Talent Acquisition Coordinator in England

About Us – Havas UK

Havas is a leading communications network built around an integrated Village model, bringing together creative, media and health agencies in a single, connected structure. This approach underpins our Converged strategy, aligning talent and capabilities around client needs and enabling teams to work in more integrated, future-facing ways. We partner with some of the world's most recognisable brands, with teams that combine strategy, creativity, media, data and technology to drive meaningful and sustainable growth outcomes, guiding our clients towards their marketing and communication objectives.

The Havas UK People Team

We are a progressive, award-winning People team of 35, supporting the core agencies across the Havas Media and Havas Creative networks in London, Manchester and Leeds. We partner closely with our agencies to build inclusive, high-performing cultures and deliver on our People commitments through thoughtful, data-led and human-centered work. Our Talent Acquisition and Talent Development leaders work incredibly closely together into a new, central Talent function within the People team. This creates a single, joined-up approach to attracting, developing and deploying skills across the Village, strengthening internal mobility, improving consistency and enabling a seamless people experience from attraction through career growth.

As the Talent Acquisition Coordinator you will work with the Senior members of the team to create a network of sustainable and reliable talent pools, be the eyes and ears of the industry, assist with admin tasks and act as a Havas brand ambassador when scoping out the market. The talent market is often very reactive and so proactively having your finger on the pulse of what is happening around the business is very important. You'll be working with candidates to find out their best skillsets, creating reporting structures for the wider business to make sure we are managing costs effectively and supporting the wider team with admin, strategy and ensuring an excellent candidate experience.

Ultimately, you will bring the sort of innovation and inspiration to the overall people experience that will continue to make us stand out as a great place to work whilst helping to shape both the People Strategy and the Business Strategy in the agencies you support.
