Senior Recruitment Consultant (Finance)

In exclusive partnership with an award-winning Finance recruitment business.

Competitive base + industry-leading commission (up to 40% of total billings).

If you've ever wondered what recruitment looks like without the corporate noise, the layers of management, the culture posters nobody lives by, this is it. RECSEEKERS is working in exclusive partnership to appoint an experienced Finance recruiter into a business that’s been doing things differently for over twenty years. Founded in 2003, still privately owned, still self-financed, still run by people who care more about doing recruitment well than hitting numbers for someone else’s shareholders. That matters, because it means the culture you’re joining is the actual culture, not a version dressed up for investors.

You’d be stepping into a genuinely established Finance desk, 20+ years connecting accountancy and finance professionals with some of the UK’s most dynamic businesses, from ambitious SMEs to listed blue-chips across Commerce, Financial Services and Private Equity. Over 300 active clients and a reputation built on relationships, not volume. This isn’t a desk you’re building from cold, it’s one you’re stepping into with real weight behind it.

Here’s what actually makes this worth clicking on: the comp plan pays up to 40% of your total billings through a 6-monthly top-up bonus, on top of your standard commission. What you bill is what you keep, no smoke and mirrors. And the autonomy is real, not a line in a job ad.

Consultants here run their own targets, their own activity, their own patch, trusted to manage themselves like adults, not managed within an inch of their life.

The role:

• Step into an established Finance desk with 20+ years of market reputation behind it, across Commerce, Financial Services and Private Equity.
• Up to 40% of your total billings through a 6-monthly top-up bonus, fully meritocratic, clear thresholds.
• Genuine autonomy over your sector, your clients, your relationships, built on 4 Pillars of Ownership rather than management for the sake of it.
• Extra cash incentives for billing £100k in any rolling 6-month period.
• A defined path to leadership or continued high billing, whichever direction you want your career to go.
• For exceptional performers, real conversations about equity and a genuine seat at the table.
• A visible, hands-on leadership team who share strategy honestly rather than managing from a distance.

Who we're looking for:

Experienced 360 recruiters with genuine market knowledge and relationships already built. This suits people who want to be paid for what they deliver, not time served, who thrive with real autonomy rather than needing to be micromanaged, and who want an actual hand in shaping where the business goes next. If you’re looking for a low-BD role or a big guaranteed base regardless of performance, this isn’t it.

If you’re ready for a business that’s established enough to be credible and still growing enough that what you do there genuinely moves the needle, we’d welcome a confidential conversation.
