Job description

Maybe you studied drama but things did not work out? Or maybe you found the traditional graduate path has not been 100% right for you? Maybe you’re a few years into your career and have realised you’re really good at people, opportunity and making things happen.

We should talk.

Aquent is looking for a bright, commercially minded person to join our Australian business and learn how to recruit from the ground up - all aspects of the process.

We’re deliberately NOT looking for someone from recruitment.

Who are you?

First, the non-negotiable:

You must have a university degree and a strong record of academic achievement.

We care less about what you studied and more about what your results tell us about how you think and perform!

A few years of work experience where you can demonstrate some B2B sales experience,would be ideal.

Be based in Australia ideally Sydney and have unlimited work rights.

We can teach you recruitment! What we're really looking for is someone who is:

Someone who asks great questions.

Someone who notices things.

Someone who treats setbacks as data, not defeat

Someone who wants their performance to have a direct relationship with what they earn.

And someone who backs themselves.

What will you actually do?

This is a 360-degree commercial role spanning business development, relationship building, talent and recruitment. You'll learn to spot opportunity before it turns into a job vacancy.

You'll turn those signals into conversations, relationships, opportunities and revenue. Then you'll learn the other side: finding brilliant people, interviewing, advising clients, negotiating, closing placements and growing accounts.

What do you get?

A competitive base salary plus uncapped commission.

And when we say uncapped, we mean it.

You'll also get:

• Unlimited annual leave
• $8,000 annual Learning & Development allowance
• Access to Aquent's company-owned holiday retreat homes
• Global career opportunities
• Exposure to emerging AI and recruitment technology
• A seriously experienced team to learn from

There isn't a predetermined ceiling on where this can take you. So if you're smart, ambitious and sitting there thinking “I'm capable of more than what I'm doing now.” come and prove it.
