Engagement Executive – Worcester/Hybrid

At De Lacy Executive, our vision of recruitment is that it isn’t a one-off transaction where people are treated like commodities. We take a long-term view, recognising that a career can span 50 years, and that what people really need is support at key moments – when their current role no longer fits and they’re ready for a change.

What we’re most proud of is that, over our 25 years in business, we’ve supported individuals through multiple stages of their careers – from securing their first role to being there when they’re ready to take the next step.

This exciting new role is the embodiment of that approach.

The Role

Fundamentally, the Engagement Executive position is about looking after people. It’s important to remember that we’re dealing with people’s livelihoods – whether they’re coming to us for help with their first job, looking to step up into a bigger role, or, in less happy circumstances, facing redundancy.

At its core, the role is about listening, understanding, and offering honest advice. You’ll onboard new registrations and build relationships across our network of agricultural professionals, keeping in touch and guiding them towards the right opportunities at the right time.

A key part of the role is making sure no one falls through the cracks. Strong candidates won’t always secure a role first time, and sometimes the right opportunity just isn’t there yet. It’s about staying connected, continuing to support them, and being ready when the timing is right.

Ultimately, this is a relationship-led role focused on providing consistent, long-term support to our network.

What You Will Be Doing

• Building and maintaining relationships across agriculture, food and rural industries
• Staying connected with individuals throughout their career journey
•  Supporting consultants with market research and network development
• Maintaining accurate, high-quality candidate information
• Monitoring market activity and identifying future opportunities
• Strengthening our network and overall delivery capability

More importantly, you will be:

• A confident communicator who enjoys engaging with people
• Naturally proactive and curious
• Organised and able to manage multiple priorities
• Motivated by long-term relationship building
• Interested in the agricultural and rural sectors

Why Join Us?

• Join one of the UK's most respected agricultural recruitment consultancies
• Be part of a collaborative and supportive team
• Play a key role in an exciting period of growth
• Help shape a newly created position
• Work in a business that values relationships over transactions
• Make a visible impact on recruitment outcomes and business performance
