Job description

Sales Trainer - Move from Recruitment Consultant to L&D

Location: Nottingham (with travel to London - expenses paid)

Hybrid: 4 days in office, 1 day WFH

Base + 10% Bonus

Are you a recruiter who loves developing others and driving sales success but is looking for a progression path beyond billing? Have you ever thought about stepping into sales coaching-where your skills shape not just deals, but careers?

We're offering a rare opportunity for a recruiter to transition into an L&D role focused on sales performance. You'll move beyond billing and into a career dedicated to developing others, refining sales strategies, and making a real impact-without sacrificing career progression or rewards.

Why This Role?

From recruiter to coach: You'll be mentored by our Performance Manager, Hannah Eden, who made the same move-from Recruitment Consultant to industry-leading Performance Coach in just two years. Since joining, Hannah has had 3 promotions, driven global revenue growth, and enjoyed top-tier incentives (Paris, Mexico & NYC!).

Hands-on coaching & impact: You'll deliver sales coaching, training, and one-on-one performance development for our high-performing recruitment teams.

Career growth & incentives: You'll be supported with a personal L&D plan, fast-tracked career progression, and access to money-can't-buy rewards-think Michelin-star dining, all-inclusive holidays (Vegas, Miami, Dubai), and incredible experience days (skydiving, concerts, luxury shopping sprees).

What You'll Be Doing:

• Running engaging, high impact at desk coaching sessions for recruitment consultants (both 1-1 and group).
• Delivering an industry leading onboarding and continuous development programme to those with less than a year's experience (classroom & virtual to our Nottingham, London & NYC offices).
• Partnering with leadership to identify talent gaps & training needs.
• Championing a culture of high performance and continuous improvement.

What We're Looking For:

• A recruiter with an eye for development.
• Someone who enjoys proactively delivering solutions to problems.
• A strong communicator who can inspire, coach, and elevate those around them.

Who are we?

We're one of Europe's fastest-growing companies (as recognised by the Financial Times) with offices in Nottingham, London, and New York and soon to be Dubai! We specialise in Senior-Executive recruitment across E-commerce, FinTech, and Sports, working with major global brands like Nike, GymShark, L'Oréal, ASOS, and Boohoo.

This is your chance to take your recruitment career to the next level-moving from billing to building high-performing sales teams.
