, professional, and calm under pressure
• Ability to handle last-minute bookings and changes without stress
• Customer service mindset - helpful, responsive, and solution-focused
• Confident using recruitment databases/ATS systems
• Ability to multitask - juggling multiple bookings, calls, and clients simultaneously
• Team player who thrives in a collaborative, supportive environment

Desirable:

• Experience in property, facilities management, or hospitality recruitment (not essential—we can teach you the sector)
• Knowledge of London geography (helps with matching candidates to locations)
• Resilience and positive attitude
