Delivery / Account Manager (Tech & Go-To-Market Recruitment)
Manchester (Spinningfields) | Permanent | £35,000–£60,000 DOE + uncapped commission
If you’re a strong delivery recruiter who loves filling roles and building trusted client relationships—but you’re tired of cold-start business development—this is the opportunity to work on high-value, retained projects with a market-leading brand behind you.
We’re partnering with a globally established tech recruitment business (founded in 1996, ~60 consultants across the UK and US) that is scaling rapidly following a management buyout. Their focus is Go-To-Market hiring across SaaS and enterprise technology, covering Sales, Marketing, RevOps, Pre-Sales and Customer Success across the UK, Europe and North America.
What you’ll be doing
- Manage and grow a portfolio of existing client accounts.
- Deliver permanent hires across GTM and technical GTM functions.
- Work on retained and exclusive projects with multiple live vacancies.
- Partner with dedicated Business Development colleagues who generate new client relationships.
- Build deep candidate networks and become a genuine market specialist.
- Collaborate with a high-performing team that actively shares jobs and candidates.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Why this role is different
- No requirement to win new business from scratch – a dedicated BD function opens and develops accounts.
- High-value work – average fees are around £25k, with many deals in the £30k–£40k+ range.
- Strong job flow – the business consistently operates with a large volume of live vacancies across Europe and North America.
- Clear progression – successful Account Managers can move into broader account ownership, team leadership and, ultimately, equity-track opportunities.
What we’re looking for
- 6 months to 5 years’ permanent recruitment experience (technology, SaaS, GTM or a related professional-services market preferred).
- A proven track record of delivery and candidate management.
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
- A coachable, ambitious mindset and a genuine desire to become an expert in your market.
- Comfortable working in a five-day office environment and collaborating closely with a high-performing team.
