This is a growth-focused 360 recruitment role in the construction sector, suited to someone who has done recruitment before and now wants the space to build properly.
The brief is simple: generate new business, win clients and grow revenue. This is not a warm-desk maintenance role. The successful person will be expected to show initiative, open doors and build their own client base, with support around them when needed.
Key Responsibilities

* Build and manage a client portfolio from scratch.
* Run the full 360 recruitment lifecycle.
* Identify commercial opportunities and act on them quickly.
* Work with internal support to fulfil roles and deliver for clients.
* Build a consistent pipeline and revenue stream for the Colchester office.
Candidate Profile
* Previous experience in a 360 recruitment role.
* Likely to suit someone raw, hungry and on the way up rather than a finished article.
* Confident with business development and outbound activity.
* High-agency, self-starting and comfortable working without heavy hand-holding.
* Commercial, resilient and target-driven.
* Wants a role where commission can materially increase earnings.
Why Join
* Clear opportunity to build something and make an impact.
* Strong commission potential.
* Supportive environment without heavy micromanagement.
* Direct contribution to the growth of the Colchester office.
