You'll research the market, approach potential candidates, understand their experience and career goals, and manage them through interviews, offers and starting their new job. You won't be responsible for winning new clients. Your focus is finding the right people for existing vacancies, with the opportunity to progress into complete management of client accounts.

What the work involves A client might need someone to build an AI product or automate a business process. You'll learn what that person needs to be able to do, where to find them and how to work out whether the opportunity is right for them. That means more than typing a job title into LinkedIn.

Who this will suit You like working things out. You can organise your day, keep track of detail and follow something through without being chased. When an approach does not work, you want to understand why and try something better. You're comfortable talking to new people and asking questions. You also want clear targets and a career where good results can increase what you earn. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room or come from a sales background. You do need to be curious, reliable, commercially motivated and willing to apply feedback. There is no specific degree requirement. Training and progression You'll get structured training in recruitment, sourcing, sales and negotiation, alongside daily coaching from founders who still recruit. You'll learn the AI and automation market, how to assess candidates and how to manage a recruitment process properly. As you become an effective delivery consultant, there is a route into account management. That means taking full responsibility for assigned client accounts, managing relationships, understanding hiring needs and overseeing delivery.

Work on hiring projects for UK and international AI and automation companies. Working at Edge Tech We're a small team at Pury Hill Business Park. You'll work directly with the founders, get honest feedback and see the effect of your contribution. The atmosphere is informal; the expectations are clear. You can ask questions, get help and learn from genuine mistakes. You'll also be expected to follow through, take responsibility and do useful work rather than simply look busy. This is a full-time, office-based role. You'll need a reliable way to commute to Silverstone Park. The honest bit This is not a quiet research job with the occasional email. You'll spend a meaningful part of your day speaking to candidates, following up and moving live vacancies forward. People do not always reply, some turn down opportunities and some change their minds. You do not need cold-call sales experience. You do need persistence, judgement and the willingness to pick up the phone. How to apply Apply with your CV or a short summary of your experience. Include an example of a time you researched a problem, changed your approach or took responsibility for getting a result. It can come from work, education or a personal project. The interview includes a short practical search exercise. We'll explain the basics first, so no recruitment knowledge is needed beforehand. Let us know if you need any adjustments to the application or interview process.
