Our client, a well-established and growing recruitment consultancy with a strong engineering-focused desk, is looking for an ambitious Senior Recruiter or Team Leader to take the reins of their Perm Blue Collar Engineering team.
This is a genuine development opportunity for someone who wants to progress from Team Leader into a full Manager role, working closely with the Managing Director to reshape and grow a team that already has a solid foundation but needs an injection of sales energy.
The Role
- Take ownership of billing and sales performance across an established Perm Engineering desk
- Lead, coach and develop a team of four, growing to six within the next 18 months
- Drive new business alongside reactivating some lapsed accounts – this is a sales-led role, not simply account management
- Bring genuine sales bite to a team that currently leans more towards account management, helping them push on to the next level of billing
- Earn a personal billing target as well as a team override on top
