Job description

Overview

Principal Consultant - Engineering/Facilities Management
Location: London (Nearest stations: Old Street & Moorgate)
Agile working options available
Remuneration: Up to £40k basic salary, uncapped commission

You\'re thriving - but is your current role still pushing you forward?

You're good at what you do. You\'ve built solid relationships, earned trust, and delivered results. But lately, something\'s shifted - not in your performance, but in how your current role feels. Maybe it\'s the culture, the direction of the business, or just that sense that you\'re not as challenged or supported as you should be.

If you\'re recruiting in Facilities Management or Engineering, you already know how demanding the space is. You also know when your surroundings - be it leadership, culture, or just a sense of purpose - aren\'t keeping pace with your own ambition.

At Ganymede, we\'ve had recruiters join us not because they were struggling, but because they were ready for something better - somewhere they could grow, be trusted, and progress.

The Role and About You

As a Principal Consultant, you\'ll take ownership of and grow your own specialist area within Facilities Management - supported by an experienced leadership team and a client base that already knows us well across transport and infrastructure.

You\'ll already be working in recruitment within the Facilities Management or Engineering sector, and you\'ll bring with you a clear understanding of the market, what your clients really need, and the value of long-term relationships over quick wins.

This is a 360 role and you\'ll have the autonomy to shape your deskyourway, with the tools and people to back it up.

We\'re looking for someone who:

• Values autonomy and thrives when trusted to deliver
• Relishes the challenge of winning and growing business - not just maintaining it
• Wants to contribute ideas and see them genuinely considered
• Seeks a mature, stable environment that\'s still forward-thinking
• Possesses excellent spoken and written English skills
• We\'re looking for you to bring your experience, standards, and ambition and we\'ll support you to go as far as you want.
