We’re looking for a highly organised and proactive Junior Resource Manager.

What You’ll Do:
- Update daily resource rotas and allocate work to ensure efficient project delivery across your workstream.
- Coordinate freelance staffing needs in line with HR policies, and contribute to growing and maintaining a high-quality freelance talent pool.
- Oversee the full freelancer onboarding process — including new starter forms, rate discussions, and general onboarding support.
