The Opportunity

Our client is a profitable, multi-office recruitment group with a national footprint and a strong reputation in its markets.

They are now making a serious, fully funded investment in the North.

A new regional operation is being built under a leader with a proven track record of launching and scaling successful recruitment businesses in the region.

At Principal level this is a career-defining move.

You will take a lead role on a key desk within the construction and built environment sector, with the scope to shape the market approach, mentor the recruiters coming in behind you and put your stamp on a business at the very start of its growth curve.

With further divisions launching over the next twelve months and leadership opportunities emerging as the operation scales, the ceiling here is set by you.

Who They Want

A senior, big-billing recruiter who wants influence as well as earnings.

Your agency background genuinely does not matter.

Large corporate, independent boutique or anything in between, it all comes down to the individual.

  • A strong and consistent billing history at senior level.
  • Sales orientated with a strong work ethic and a self-starting attitude.
  • The presence to win clients, develop markets and mentor less experienced colleagues.
  • Experience within construction, built environment or a related technical market is ideal, though strong recruiters from other sectors will be considered.
  • The Package
  • Car allowance in line with seniority.
  • Uncapped commission paid from £0 billed, with no threshold to clear before you earn.
  • Flexible, trust-based approach to hybrid working, judged on outputs rather than inputs.
  • Leadership opportunities as the business grows, for those who want them.
  • The Culture

A business that values honesty, integrity and camaraderie.

You will be trusted to do the job you are paid to do, balanced with time together as a team to build something properly.

Client visits, site meetings and a sociable office environment are all part of the picture.

All applications are handled in the strictest confidence.
