Let’s cut straight too it.

Executive Resourcing is a type of recruitment that specialises in more senior, niche or confidential positions. Every piece of recruitment requires a systematic research focus to successfully identify the best candidates for each role - the candidates we speak with are typically very senior and often are not actively looking to change jobs.

We’re looking for a researcher to support our Executive Resourcing Team who will find us the best people, using a variety of methods to identify & approach (headhunt) potential candidates – speaking with them to promote Severn Trent and assess their suitability.

You’ll also manage the end-to-end process for candidates to offer a red-carpet service– from preparing role specifications, approaching & speaking with candidates, arranging interviews and everything in between until they join us.

This is a varied and unique role within Severn Trent where you’ll have close contact with our Executive members and insight into their teams.
