Job description

SAP Account Manager - Permanent Desk

Linksap is a specialist IT recruitment business operating within the international SAP ecosystem. Since our inception in 2015, we have grown to 40 employees and successfully placed over 3,000 consultants with 300+ clients across Europe, the Americas, and MENA.

With 2–3 new placements made daily across our contract and permanent divisions, we are recognised as a leading SAP recruitment partner .

In 2024, after reaching £40m revenue , Linksap was acquired by Oxford Global Resources , creating new opportunities for our people to grow alongside a highly successful global organisation.

The Opportunity :

Due to continued growth and increasing demand across our international client base, we are looking to hire ambitious SAP Account Managers for our Permanent SAP Staffing Division.

This is a 180 role with a focus on business development and account management, offering genuine ownership, autonomy, and the chance to build long-term relationships with clients across a highly lucrative global market.

Our permanent recruitment team is a smaller, high-growth practice within a highly established SAP recruitment business. Already fully operational with an established client pool , you would step into a warm desk with high potential clients and have the support of a dedicated team of recruiters focused on delivering candidates.

The permanent division has been identified as a strategic investment area, with a refreshed approach and significant potential to scale through Linksap’s existing client relationships.

Key Responsibilities :

• Build and nurture long‑term client relationships, acting as a trusted recruitment partner.
• Proactively generate new business opportunities and grow existing client accounts.
• Engage with major organisations to qualify their permanent staffing requirements and manage them effectively in close collaboration with our specialist candidate resourcing team.
• Own the client‑facing recruitment process from CV submission through to offer management.
• Negotiate commercial terms alongside senior leadership and business support teams.
• Build a strong understanding of client organisations, hiring strategies, and the wider SAP talent market.

Your Skillset :

A background in recruitment, B2B sales, account management or in another client‑facing commercial environment would be an advantage; however we are open to candidates from a variety of backgrounds and do not require previous recruitment experience. What matters most is attitude, drive, and the willingness to develop new skills. You are likely to be successful if you :

• Are highly motivated by performance, progression, and earning potential.
• Enjoy building long‑term professional relationships.
• Take ownership of outcomes and have a strong sense of accountability.
• Thrive in an entrepreneurial environment that rewards initiative and commitment.
• Are resilient, organised, and comfortable working in a fast‑paced, performance‑driven environment.
• Are coachable and keen to develop a career within a proven recruitment framework.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills are a must, as is a decent standard of computer literacy (Outlook, Word, Excel, and ability to learn a new CRM system).

Package and Benefits :

• Competitive base salary plus a highly rewarding, uncapped commission scheme.
• Potential for quarterly base salary increases through our ‘Performing Quarter’ scheme, rewarding consistent target achievement.
• Private health insurance and company laptop.
• Regular incentives, team events, annual Christmas party, and sales prizes that reward high achievers.
• Yearly ‘President’s Club’ trip - previous destinations were Barcelona, Dubai, Berlin, Madrid, Ibiza, Valencia, Miami, and Mexico.

Why Join Linksap?

• A tested and proven training and development framework, with structured 1‑to‑1 coaching from senior leadership to support long‑term success.
• Be part of an established business with a strong reputation, established client relationships, and a proven delivery record.
• Exposure to a true global leader through our parent company (Oxford Global Resources) with decades of experience and a true industry‑expert senior leadership.
• Genuine ownership and autonomy, with contributions clearly recognised and rewarded.
• Work alongside high‑achievers, including multiple £1m billers and an expert team with over 150 years of combined SAP recruitment experience.
• Modern 4,000 sq. ft. office with onsite parking, break‑out areas, a pool table, and onsite gym & restaurant facilities.
• Mature and well‑organised CRM system and a modern tech‑stack to facilitate success.
• Strong record of internal promotion and progression with clear growth pathways as the permanent recruitment division continues to scale.

Other Details :

• Smart‑casual dress code.
• In‑office work based in our Hemel Hempstead HQ (hybrid working is an option for proven colleagues).
• Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
