About Mirai

Mirai is about to grow at pace after celebrating our best year yet. As a boutique Data & AI talent consultancy, we partner with FTSE 250 organisations, global enterprises, VC-backed scale-ups, and some of the most exciting AI start-ups on the scene.

We’re purpose-driven, community-led, and fiercely committed to representation and inclusion, demonstrated through initiatives like she does data. and the Let’s Talk Data Podcast . At Mirai, we don’t just recruit; we empower, connect, and elevate the Data & AI ecosystem.

The Role

We’re hiring a Billing Manager who will act as a player-coach — billing, leading, and growing a high-performing team. You’ll build and scale a best-in-class Data & AI recruitment function, with the opportunity to grow teams in either the UK or the US depending on your ambition and vision.

This is a strategic, hands‑on leadership role suited to someone who loves the craft of recruitment, thrives in high performance, and wants to help shape Mirai’s next phase of growth globally.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead from the front, managing your own billing desk while coaching and developing consultants around you.


• Build, manage, and scale a high-performing team in the UK or US , depending on growth plans and your strengths.


• Drive new business through face‑to‑face engagement, networking, client meetings, and community involvement.


• Oversee end‑to‑end recruitment across the Data & AI markets, ensuring exceptional standards of delivery.


• Act as a trusted advisor to clients, providing insight, market intelligence, and tailored hiring solutions.


• Support and champion diversity & inclusion initiatives through Mirai’s communities and partnerships.


• Collaborate closely with the leadership team to innovate our service offering and refine our go‑to‑market approach.


• Embody Mirai’s values, kaizen (continuous improvement), ikigai (purpose), community, and high performance.

What’s in it for you?

• £50–£60k base salary with uncapped commission and a profit share scheme.


• A genuine pathway to build and lead a substantial team, UK or US expansion.


• Ongoing leadership coaching and industry‑leading training.


• Huge exposure to cutting‑edge Data & AI organisations.


• A collaborative, energising culture driven by passion, purpose, and performance.


• Hybrid working, a Manchester city centre office, private healthcare, birthday off, and generous holiday allowance.


• The chance to leave a legacy, shaping the next generation of talent within the world’s fastest‑moving industry.

What we’re looking for

• Proven billing experience within recruitment (ideally Data, Tech, or STEM), with a track record of high performance.


• Experience leading, mentoring, or developing consultants or a genuine ambition to step into leadership.


• Strong business development skills and a consultative mindset.


• A passion for Data & AI and a belief in community‑driven recruitment.


• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and relationship‑building skills.


• Someone who thrives in a fast‑paced, people‑first, purpose‑led environment.


• Positive energy, accountability, ambition and a commitment to continuous improvement.

If you’re ready to step into a role where you can lead, bill, and build , while shaping the future of Mirai in the UK or US, we’d love to talk!
