Are you a proactive, commercially minded recruiter who thrives in technical, engineering or project‑driven environments?  Do you currently work within an agency or RPO environment and seeking your first inhouse role, or do you work inhouse and need a fresh challenge?  NRS is looking for a Resourcing Specialist to shape hiring outcomes that directly support some of the UK’s most impactful infrastructure and engineering programmes.

What will you be doing?

This is a role for someone who loves partnering deeply with the business, getting under the skin of workforce needs, understanding technical requirements and designing smart resourcing approaches.
