US Recruitment Director

We’re looking for an experienced US Contract Recruiter who wants to build something rather than inherit something.

The opportunity is to take full ownership of launching a US contract division within one of the following markets:

You’ll have the backing, freedom and resources to build the division your way — including developing the client base, building your own team and setting the direction of the business.

This is a genuine opportunity for someone who wants to move beyond running a desk and have a much bigger stake in what they build.

The role

You’ll be responsible for building the US contract division from the ground up.

That means:

• Developing and winning new US clients
• Building and managing your own contractor network
• Establishing the contract recruitment operation
• Deciding where and how to grow the market
• Building a team around you
• Managing and developing consultants
• Taking ownership of revenue and growth
• Helping shape the wider US strategy

You’ll have a bespoke commission structure, uncapped earning potential and genuine autonomy over how you build the business.

The person

We’re specifically looking for someone with proven US contract recruitment experience.

You’ll ideally have a strong background recruiting into:

• Construction
• Civil Engineering
• Infrastructure

You don't need to have built an entire division before, but you do need to understand the US contract market, know how to win business and have the ambition to build a team around you.

We're interested in people who are commercially minded, entrepreneurial and want more responsibility than a standard recruitment management role offers.

Where this can go

For the right person, this isn't simply a job with a bigger title.

There is a genuine opportunity to progress into a Board-level position and have shares in the business as the division develops.

You’ll have a direct influence on the direction of the US operation and the opportunity to build a team and revenue stream that you ultimately have a stake in.

Package

• Market-leading basic salary
• Uncapped earning potential
• Bespoke commission structure
• Full ownership of building the division
• Full ownership of building your team
• Share opportunity
