The Opportunity
We are one of the fastest-growing specialist recruitment agencies in the Finance and Accounting sector, and we are looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join our expanding team.
This is a genuine opportunity to build something — with the support, tools, and infrastructure to do it properly. We work with a broad range of businesses across the North West and wider UK, placing finance and accounting professionals at every level, from part-qualified and newly qualified accountants through to senior finance leaders and CFOs. We recruit across both permanent and temporary positions, so whether you have a background in perm, temp, or both, we want to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
1. Managing a full 360 recruitment desk across Finance and Accounting roles
2. Winning new clients through proactive business development, including outbound calling and booking face-to-face client visits
3. Building and sustaining strong, long-term relationships with both clients and candidates
4. Attending client and candidate meetings throughout the week, including on your work-from-home days — we are a relationship-driven business and face-to-face meetings are a core part of how we work
5. Developing a thorough understanding of your clients' hiring needs and business environments
6. Working collaboratively within a high-performing, supportive team
What We're Looking For
7. Proven experience as a recruitment consultant — Finance and Accounting sector experience is advantageous but not essential
8. A demonstrable track record of winning new business through business development activity
9. Confidence picking up the phone, booking meetings, and getting in front of decision makers
10. The drive and resilience to build and grow a desk in a competitive market
11. Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
12. Experience in either temporary, permanent, or both types of recruitment is welcome
What's On Offer
13. A market-leading commission scheme with earnings potential up to 30%
14. Hybrid working — three days in the office and two days from home each week
15. Access to a wide range of recruitment tools to support your desk
16. An in-house trainer dedicated to your ongoing development and career progression
17. A fast-growing business where your contribution is genuinely recognised
If you are an ambitious recruitment consultant ready to take the next step with a business that is going places, we would love to talk.
