Package: £30 - £32k Basic + Uncapped Commission up to 60%

Are you a recruiter with 1 – 2 years of experience looking for a new challenge?

Well look no further as this is not an opportunity to be missed.

The Role:

My client are looking for recruiters within the first 2 years of their recruitment career who have learnt the ropes when it comes to communicating on both candidate and client level and have exemplified the foundations of a successful recruiter.

Stepping in at a Senior Level in the business, you will be tasked and supported with the aim of building out a new desk in a niche market.

Markets they have already engaged with include Animal Health, Chemical Consumer Goods, and Finished Beverages.

Markets that have soared past the billions in terms of current valuations.

This coupled with lesser competition, the scope for earning potential is huge.

The desk will of course be cold, however the first few months will be candidate led.

Here you will develop a strong network and pool of connections through LinkedIn and various sourcing methods.

To compensate for this period of network development you won’t be targeted for your first 3 months, allowing you to really understand and enhance market knowledge.

The Company:

My client is a UK multi-sector leading Executive Search firm.

At 5 years old, the company have excelled in a short period now moving to a larger office location to support their growth.

They have become industry experts at building out desks in niche markets.

So why join them?

You would have exposure training from half a million-pound billers who have mastered the art of selling retained roles.

The support structure within this business is unrivalled.

You will work in tandem with one of the top performers, having regular catch-ups discussing how best to approach candidates in the specific market as well as how to sell in candidates.

The Benefits:

  • Big average fee sizes (£20k)
  • Commission structure up to 60%
  • Progression pathway with transparent targets
  • Free private healthcare
  • 24 hour Gym access (in office building)
  • Champions League for top billers
  • Bonus for top 3 billers
  • Activities/lunch clubs for everyone if team hits target

The Requirements:

  • 1 - 2 years Recruitment Experience
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Competitive nature
  • Ambitious with clear career goals
  • Highly organised

No candidate will meet every single desired qualification.
