THE REALITY

The recruitment industry is flooded with AI.

Very few are using it properly.

Right now, most recruitment businesses are stuck somewhere between:

    • Testing AI tools like ChatGPT with no clear strategy
    • Recruiters using AI inconsistently — or not at all
    • Manual processes slowing down candidate flow
    • Systems that don’t talk to each other (ATS, CRM, job boards, email)

Meanwhile, a VERY small number of firms are quietly building faster, more efficient, AI-enabled recruitment businesses.

The Opportunity

What if solving this was simple — and Government funded?

In-House person. Real ownership. Immediate impact.

 You don’t need to:

  • Hire an expensive AI or automation specialist
  • Rely on external consultants
  • Spend months figuring this out internally

Instead…

You can take a person, or people, you already trust in your business — and give them the capability to:

  • Automate recruiter workflows
  • Connect your systems
  • Apply AI properly across your team

All through a Levy funded programme worth £18,000.

THE SOLUTION

This is not theoretical. It’s practical, applied, and built around your recruitment workflows.

This programme turns your people into your:

  • AI & automation specialists
