What We’re Looking For
We are looking for a self-starter who is commercially driven, proactive and willing to put substantial time and effort into building a successful desk and attracting new clients.
This is not a role for someone who only wants to manage incoming vacancies. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable with proactive business development, identifying opportunities, making new connections and consistently investing in the growth of their client network.
We want someone who is ambitious and sees the opportunity to either:
- Build and develop a specialist recruitment division around their own strengths and market, or
- Play a key role in growing and strengthening our existing teams and business areas.
The ideal candidate will be entrepreneurial in mindset, resilient, confident approaching new clients and motivated by the opportunity to have a genuine impact on the direction and success of the business.
