We’re hiring a Director to join a fast-growing, privately funded recruitment group with ambitious expansion plans. You’ll be at the helm of four high-performing recruitment brands, each with their own specialist niche: Sales, Technology, Legal, and Energy – covering both contract and permanent markets.

This is a unique opportunity to help shape and scale a multi-brand business that’s already well-capitalised, with significant backing in place and a clear roadmap for growth.

  • Driving performance across contract and perm desks, ensuring high delivery standards across all markets
  • Working closely with the owners and investors to report on performance, set targets, and drive accountability
  • Building out internal infrastructure and best practices to support rapid growth
  • Playing a key role in hiring, onboarding, and developing new team members
  • Supporting marketing, ops and back-office functions in driving brand visibility and commercial success

✅ What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in a senior recruitment leadership role (multi-brand or multi-sector experience preferred)
  • Strong understanding of both contract and permanent recruitment across commercial or technical markets
  • A hands-on leader who enjoys developing people and building a winning culture
  • Track record of scaling teams and growing revenue in a fast-paced environment
  • Commercially minded with a sharp focus on performance, delivery, and profitability
  • Comfortable working closely with investors and senior stakeholders

💼 What’s on Offer

  • Salary: £85,000 – £110,000 depending on experience
  • Bonus scheme linked to team performance and growth
  • Equity options in a growing, privately-backed group
  • Huge opportunity to shape the future of four ambitious recruitment brands
  • Clear path to C-suite leadership as the group continues to expand
  • Hybrid working model with autonomy and flexibility
