About the company
We work with construction professionals considering their next career move and who want to make the most informed decision – now and for the entirety of their careers. Having been established for over 15 years, we have built a solid foundation in our sector and have one of the most credible reputations in the industry, an excellent staff base of skilled consultants and a vibrant, professional and exciting working environment.
We believe one of the reasons we have been so successful is that we know our industries inside and out. Our team has a background in construction, civil engineering and consultancy. We talk our client’s language.
You can also be confident that we do things right. Some recruitment agencies give our sector a bad name – through lazy work, being volume driven and relying on short-term thinking. You won’t find any of that at Cityscape Recruitment. We expect high standards and transparency, and we value and reward our people for delivering against that vision.
At Cityscape, the environment is energetic, fast-paced, fun and filled with success. We have a proven history of developing trainees into the best consultants in their field – each team member is given encouragement, support and, most importantly, the opportunities to progress. They are also rewarded for their achievements. We ensure that we all work hard so that we can reap the rewards and enjoyment that come with the resulting successes. The most enjoyable part of this business is watching the progression of junior employees climbing the ranks, becoming experts in their field and seeing how this impacts them both as people and in their lives outside of work due to the significant increases in earnings they achieve.
About the role
We currently have a vacancy for a senior consultant to join our established and successful team to focus on board-level and executive appointments in the construction and property sector. This opportunity will provide you with the platform to help you develop a section of the business with as much support as required balanced with a good level of autonomy. You will focus on building relationships with business owners and board-level executives to assist in their recruitment for executive-level appointments.

You will benefit from an established client base with multiple organisations across different sectors. This opportunity has the potential to provide great success for the right person who is keen to work hard towards achieving it.
Rewards and Benefits

To put it simply, we know that our employees are the foundation of our business. We make it our responsibility to ensure that this foundation is looked after.
We are lucky to own a beautiful, regency period office in the heart of Rickmansworth and the atmosphere is always very positive. We ensure that the team is regularly letting their hair down with regular afternoon and evening social events for the whole company as well as individual and team incentives rewarded in many exciting ways!
Remuneration will be extremely generous. We base salaries on the experience and abilities of each professional but offer beyond the typical level in the industry. You can expect a basic salary from £30,000 to £40,000. You will also receive a commission on all placements, increasing yearly earnings significantly.
