Job Description

My client, a specialist recruitment company based in Canterbury are looking to hire several Recruitment Consultants. They will look at trainees and also Recruitment Consultants looking for a new opportunity.

This position is Hybrid with 3 days in the office (which will decrease to 2 over time once promoted in future)

The position is accessible by train too so you don't need a driving licence to apply.

Responsibilities

  • Candidate screening calls and interviews
  • Job posting and writing adverts and LinkedIn posts to attract candidates
  • Database searches and job board searches for suitable candidates

  • New business development and securing new clients for the agency including outreach to new clients and negotiating terms of business and rates with them.

Background and Experience

  • They will hire people with Recruitment experience as Consultants all the way up to Associate Director levels.
  • If you have a background in recruitment ideally you will have done permanent recruitment or worked on contract within a professional environment (head office roles and white collar roles) This isn't essential however.
  • You might also have a background in customer services, working in a call centre, or have working in an administration role with a high level of outbound calls, perhaps you worked in an insurance background, or a B2B sales background. Ideally if you haven't worked in recruitment you will have a strong background in roles that are very call focussed, and be very confident to pick up the phone to new people.
  • Hard working and really motivated to earn a lot of money
  • Someone whom wants to work at their highest capacity and be promoted ASAP
  • You need to enjoy motivating yourself to hit goals and reach the next targets and promotion criteria etc.
  • Understand that there are times you will need to work outside of hours, for example, if an urgent assignment comes in from a client, or if an amazing candidate can only speak after work.

Selling Points

  • Uncapped commission no threshold or desk fees
  • You will earn 10%to 40% in commission on the deal value of every person you place. E.g. if you placed two people in one month and the company earned £30,000 for this business, you would take 40% of this as commission. So this is a very high-earning role.
  • Recruitment Consultants in this business progress and earn well
  • You will receive a structured training programme at all levels to help you hit your targets and your next promotion criteria.
