Due to company success, we are growing both our permanent and contract team. We always want to promote from within and therefore want to speak to driven consultants with a can do attitude and a good work ethic.

The way we work... each consultant has their own target market to focus on and build a business within, therefore each day working towards a goal and not just 'another day on the phone'. If you are looking for the best financial reward possible then running a targeted 360 desk is the only way forward. You are in control of the full recruitment process from getting the client on board through to placing the happy candidate in their new role therefore receiving the full commission and not reliant on anyone else in the team to be 'as good as you'. Our consultants describe this as running their own little business without the loneliness and with the support of a team and larger company.

Training & progression... We offer a structured training programme tailored for you by your manager/ team leader and delivered by a specific coach so ensure you are always learning and developing. Once you've proven yourself as a successful consultant, you will receive training on making the step up to a team leader and then again when promoted to manager.

Targets... It's important that you feel they're achievable and therefore we ask you to help set them! We will support and guide you throughout the planning and target process but we're a business, not a crèche so like to ensure we're all working in a professional manner. When we say it's like running your own business, we mean it!

In return you will receive a competitive salary along with achievable targets to increase that basic along with excellent uncapped commission paid on all billings to ensure you are rewarded for your success. When we talk about earning potential, the sky really is the limit - just ask our consultants!
