Branch Manager – Southampton Up to £50,000 base car/car allowance uncapped commission Wisdom Rec2Rec have partnered with this independently owned, multi-branch recruitment business for many years, and it’s always a pleasure to work with them. They are highly successful, well established, and offer a supportive, rewarding environment without the red tape of a corporate. Our client is now looking for a sales-focused Branch Manager to lead and grow their Southampton office. This is a fantastic opportunity: the branch is already performing well, but there’s plenty of scope for the right person to put their stamp on it, re-engage lapsed clients, expand the permanent side of the business, and develop the existing team of three. Like all recruitment roles, this is of course a billing position, although you won’t be carrying a personal budget. The focus is on nurturing the team, driving sales, bringing in new and lapsed business, and helping the consultants in the branch to succeed. The branch is currently very temps-oriented, but this would suit someone from either a temps or perms background with the appetite to broaden and grow the offering. For the right individual, there’s also the possibility of progressing to Area Manager, with responsibility for additional branches. What our client is looking for: Proven recruitment experience (essential) Ideally industrial, driving, or logistics sector knowledge Strong sales and business development skills Experience managing and motivating a team Ambition, resilience, and commercial drive What’s on offer: Up to £50,000 base salary Car or car allowance Uncapped commission and bonuses Extra holidays and prizes for hitting special targets Holiday entitlement that increases with service Team away days and nights out Long service awards Flexible working opportunities Ongoing personal and professional development Equity opportunities – with the chance to become a Partner in the business A relaxed, supportive culture where success is recognised Our client values ambition, sales ability, and leadership. This is an excellent opportunity for a senior recruiter looking for the next step, or a Branch Manager who feels held back in their current company. * Wisdom Recruitment acting as an employment agency with regard to this vacancy.
