Job description

Are you looking for a career where relationships, trust, and collaboration genuinely matter?

Do you enjoy consultative conversations, understanding people's challenges, and offering solutions rather than hard selling?

Are you confident communicating at all levels and comfortable representing a business both in person and online?

Plus One Recruitment is an established, independent recruitment consultancy based in Banbury. We work closely with businesses across Oxfordshire and Warwickshire and have been bringing people and jobs together since 2005. Due to continued growth, we are now looking to recruit a Recruitment Consultant to join our high-performing, collaborative team.

This opportunity is ideal for someone looking to step into recruitment as a long-term career. You do not need previous agency recruitment experience. Instead, we are looking for someone with experience in consultative sales, account management, or a client-facing advisory role, who is confident, professional, and team-focused. You will receive full training, ongoing support, and the opportunity to develop a successful career within a well-established local business.

Main Responsibilities

• Managing permanent and temporary recruitment assignments from start to finish
• Working consultatively with clients to understand their business, culture, and hiring requirements
• Building and maintaining strong, long-term relationships with clients and candidates
• Sourcing candidates using job boards, LinkedIn, internal databases, and networking
• Screening and interviewing candidates via phone, video, and face-to-face meetings
• Creating engaging job adverts, social media posts, and short video content to promote live roles
• Attending client meetings and visiting sites across the local area
• Coordinating interviews, offers, and onboarding processes
• Negotiating terms and managing recruitment processes professionally and compliantly
• Maintaining accurate and up-to-date CRM records
• Working collaboratively with the wider team to deliver an excellent recruitment service

Skills and Experience

• Experience in consultative sales, account management, or a customer-facing advisory role
• Confident and professional communication skills, both written and verbal
• Comfortable building relationships with people at all levels
• Happy to be visible on social media and involved in creating posts and short videos
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• A team-focused mindset, valuing shared success over individual wins
• Willingness to travel locally to meet clients and candidates
• Experience being involved in recruitment, hiring, or interview processes internally would be beneficial, but is not essential
• Full UK driving licence

Additional Information

• Full-time, permanent position
• Hybrid working available (2 days from home, 3 days in the office)
• £28,000 - £30,000 basic salary plus bonus
• 25 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
• Your birthday off
• Company pension scheme
• Full induction and structured recruitment training
• Ongoing development and clear career progression
• Supportive, social, and high-performing team environment
