About the Role

Why This Role Stands Out

If you’re looking for a high-earning, fast-paced career where your progression is entirely in your control, this is it.

You’ll join a rapidly growing recruitment business where consultants are hitting £45k+ in their first year, with clear, structured progression and hands-on training from day one.

Salary & Commission

  • £24,000-£27,000 base salary

  • Uncapped commission (no threshold)

  • Realistic £35k–£45k OTE in year one

Progression

  • Promotion to Recruitment Consultant: 6–9 months

  • Senior Consultant: 12–18 months

  • Management opportunities within 2–3 years

Your progression is performance-based, no office politics, no glass ceiling.

What You’ll Be Doing

This is a sales-driven role where you’ll build your own client base and earn commission from day one.

  • Speaking to candidates daily via phone, email, and LinkedIn

  • Building relationships with clients and winning new business

  • Managing the full recruitment process from start to finish

  • Negotiating offers and closing deals

  • Becoming a specialist in your market

What We’re Looking For

This isn’t about experience, it’s about attitude.

We’re looking for people who are:

  • Competitive (sports, sales, targets, or similar)

  • Confident communicating with new people every day

  • Resilient, you won’t take rejection personally

  • Ambitious and motivated by earning potential

What You’ll Get

  • Structured training programme from industry leaders

  • Regular incentives (holidays, lunch clubs, bonuses)

  • Supportive, high-energy team environment

  • Clear path to management

The Reality

This is a fast-paced, target-driven role. It’s not easy, but for the right person, it’s incredibly rewarding both financially and professionally.

Immediate interviews available.
