An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a fast-growing recruitment business specialising in the Umbrella and Contractor accounting sector. With a successful first year behind them and no signs of slowing down, the company is looking to expand its team with a driven and ambitious Recruitment Consultant.

The Role

The new hire will be responsible for recruiting primarily sales roles within payroll and accountancy companies. While the majority of placements will be sales-focused, there will be occasional compliance roles, ensuring variety in the desk. This is a very warm desk with 6-7 live jobs available from day one, providing an excellent opportunity to hit the ground running.

While business development is not a primary focus, the company encourages everyone to have a proactive approach in identifying new opportunities. The environment is results-driven without excessive tracking or micromanagement—performance is measured by the number of deals closed rather than call metrics.

What’s on Offer?

• A chance to be part of a growing business at an early stage, playing a key role in its success.
• Supportive leadership that values autonomy—no micromanagement, no rigid call tracking.
• A competitive base salary of up to £30k, with realistic earnings potential of £111k+ through commissions.
• An opportunity to work closely with experienced professionals, including direct collaboration with senior team members.
• A hybrid working model available once fully up to speed, with an office based in Altrincham.

Who They’re Looking For

• Someone with 12-18 months of recruitment experience, ideally within Accountancy or Financial Services, who is confident they want to build a career in recruitment.
• A motivated, hardworking individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment.
• A consultant who can build strong relationships—particularly with accountants, given the nature of the client base.
• A team player who wants to contribute to the company’s continued success and growth.

The Hiring Process

• An initial face-to-face coffee meeting with the Owner.
• A follow-up meeting with NED and / or Senior team member to gain a second perspective.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a company that has already made nearly 50 placements in its first year, with an average fee of £7.5k and huge growth potential in the payroll and accounting sector. If you’re ready to work hard, earn well, and be part of something exciting, this is the role for you!
