Recruitment Consultant – Industrial Temps
6-Month Contract | Leeds, LS15 4LG | Hybrid | £Competitive DOE
Are you an experienced Recruitment Consultant who thrives on pace, targets, relationships, and getting things done?
Do you know the difference between recruitment experience and really understanding recruitment?
If you're commercially driven, resilient, organised, and love the buzz of matching great people with great opportunities, we want to hear from you.
About the Role
Aqumen Recruitment is growing — and we're looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join our Industrial Temp Division on an initial 6-month contract.
This isn't a role for someone who wants to sit back...
Our Industrial Temp Division is fast-moving, people-focused, and commercially driven.
You'll be working in an environment where every day is different — from winning new business and strengthening client relationships, to sourcing candidates, managing temporary workers, and making sure vacancies are filled quickly and effectively.
You'll need to be someone who enjoys the challenge.
Someone who can pick up the phone, build relationships, solve problems, and make things happen.
Most importantly, you'll need to understand that great temporary recruitment is about more than filling a vacancy — it's about delivering a service that clients trust and candidates value.
What You'll Be Doing
As an Industrial Recruitment Consultant, you'll take ownership of your desk and play a key role in driving the continued growth of our temporary recruitment operation.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing and developing existing client relationships
- Identifying and developing new business opportunities
- Taking detailed vacancy briefs and understanding exactly what the client needs
- Sourcing, interviewing, and selecting suitable candidates
- Managing a busy temporary workforce and building strong candidate relationships
- Responding quickly and effectively to changing client requirements
- Managing the full recruitment process from initial contact through to placement
- Conducting regular candidate and client communication
- Helping to ensure high levels of compliance and service delivery
- Working closely with the wider Aqumen team to maximise opportunities
- Hitting and exceeding commercial and recruitment 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.
This is a hands-on recruitment role where your energy, experience, and ability to deliver will make a genuine difference.
What We're Looking For
Recruitment experience is essential.
We're looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant who is already comfortable operating in a fast-paced recruitment environment — ideally with experience within industrial, logistics, manufacturing, warehouse, production, or temporary recruitment.
You'll need to be:
- An experienced Recruitment Consultant with a proven track record
- Confident working in a high-volume, fast-paced environment
- Commercially minded with a genuine appetite for business development
- Comfortable managing both clients and candidates
- Highly organised, resilient, and able to prioritise under pressure
- A confident communicator who isn't afraid to pick up the phone
- Driven by results but equally passionate about delivering great service
- A problem solver who takes ownership rather than waiting to be told what to do
- Able to work independently while contributing positively to a team
