Recruitment Consultant

As an ambitious, growing company, we are seeking a Recruitment Consultant to be part of our success story. However, it takes a special someone to join our team; here is what we are looking for.

We are only interested in people with a background in sales, who have a desire to succeed, those who are always willing to ‘go the extra mile’. People who enjoy getting to know new people – it is critical in our business that you are able to build good relationships and enjoy getting to know our customers.

To be a successful Recruitment Consultant you will need to be resourceful, pro‑active, use your initiative and be naturally curious. When you first join us, you will be on a steep learning curve so being passionate for success and the ability to work well under pressure matters.

As a business, our priorities are being customer focused, committed to quality and continuous improvement. In this fast-paced environment, no two days are the same, so to be successful you will need to be able to plan thoroughly, meet tight deadlines and work in a highly competitive environment, as well as dealing with anything else that unexpectedly happens in your working day.

A typical day as a Recruitment Consultant includes activities such as:

• Visiting clients, developing a good understanding of their industry, what they do and their structure, work culture and environment.
• Targeting new business development opportunities.
• Implementing sales and marketing techniques to proactively grow your client base.
• Reviewing applications, screening interviews and short‑listing candidates for appropriate vacancies.
• Advising and updating candidates' CVs.
• Briefing candidates about each role, the career path, remuneration and benefits of the job in question.
• Preparing CVs and correspondence for clients in respect of suitable applicants.

You’ll be encouraged to participate in other business projects, which will contribute to your professional and personal development.
