Senior Recruitment Consultant - Healthcare Division in Warrington

Senior Recruitment Consultant — Healthcare

Levicare | Warrington (hybrid) | £35,000–£40,000 basic + uncapped commission | Clear path to Divisional Lead (£45,000+ base) within 6 months

About us

Levicare1 is the newly launched permanent recruitment division of Levicare Group, sister company to Levicare Limited — an established healthcare staffing business supplying nurses and healthcare assistants to care homes and healthcare providers since 2018. We're backed by an existing client base, a proven back-office infrastructure, and a clear growth plan. What we're looking for is someone hungry enough to take it further than a normal desk.

The opportunity

We're not looking for someone to manage what already exists. We're looking for someone who wants to build a desk fast, prove it, and grow into leading the division — with a genuine, structured path to step up to Divisional Lead within six months for the right person.

This isn't a role for someone who wants the title handed to them. It's for someone who wants to earn it by billing hard, showing real ownership, and demonstrating they can grow not just their own numbers but a team's. If that's you, the ceiling here is significantly higher than a standard senior consultant role — and so is the reward.

What you'll be doing from day one

• Winning and closing permanent placements: registered nurses, senior healthcare assistants, and clinical/managerial roles (registered managers, clinical leads, deputy managers)

• Converting Levicare’s existing care home and healthcare provider relationships into permanent recruitment instructions, and building new relationships beyond our existing network

• Running the full desk: briefing, sourcing strategy, shortlisting, interview coordination, offer management

• Negotiating fee structures, with a clear steer toward retained and part-retained agreements on senior and hard-to-fill roles

• Working alongside a Recruitment Consultant — showing early leadership by helping them ramp up, not just protecting your own pipeline

The path to Divisional Lead

At the 6-month mark, we'll review against two things — not time served, but real evidence:

1. You've hit your individual billing target

2. You've shown genuine ownership — helping develop the Recruitment Consultant's pipeline, owning client relationships end-to-end, and contributing real commercial thinking, not just closing your own deals

Hit both, and you step up to Divisional Lead: base rises to £45,000+, a override on the Recruitment Consultant's billing kicks in (so developing them pays you directly), plus a division performance bonus tied to overall EBITDA. Don't hit it, and you keep building — the offer isn't a one-shot deadline, it's a standing target.

What's already in place to support you

• Dedicated sourcing support — a candidate researcher focused on building your shortlists

• Dedicated compliance and admin support — contracts, invoicing, and compliance paperwork handled for you

• A configured ATS/CRM, LinkedIn Recruiter licence, and job board access from day one

• REC membership, professional indemnity and employer's liability cover already in place

• A warm client base via Levicare Ltd to open doors that a cold desk never gets

What we're looking for

• Proven billing ability in healthcare, care, or a closely related recruitment sector — we want someone who can bill from month one

• Hungry, not comfortable — someone who wants to grow a desk fast and is motivated by a real leadership target, not just a monthly number

• Comfortable owning commercial conversations, including pushing clients toward retained fee structures

• No prior management experience required — but the instinct to help others succeed, not just protect your own numbers, matters more than a job title on your CV

• Self-starting — this is a new desk within a small, agile group, not a corporate structure with layers of process

What's on offer

• £35,000–£40,000 basic salary, depending on experience

• Uncapped commission from day one, with accelerators for over-target performance

• A clear, structured path to Divisional Lead at the 6-month mark — base £45,000+, override on your consultant's billing, and a division EBITDA bonus on top

• Realistic first-year OTE £65,000–£90,000+ as Senior Consultant, rising further once promoted

• A genuine ground-floor opportunity in a new division backed by an established, trading group

• Full sourcing and compliance support from day one — you focus on billing and building, not admin

How to apply

Send your CV and a short note on your billing history to sohail@levicare.co.uk — tell us about the fastest you've ever grown a desk or a client relationship from nothing, and what you'd do to grow this one. We'd rather hear one good story about momentum than a bullet-point list of duties.
