This is a true billing-first position, offering immediate access to an active, high-value desk with strong foundations and clear headroom for growth.

The Opportunity

  • You’ll take ownership of a 360 contract desk with a well-established client base, while driving strategic expansion across the Benelux and Nordic markets.

What You’ll Be Working With

  • Live, high-value mandates across energy and decarbonisation, including major hydrogen projects.
  • Established PSL agreements with key market players.
  • Warm client relationships ready for re-engagement and growth.
  • Delivery support from junior consultants, with scope to mentor and shape the team.

Your Role

  • Own and scale a high-performing contract desk within a specialist vertical.
  • Re-engage and expand existing client relationships while developing new business across target regions.
  • Lead from the front on billing, setting the standard for performance and output.
  • Mentor and develop junior consultants, contributing to overall desk growth.

Who This Suits

  • Proven billers operating at Senior/Principal level within recruitment.
  • Strong track record in contract recruitment and business development.
  • Experience within energy, engineering, or a related technical market.
  • Individuals motivated by high performance, autonomy, and long-term earning potential.

What’s on Offer

  • High-earning, uncapped commission structure aligned to senior billing performance.
  • Immediate access to a live, revenue-generating desk.
  • Clear pathway into leadership (if desired), with no pressure to move away from billing.
  • Backing of a global platform with established infrastructure and market reputation.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a desk with real traction, strong market positioning, and the autonomy to scale it further.
