Recruitment business consultant

Self-employed opportunity for experienced recruiters | Remote, home-based.

Please DO NOT APPLY if you don't have Recruitment New Business experience.

TPJ Recruit is expanding and seeking motivated, results-driven New Business Recruitment Consultants to join our growing team. This is a self-employed opportunity for an experienced recruiter who can win new clients, build lasting relationships and deliver permanent recruitment placements across Logistics, Transport and Driving, or other sectors where you can demonstrate strong success.

You will manage the full 360 recruitment process, from securing new business and understanding client requirements through to sourcing, screening, interviewing and placing candidates. You will be expected to develop a deep understanding of each client's business, identify opportunities and maintain excellent service standards throughout the recruitment cycle.

This role is best suited to a disciplined, commercially focused recruiter who is confident working independently from home, can generate new business consistently and wants the flexibility and earning potential of a self-employed model.

Location: Remote, home-based

Self-employed for the first 6 months* of service

Commission: 50% of everything you bill during the self-employed period

Successful new-business winners with permanent placements from other sectors will be welcomed.

What we offer:

• Opportunity to retain a higher percentage of billings than in a traditional employed recruitment role.
• During the initial self-employed period, you earn 50% of everything you bill.

How it works:

For example, if your current employed recruiter role pays £30,000 basic salary plus 10% commission, billing £100,000 per year would generate approximately £40,000 in annual earnings. By contrast, billing £100,000 per year with TPJ Recruit on a 50% commission basis would generate approximately £50,000 in annual earnings, giving you a clear opportunity to increase your income while building something for yourself.

Work in any permanent recruitment sector where you have proven experience, strong market knowledge and the confidence to generate new business. Join a business that values experienced, driven recruiters who can demonstrate a professional, disciplined and success-fueled work ethic.

Focus on winning clients and making placements while we support back-office administration, including payroll and invoice chasing, etc.

Flexibility to suit your lifestyle:

As a self-employed consultant, you can choose your own hours and work from home. This opportunity is ideal for someone who values flexibility, can stay productive without daily office supervision and is motivated by uncapped earning potential.

Uncapped and directly linked to your dedication, activity and billing performance.

Main duties and responsibilities:

• Source and secure new clients with the potential for multiple or frequent permanent placements.
• Liaise with clients regularly to understand their recruitment needs and prioritise your activity.
• Maintain and develop client relationships to deliver excellent service and maximise future business opportunities.
• Support the wider team by sharing market insight and identifying opportunities to generate revenue.
• Manage the recruitment process from start to finish for both clients and candidates.
• Manage placed candidates contracts and support the ongoing progression of live placements.
• Keep accurate records in line with recruitment legislation and company processes.
• Maintain accurate paperwork, system notes and CRM records, including candidate right-to-work information.

You will therefore need access to a reliable car.
