About Sheldon Phillips

Sheldon Phillips is a specialist recruitment agency operating within the social work sector. We partner with Local Authorities, Independent Fostering Agencies, Charities, and private organisations across the UK, delivering high-quality, compliant professionals into critical services.

Our reputation is built on reliability, compliance, and strong relationships – this role sits right at the heart of that.

The Role

As a Compliance Officer, you will play a central role in managing contractor compliance, supporting consultants, and ensuring smooth onboarding and payroll processes. You’ll be dealing with both systems and people – so attention to detail and strong communication are equally important.

Key Responsibilities

  • Managing and processing candidate applications across multiple client portals
  • Supporting Recruitment Consultants to ensure a seamless onboarding journey
  • Chasing, verifying, and managing contractor timesheets to ensure accurate and timely payment
  • Building relationships with contractors through regular check-ins, ensuring satisfaction and retention
  • Gathering references and maintaining accurate compliance records
  • Preparing and processing documentation in line with framework and audit requirements
  • Ensuring all compliance standards and deadlines are consistently met

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong organisational skills with high attention to detail
  • Confident communicator, both written and verbal
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to take ownership of tasks
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Comfortable working with systems, processes, and deadlines
  • Previous recruitment or compliance experience is beneficial, but not essential

What You’ll Get

  • Competitive base salary with performance-based incentives
  • Clear training and development pathway within recruitment
  • A supportive, team-driven environment
  • Flexible working options post-probation
  • Monthly incentives and team rewards
  • Relaxed, positive office culture (including Dress Down Fridays)
