Are you an experienced Recruitment Consultant looking for a path to Leadership?

If you're an experienced recruiter who's delivering results but feeling blocked by rigid KPIs, reshuffled desks, or vague progression promises - you're not alone. Many skilled consultants hit a point where the environment no longer matches their ambition.

At ATA Recruitment, we understand that senior recruiters don't need micromanaging - they need space to grow. We've built a culture that supports autonomy, celebrates performance, and offers real control over your career.

We're growing our team in Leeds and looking for a Principal Consultant to grow the contract engineering recruitment desk across the North. You'll inherit warm client relationships, work a market with proven success, and be supported to scale it as your own - with a clear pathway into a future leadership role.

The Role And About You

As a Principal Consultant, you'll be trusted to run your desk like a business, with the tools, support, and data you need from day one:

Develop client relationships through meaningful, consultative engagement — not just weekly call targets.
Manage a portfolio of clients and roles across engineering within the North.
Deliver end-to-end recruitment solutions, from briefing to placement, with full accountability.
Engage high-quality candidates through targeted sourcing and outreach strategies.
Identify opportunities to grow your desk - whether that's deepening existing accounts or opening new doors.

This is a role for someone who wants their expertise to count. You'll need:

A successful track record in 360 contract recruitment (any market considered).
Confidence in building and maintaining strong client and candidate relationships.
The desire to take ownership of your performance - and your earnings.
A strategic mindset, but still happy to roll up your sleeves and deliver.
Strong written and spoken English, with attention to detail.

Why ATA Recruitment?

Uncapped Commission from Day One: Uncapped commission - no moving goalposts.
Real Career Progression: Clear steps from Consultant through to leadership, backed by examples across the business.
Autonomy and Support: Run your desk with freedom, backed by a leadership team who provide guidance, not control.
Recognition That Means Something: Structured career development, incentives, and a culture where performance is acknowledged — not taken for granted.
Part of a Bigger Network: As part of the RTC Group, we're a well-established name in technical and engineering recruitment with resources to match.
