Job description

TYG is looking for an experienced Senior or Principal Recruitment Consultant to join our growing Construction team.

This is an opportunity to join one of our long-standing markets, with established client relationships, a strong reputation across the US, and an average deal size of around $30,000.

We are looking for an experienced recruiter who wants the autonomy to own their market, develop their own client relationships, and build a highly profitable desk, with the earning potential to match.

The Opportunity

Our Construction team is growing, and we are looking for an experienced consultant who can come in and make an impact from day one.

You will have ownership of your deals from start to finish, with no split-fee model. You will be responsible for developing your own client base, managing senior-level relationships, and building your presence within an established US construction market.

There is plenty of scope to grow your desk further, develop new areas of the market, and play a key role in the continued growth of the team.

Why TYG?

For an experienced recruiter, we know the opportunity needs to stack up commercially.

At Principal level, we offer:

• 50% commission, paid monthly
• 100% ownership of your deals with no split fees
• Average deal size of approximately $30,000
• An established and long-standing US Construction market
• Existing relationships alongside plenty of scope for new business
• Autonomy and trust to run your desk
• Tech-led approach to business development and market mapping
• Opportunity to contribute to the growth and direction of the Construction team
• Clear opportunities to progress as TYG continues to grow

What You'll Be Doing

• Building and managing your own portfolio of US Construction clients
• Developing new business across your market
• Headhunting and representing senior construction professionals
• Managing recruitment processes from initial introduction through to placement
• Building long-term relationships with clients and candidates
• Identifying new opportunities and areas for growth
• Taking genuine ownership of your desk and revenue

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for an established recruiter with a track record of billing and developing client relationships.

You do not necessarily need previous US Construction experience. We are more interested in finding someone who understands how to build a successful recruitment desk and wants the opportunity to do that within a high-value market.

You might already be a Principal Consultant, or you could be a strong Senior Consultant looking for a business where the next step gives you greater autonomy, ownership, and earning potential.

Life at TYG

We're a growing specialist recruitment business based in London, recruiting exclusively across the US Architecture, Engineering, and Construction markets.

Alongside the commercial opportunity, we offer:

• Early finish Fridays
• Regular team socials and incentives
• Biannual international incentive trips
• 22 days annual leave plus Christmas shutdown
• WeWork office near Liverpool Street
• A social, ambitious, and high-performing team

If you're already billing well but want more ownership of what you build, stronger earning potential, and the opportunity to join an established US Construction market with significant room for growth, we'd love to hear from you.
