Sheffield

27,000- 28,000 per annum + Uncapped Commission

Ready for a career where your ambition and results drive your earnings and progression? Confident, competitive and results-driven? Recruitment could be your next career move.

Search Recruitment Group is growing its Construction division in Sheffield. Join us as an Associate Recruitment Consultant and build your career.

We're one of the UK's leading multidisciplinary recruitment agencies, with a strong reputation, established client partnerships and over 35 years of industry experience.

No recruitment experience? No problem. Bring resilience, drive and a commercial mindset to thrive in a fast-paced environment. With structured training and ongoing coaching, you'll develop client relationships, build a talent network and become a construction recruitment specialist.

The best part? Uncapped earning potential and performance-driven progression.

What Will You Be Doing?

This is more than matching people with jobs. It's a sales-driven role focused on business development, relationship-building and recruitment solutions.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Generating new business through outbound calls, LinkedIn outreach and face-to-face meetings.
• Building long-term client partnerships by understanding hiring challenges and identifying recruitment opportunities.
• Sourcing, attracting and interviewing candidates to build a strong construction talent pipeline.
• Agreeing commercial terms, fees and rates while managing client and candidate expectations.
• Coordinating placements, bookings and shift allocations for a seamless client and candidate experience.
• Maintain client and candidate relationships, deliver excellent service, and drive repeat business.

What Are We Looking For?

You don't need to be an expert from day one. Attitude, motivation and a willingness to learn matter most.

We'd like to hear from you if you have:

• Experience in sales, business development or a target-driven environment - helpful, but not essential.
• A competitive, results-driven mindset and the ambition to exceed targets.
• Confident communication, rapport-building and relationship management skills.
• Resilience, determination and a positive approach to setbacks.
• A proactive approach, a strong work ethic and a drive to build a successful career.
• The confidence to pick up the phone, ask questions and create opportunities.
• A full UK driving licence - advantageous for construction site visits.

What's In It for You?

We believe hard work should be recognised and rewarded. You'll benefit from:

• 27,000- 28,000 basic salary with uncapped monthly commission.
• Award-winning development: structured on boarding, ongoing coaching and support from our dedicated Talent Development team.
• Clear career pathways into senior recruitment, specialist or management roles.
• Golden Ticket incentives: earn up to 500 in vouchers for achieving KPIs.
• Annual international incentive trips, regular team socials, celebrations and early finishes.
• Flex Holiday: buy or sell up to five days of annual leave.
• EV car benefit scheme through Tusker.
• Dedicated marketing, compliance and payroll support, so you can focus on building your desk and growing your business.

Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age.
