Nottingham Trent University’s recruitment model

NTU operates a devolved recruitment model with departmental HR Business Partners (HRBPs) supporting Line Managers to raise their own requisitions, post jobs adverts and conduct their own screening. Offer and contract generation is also devolved to HRBPs. Recruitment strategy and ATS system governance/management sit centrally with a Resourcing Manager and HR Systems Manager respectively.
