Senior Recruitment Consultant - Take Your UK Success into Europe (DACH Region)
Are you a high-performing UK IT, Tech or Engineering recruiter?
Consistently billing? Comfortable running a full 360 desk?
What if you could take the exact same skills - BD, candidate networking, deal negotiation - and apply them in a market with higher fees, less saturation, and bigger earning potential?
We've launched a new European / DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) business unit, built on 25 years of UK engineering recruitment success. Now we're looking for ambitious UK recruiters ready to scale their earnings by expanding into Europe.
Why Europe? Why Now?
The DACH region offers:
Strong industrial and technology economies
Skills-short markets with high demand for engineering and tech talent
Higher average salaries - meaning higher placement fees
Long-term client relationships and project-driven hiringIf you can sell into the UK engineering or tech market, you can sell into Europe. The fundamentals are identical:
Market mapping
Cold outreach & relationship building
Vacancy qualification
Candidate control
Offer negotiation
Account growthSame skills. Bigger opportunity.
The Role
As a Senior or Principal Consultant, you'll:
Generate new business and build long-term client partnerships
Manage the full 360 recruitment lifecycle
Build and own a high-value candidate network
Cross-sell wider project solutions
Drive your own desk revenue with full ownership and autonomy
Join an experienced team building our new European business unit
Use our 25-year UK track record to win trust in the European market
