Job description

Build your career in recruitment with Anson McCade!

Anson McCade is a specialist technology recruitment business working with organisations across the UK, Ireland and Europe. We recruit across areas including technology, engineering, product, digital and consulting.

We’re looking for ambitious people to join our Belfast team. You don’t need years of recruitment experience to succeed here. What matters most is your attitude, curiosity and willingness to learn.

You’ll work closely with experienced recruiters who will help you develop your market knowledge, recruitment skills and commercial understanding from day one.

What will you be doing?

Your role will involve a mix of candidate research, relationship building and commercial activity, including:

• Building and developing your own network of technology professionals across different markets.
• Researching and identifying candidates through LinkedIn, headhunting, advertising and networking.
• Speaking with candidates about their experience, ambitions and potential career opportunities.
• Working closely with clients to understand what they need and finding the right people for their business.
• Developing your knowledge of the technology and consulting markets you recruit into.
• Managing the recruitment process from initial conversation through to offer and negotiation.
• Approaching high-performing professionals who may not actively be looking, and showing them why a new opportunity could be worth considering.

No two days will look exactly the same, and your responsibilities will grow as you become more experienced.

What are we looking for?

We’re interested in people who are ambitious, competitive and genuinely interested in building a career.

You’ll need to be:

• Confident communicating with different people and comfortable picking up the phone.
• Motivated by targets, progression and personal achievement.
• Curious and willing to learn about technology, recruitment and the markets we operate in.
• Able to work at pace and adapt when priorities change.
• Resilient and comfortable stepping outside your comfort zone.
• Degree educated with a strong academic background.

You don’t need to be a recruitment expert. We’ll teach you the recruitment side of things. Your attitude and potential are what matter.

What you’ll get

• £26,000 - £30,000 starting salary with a strong commission structure.
• Clear opportunities for progression based on performance.
• A structured environment where you’ll learn directly from experienced recruiters.
• Additional day off for your birthday and volunteering.
• Enhanced maternity pay.
• Regular team and company social events.
• Monthly lunches for top performers, with expenses covered.
