Job description

Recruitment Consultant - Sales Professionals Welcome

Professional Technical is a specialist recruitment business operating across Technical Engineering, Design, and Manufacturing. We are growing and looking for commercially minded people who want to build a long-term career in recruitment.

You do not need recruitment experience. You do need resilience, drive, and comfort working to targets.

• Sourcing candidates using job boards, LinkedIn, referrals, and direct outreach.
• Screening and interviewing candidates.
• Speaking with hiring managers about vacancies and hiring needs.
• Managing the recruitment process from first call to offer and start.
• Working to clear activity and revenue targets with coaching and support.

This is a phone-based, target-driven role. If you enjoy outbound sales and closing deals, you will do well.

Who this suits

We are keen to speak with people who have:

• Experience in sales, telesales, business development, account management, or recruitment.
• Worked in roles with targets, KPIs, or commission.
• Confidence on the phone and resilience when handling rejection.
• A professional attitude and willingness to learn a technical market.
• An interest in building a career, not just finding a job.

What you\'ll get

• OTE 35k- 45k+ in year one, uncapped commission.
• Basic salary plus a clear commission structure.
• 9-day fortnight for those on target.
• Hybrid working.
• 25 days holiday, rising to 30 with service.
• Private medical cover and private GP access.
• Structured career progression and regular salary reviews.
• Half-day Fridays, casual dress code, and free parking.
• Incentives including European city breaks.
• Full training and ongoing coaching.
