Job description

If you’re a recruiter who’s good at what you do and knows it, someone who’s built real relationships, run a genuine desk, and is ready to do it at a higher level, this one’s worth reading. Talent Street is a specialist IT recruitment firm that’s been doing this for over 13 years. We have a strong foothold in the Federal Government market, a national presence, and a reputation built on doing things properly. We’re growing, and we’re looking for a Principal Consultant to grow with us.

What the role actually looks like

It’s not just a role where you’re handed a warm desk and told to maintain it. It’s a genuine relationship and business building opportunity, where you can deliver to established clients, whilst compiling new client relationships across government and commercial markets. Taking ownership of delivering quality candidates to your clients and working with like minded people, using cutting edge recruitment technology.

You’ll have real autonomy. You’ll also have real support, with people behind you, infrastructure that works, and leadership that’s present without being overbearing.

If you thrive on meeting your customers (clients and candidates), working on roles, and you know how to convert, the rewards and growth is there for you.

What we’re looking for

You’ve been in IT recruitment long enough to know the difference between a good candidate and the right one. You understand client relationships, not just the transactional kind, however the ones where clients call you first because they trust you. You can run your own desk, manage your own pipeline, and you don’t need to be micromanaged to stay accountable.

Beyond that, you’re someone who lifts the room. Who leads by showing up, not by talking about it. Who’s genuinely curious about the market and takes the time to understand it.

If you’ve been in IT recruitment for 5+ years and you’re ready for a role where your effort directly determines your outcome, let’s have a chat!

What we value
  • Trust: Integrity is at the heart of what we do, we are authentic in all our thoughts and actions
  • Purpose: A focused team delivering exceptional people and talent outcomes
  • Ownership: Trusting and empowering our people to make the right choices
  • Respect: Recognising and respecting the diversity of all people and backgrounds through our day-to-day actions
  • Ambition: Shaping aspiring careers through our people, experience and expertise
