Recruitment Consultant - Temporary Engineering Division
WF Tech Recruitment

Redditch, Worcestershire

£30,000 - £40,000 Basic DOE + Uncapped Commission + Bonus

Monday to Friday | Days Only

Build Something Special with One of the UK's Leading Precision Engineering Recruiters

WF Tech is a specialist recruitment business dedicated exclusively to the Precision Manufacturing and CNC Engineering sectors. As part of the established Workforce Staffing Group, we combine the backing, stability and resources of a larger organisation with the relaxed, supportive culture of a close-knit family business.

Following continued growth, we're looking for an ambitious Recruitment Consultant to develop and grow our National Temporary Engineering Desk.

This isn't just another recruitment role—it is an opportunity to take ownership of a desk with huge potential while working alongside an experienced team that has built an outstanding reputation across the UK's precision engineering sector.

The Opportunity

Our permanent recruitment team already partners with hundreds of engineering manufacturers across the UK. As these relationships continue to grow, so does the demand for temporary and contract staffing.

  • CNC Setter/Operators
  • CNC Operators
  • Machine Operatives
  • Production Operatives
  • Assembly Operatives
  • Skilled Manufacturing Personnel

With a national remit and a warm client base already in place, you'll have genuine opportunities to build long-term recurring business rather than starting entirely from scratch.

Your Responsibilities
  • Build and develop WF Tech's temporary recruitment division.
  • Manage the full temporary recruitment lifecycle.
  • Source, interview and register engineering candidates.
  • Develop relationships with existing WF Tech clients and identify new opportunities.
  • Generate new business through proactive sales activity.
  • Manage bookings, compliance and candidate availability.
  • Grow a profitable temporary desk with recurring weekly revenue.
  • Work closely with the permanent recruitment team to maximise opportunities across shared accounts.
What We're Looking For

We're interested in speaking with recruiters who enjoy building relationships and developing business.

  • Previous recruitment experience (temporary recruitment preferred)
  • Strong business development skills
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building ability
  • Self-motivation and a proactive approach
  • Good organisational and time management skills
  • A desire to build something and make it your own
  • Engineering recruitment experience would be an advantage, but it isn't essential—we can provide the industry knowledge.
What We Offer
  • Competitive basic salary based on experience.
  • Excellent commission structure.
  • Performance bonuses.
  • Established client base and warm opportunities.
  • National market with significant growth potential.
  • Full support from an experienced permanent recruitment team.
  • Backing of the Workforce Staffing Group.
  • Relaxed, supportive and family-oriented working environment.
  • Genuine autonomy to shape and grow your own desk.
  • Ongoing training and career development.
  • Company events and team incentives.
Why WF Tech?

Recruitment is about people, and that's exactly how we run our business.

Whilst we're ambitious and passionate about what we do, we don't believe in aggressive KPIs or micro-management. Instead, we trust our consultants to build relationships, deliver exceptional service and enjoy coming to work.

If you're looking for an opportunity where your ideas are valued, your success is recognised and you can genuinely make your mark, we'd love to hear from you.
