Recruitment Consultant (6+ Months Experience)
Manchester City Centre
Pharmaceutical | MedTech | Biotechnology | US Manufacturing Markets
There comes a point in a recruiter’s career where the question changes.
Not “Can I bill?”
But “How far can I take this if I’m in the right environment?”
At ACE Partners, we work with recruiters who have already proven they can perform, and are now looking for something more deliberate, more specialist, and more rewarding.
We are a global headhunting firm operating exclusively across Pharmaceutical, Medical Device, and Biotechnology manufacturing markets in the United States, where average fees sit at $25K per placement.
This is a niche that rewards depth over volume. Expertise over activity. And consistency over noise.
Where You’ll Sit:
You’ll join a 17-person high-performance team that operates like a specialist trading floor, but with structure, support, and real development behind it.
This is a team where:
- Average productivity sits at $25K per head per quarter
- Experienced consultants consistently clear £100K+ quarterly billing
- Top performers regularly take home £10K-£15K+ monthly bonuses
- Growth is based on output
We don’t overcomplicate success here. If you build relationships, understand your market, and execute consistently, you will earn exceptionally well.
The Market You’ll Own:
You will operate in critical US manufacturing/medtech sectors, working with international clients.
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.
Your desk is built around:
- Long-term, retained and contingent search work
- Deep niche candidate mapping in technical manufacturing markets
- High-value, repeat client relationships across the US
- Genuine consultative hiring conversations, not transactional CV pushing
What This Role Looks Like Day-to-Day:
As an experienced recruitment consultant, you will:
- Own and develop a specialist US-focused market desk
- Build trusted relationships with senior hiring stakeholders internationally
- Diagnose hiring problems and advise on talent strategy, not just fill roles
- Develop deep candidate pipelines in niche manufacturing verticals
- Generate new business and grow long-term client partnerships
- Operate as a market expert within a defined specialist space
Why Experienced Recruiters Join Us:
Most recruiters at your level aren’t looking for “a new job”.
They’re looking for:
- A clearer route to senior earnings
- A more defined, higher-value market
- Less noise, more control over their desk
- A team that actually performs at a high level consistently
- A place where their output directly reflects their income
That is exactly what this environment is built for.
We promote on evidence of mastery:
- Consistent billing performance
- Desk ownership and market development
- Client acquisition and retention
- Leadership behaviours within a high-performance team
For strong performers, progression into Senior Consultant, Principal, and Leadership pathways is structured and visible, not vague or delayed.

We will also offer relocation opportunities to Miami as our US presence expands in 2027.
Compensation & Reward:
- £28,000-£35,000 base salary (DOE)
- Uncapped commission structure
- Realistic Year 1 earnings: £60K-£100K+
- High performers significantly exceeding this
Additional rewards:
- Up to 30 days annual leave + early Friday finishes
- Fully expensed international incentives (Ibiza, Mykonos, Skiing)
- Premium networking & team events (Chester Races, Michelin dining, Hyrox, Tough Mudder)
- Gym membership + weekly team training sessions
Who This Is For:
This is designed for recruiters who:
- Already have 12+ months experience in recruitment
- Want to move into a more specialist, higher-value market
- Are motivated by earnings, but want sustainable structure behind it
- Prefer depth, expertise, and control over chaotic high-volume desks
- Want a clear path into senior billing and leadership
If you’re currently performing, but feel you’ve outgrown your market, your desk, or your ceiling, this is an opportunity to reset into something more intentional.
If that sounds like the direction you want your career to take next, we should talk.
