Job description

Recruitment Consultant - Accounting & Finance

Charterhouse Recruitment | Sydney CBD | Permanent or Temporary Recruitment Desk

An opportunity to build a genuinely successful recruitment desk, with the freedom to make it your own.

We're looking for an ambitious, commercially minded Recruitment Consultant to join our Accounting & Finance team at Charterhouse.

Whether your background is in permanent or temporary recruitment, we're open to both. What matters most is your drive, ability to build relationships and motivation to grow a successful desk.

Why this opportunity?

Our Accounting & Finance team operates across the commercial market, and unlike many recruitment businesses, our desks aren't saturated or restricted by seniority levels. This means genuine opportunity to build relationships and recruit across a broad range of positions, from newly qualified finance through to senior finance leadership. There's plenty of market to go after, and we're looking for someone who sees that as an opportunity rather than a challenge.

The role

This is a true 360 recruitment position, with a strong emphasis on business development and building long-term client relationships.

You'll be responsible for:

• Developing new client relationships and identifying opportunities across the commercial Accounting & Finance market.
• Building and managing your own portfolio of clients.
• Managing the full recruitment lifecycle, from business development and client briefing through to sourcing, interviewing and placement.
• Developing strong candidate networks and becoming a trusted specialist in your market.
• Taking ownership of your desk and driving its growth.
• Responsible for revenue target and budget.

What we're looking for

We're not looking for someone who simply wants to manage incoming jobs. We want someone who enjoys getting out into the market, meeting clients, opening doors and creating opportunities.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• Previous recruitment experience, ideally within Accounting & Finance, although other specialisms will be considered.
• A genuine interest in business development and relationship building.
• A proactive, resilient and commercially driven approach.
• The motivation to take ownership of your market and build something successful.

What's in it for you?

You'll work with a great team, we work hard, but we also make sure there's plenty to enjoy along the way.

• 25 days off annually- 20 days annual leave plus 5 additional Charterhouse days.
• Your birthday off.
• Your work anniversary off.
• Competitive commission structure.
• Global incentive trips (past trips Croatia, Las Vegas, Athens, Japan)
• Quarterly team lunches.
• Pool table and dartboard in the office.
• A supportive, experienced team with plenty of room to grow.
• Genuine planned out career progression.

Why Charterhouse?

You'll be joining an established Accounting & Finance team with a strong reputation in the Sydney market, existing client relationships and plenty of opportunity for further growth.

We're not looking to put someone into a narrowly defined desk. We want someone who is excited by the opportunity to develop their own market, build genuine client partnerships and be rewarded for the success they create.

If you're a motivated recruiter who enjoys the commercial side of recruitment and wants the freedom to build a desk with real potential, we'd love to hear from you.
