O'Neill & Brennan is one of the UK and Ireland's leading construction service providers, turning over £100m+ across 14 offices. Best known for Labour, Trades and Logistics, but our White-Collar recruitment division has always punched above its weight - and we're now looking for a senior recruitment leader to take our Rail & Civils recruitment and account management offering to the next level.
This is a senior, P&L-owning leadership role - we're looking for someone already operating at Associate Director / Head of Division level (or very close to it), with a minimum of 8+ years' recruitment experience and a track record of building and running a desk or division, not just billing on one. If you haven't yet led a team or owned a P&L, this one isn't for you - but we'd still love to hear from you for other opportunities as they come up.
What you'll be doing:
- Owning the strategy and growth of our Rail & Civils recruitment services, Blue & White Collar
- Holding full commercial and P&L responsibility for the division
- Managing and growing key client accounts - building senior relationships with Tier 1 clients and PSL stakeholders
- Leading, mentoring and scaling a high-performing recruitment team
What you'll bring:
- A strong, established network across UK rail and infrastructure
- Proven P&L management and business development at a senior level
- A track record of building teams and winning client relationships from scratch
- PTS knowledge is a bonus, not a requirement
What's on offer:
- Competitive salary, bonus and benefits
- Genuine autonomy to shape and grow the division, and a seat at the table in a business that's serious about backing its leaders.
