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

· 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)

If you’re someone who takes pride in getting the detail right, enjoys working with people, and wants to build a career within recruitment—this is a strong opportunity to join a business that’s growing and making a real impact in the social work sector.
