• Recalibrate go-to-market, client engagement, and revenue generation approaches.
• Redefine KPIs and performance metrics to align with commercial goals.
• Re-energise and restructure high-performing teams across permanent, contract, and TA functions.
• Work closely with founders to embed a high-accountability, collegiate culture.
• Mentor and empower team leads, instilling a client-first, results-driven ethos.
• Drive market presence and client acquisition across UK and Europe.

Ideal Profile:

• Proven track record in a senior leadership role within a top-tier UK-based financial services recruitment firm.
• Deep understanding of financial services, project-based hiring, and technology talent trends.
• Strong commercial acumen with experience in strategic transformation and turnaround.
• Excellent people leadership skills with a coaching style and cultural sensitivity.
• Track record of building high-performing, values-led teams.

This is a unique opportunity to reshape a respected recruitment brand, with the autonomy and support to make meaningful impact from day one.
