Job Description

Want To Move Into Recruitment But Not Sure Where To Start?

Are you currently working in sales, events, hospitality, luxury retail, business development or another commercial customer facing role?

Are you ambitious, confident speaking to people and ready to build a proper long term career?

We are working with a fast growing executive search firm in Central London that is looking to hire ambitious people into Associate Recruiter roles.

This is an entry level opportunity for someone looking to move into recruitment.

You do not need recruitment experience.

You do not need a legal background.

You do need drive, resilience, confidence and a strong reason to want more for yourself.

The Role

You will join as an Associate Recruiter and receive full training in executive search.

You will work closely with experienced recruiters and senior leaders, learning how to identify, approach and manage high quality candidates within a specialist professional market.

This is a research and candidate focused role to begin with, with clear progression into a full recruitment position.

You will be joining a high performance environment where you will learn directly from people already succeeding in the market.

What You Will Be Doing

• Identifying and approaching candidates

• Building talent pools and market maps

• Speaking with senior professionals

• Supporting experienced recruiters on live searches

• Learning how to manage candidates through interview processes

• Developing strong market knowledge

• Building relationships with candidates

• Progressing towards running your own desk

• Learning how to operate in a specialist executive search market

We Are Looking For Someone Who Is

• Ambitious

• Confident on the phone

• Commercially minded

• Money motivated

• Resilient

• Competitive

• Personable

• Emotionally intelligent

• Hungry to learn

• Serious about building a career

• Comfortable working in a fast paced office environment

• Motivated by progression and earning potential

Recruitment is a brilliant career, but only if you are willing to graft. If you want comfort, this is probably not it. If you want progression, earnings and a serious career path, keep reading.

What Is On Offer

• Luxury London based office

• £27,000 base salary

• Expected first year OTE of £40,000 to £60,000 depending on performance

• Opportunity to exceed this, with examples of first year consultants earning £70,000 to £80,000

• Commission structure

• Full training and development

• Clear career progression

• High performance team environment

• Incentives and rewards

• Private healthcare after probation

• Pension contribution

• Social events

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

You will be joining a growing executive search business with a clear progression structure and a strong training programme.

The company has a track record of developing people from entry level into successful recruiters.

You will be surrounded by ambitious people, working in a specialist market with strong earning potential and genuine long term career progression.

This is a strong opportunity for someone who has already proven they can work hard in a commercial environment and now wants to move into a career with better progression and higher long term earning potential.
