Job description

Alongside recruitment roles with agencies and employers, we also work on some fantastic opportunities with rapidly emerging recruitment services and SaaS providers, and this role is a great example.

Our client is already a Scottish success story and still one of the fastest growing businesses in the Recruitment software service and SaaS sector in the UK. They also have a tremendous reputation for continuous innovation and, for being an exciting, motivation-led employer focused on team progression and retention (they prefer to use the term 'community').

They are now looking to add another key person into their front-line sales team to help maintain that growth and pattern of success.

You’ll be focussed on driving new client introductions, fixing meetings and, ultimately sales. As a strong communicator with great telephone and relationship building skills, you’ll be introducing innovative, market-leading products to employers and key recruitment decision makers.

Hence, while some recruitment market experience would be useful, demonstrating some proven sales or customer facing experience, strong communication skills, resilience and personal ambition and drive to be successful will be much more important.

There’s a strong existing team and cool new Glasgow offices, and you’ll also get flexible hybrid working (2 days at home & 3 in the office in a typical week).

If you are ready to develop your sales career with a great employer and innovative, market-leading products, you’ll receive full training and support, a strong basic of £28k-£30k, plus a commission & benefits package that will reward your commitment and achievements.

As always, there’s more to share, so if this opportunity interests you don’t hang about and contact Hazel for an initial discrete discussion on 07411-002589, or at [e-mail] - or, just click apply and add a short cover note with any questions.
