About the role
What does great recruitment look like at Games Workshop?
It starts with understanding our people and culture. Understanding what a team really needs, what makes someone the right fit for a role, and how to ensure every candidate has a great experience along the way.
We’re looking for a Recruitment Partner who can play an important part in making that happen.
You will partner with staff across our manufacturing, distribution and site services areas, helping us find the people who keep these parts of our business moving. Your recruitment world could range from manufacturing and distribution roles through to site services such as security, bar and cleaning teams. You’ll build strong relationships with hiring managers, taking the time to understand what they need and why. You’ll bring your recruitment expertise to those conversations, helping shape briefs, challenging thinking where appropriate, and making sure everyone is clear about how we can work together to find the right people.
From there, you’ll own the recruitment journey. You’ll create engaging job adverts that reflect the Games Workshop culture, use job boards and direct sourcing to reach the right people, and manage candidates through the process. You’ll make sure their experience of Games Workshop is positive, whether they ultimately join us or not.
While some roles will be more straightforward to recruit for, every hire matters.
When we have a more critical or hard-to-fill vacancy, you’ll take the lead in planning the recruitment approach, using your knowledge of the market and different sourcing methods to reach the right people and fill roles at the right time.
There’s an important detail-oriented side to the role too. You’ll support temporary-to-permanent conversions, making sure the administration is completed accurately and Right to Work checks are carried out, recorded and kept up to date. You’ll keep our applicant tracking system and recruitment data accurate, helping us produce reliable reporting and making sure our processes work as they should.
We’re looking for someone with proven recruitment experience, ideally gained in-house, who knows what good recruitment looks like and has a track record of building strong relationships while still challenging when needed. You will have experience recruiting across different areas, be confident using a range of direct sourcing methods, and be comfortable managing the full recruitment lifecycle.
If you’re an experienced recruiter who enjoys getting close to the business, building genuine relationships and finding great people, we’d love to hear from you.
Working at Games Workshop
At Games Workshop we are looking for people who will do their best to understand the needs of the company and to put those needs first when they are at work.

The Warhammer World site is based just outside of Nottingham city centre and benefits from a nearby tram stop and free onsite car parking.
In return for your hard work, you will receive 33 days holiday per year (including public holidays), matching contributory pension scheme up to 7.5%, profit share bonus (subject to GW meeting profit targets) and option to join our Share Save scheme. Oh and let’s not forget, a staff discount of between 25% and 50% on our products!
