Join Four Squared Recruitment
At Four Squared Recruitment, we do more than fill vacancies, we build careers, develop long-term partnerships and help businesses find exceptional talent. As part of the Ballards Group, we're looking for an experienced Executive Consultant to take ownership of an established desk, grow new business and deliver outstanding recruitment solutions.
The Opportunity
This is an opportunity for an experienced recruiter to build and grow a specialist recruitment desk. You'll use your market knowledge, network and commercial expertise to develop new client relationships, manage the full recruitment lifecycle and exceed financial and performance targets.
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.
What You'll Be Doing
- Managing and growing your own recruitment desk, taking responsibility for achieving financial targets and KPIs.
- Winning new business through business development, networking, client meetings and relationship building.
- Developing long-term partnerships with new and existing clients.
- Using your existing recruitment network alongside headhunting, referrals, LinkedIn and social media to attract candidates.
- Managing the full recruitment process from vacancy briefing through to offer management and placement.
- Interviewing, shortlisting and preparing candidates for client interviews.
- Negotiating offers, salaries and terms between clients and candidates.
- Providing market insight and recruitment advice to clients and candidates.
