This is recruitment done differently.

We’re working with an award-winning, B Corp-certified specialist recruitment business with a 4.5 Glassdoor rating - and the internal feedback is just as impressive. With 15+ years in the market, established relationships across the UK technology ecosystem and a leadership team that actively commits to approachable management, regular 1-to-1s, transparent communication and career development, this is a business that genuinely invests in its people. You’ll join an environment built around trust, autonomy and collaboration, where success matters but so does enjoying the journey. If you’re 1–4 years into recruitment and want somewhere you can build a serious career, this is worth your attention.

The Recruitment Consultant will build a specialist technology recruitment desk, develop long-term client and candidate relationships and become a recognised name within your chosen market.

• Product: Build a portfolio of product-focused clients and connect with Product Managers, Directors and CPOs across start-ups, scale-ups and established organisations.
• AI & Data: Grow a market in one of technology’s fastest-expanding areas, developing relationships, communities and your own reputation across the data ecosystem.
• Marketing & Sales: Build a 360 desk across sales and marketing, combining commercial development with relationship-led recruitment and industry networking.
• Technology & Engineering: Work across software, cloud, DevOps and security, engaging technical talent and representing the business at meetups, events and within tech communities.

You Will Need:

• 1–4 years’ recruitment experience, ideally within technology, digital, data, product or an adjacent specialist market.
• A genuine appetite for business development and building your own client relationships rather than relying purely on existing vacancies.
• Strong relationship-building skills and the confidence to engage with candidates, hiring managers and senior stakeholders.
• Curiosity about your chosen market - you’ll be encouraged to understand the industry, follow trends, attend events and become an expert.
• Ambition and self-belief. You’ll have support around you, but you’ll also have the freedom to take ownership of your desk and your results.

Why You’ll Love It:

• 4.5 Glassdoor rating - backed by strong internal feedback on culture, leadership and management.
• B Corp certified and award-winning, with a genuine commitment to doing recruitment better for candidates, clients and employees.
• Uncapped earning potential: top billers regularly earn £80K–£120K+.
• Transparent commission and progression, with a clear route from Consultant through to Lead based on merit, not tenure.
• 25 days’ holiday + bank holidays, with the option to buy or sell holiday and increases with service.
• A personal Learning & Development budget for courses, conferences and coaching.
• Private healthcare, enhanced parental leave and personal days.
• Company trips in the UK and overseas, plus company-funded monthly socials.
• A genuine high-trust culture: you’re trusted to manage your desk without someone watching your activity all day.
• Leadership that has made a clear management pledge: listen without judgement, welcome feedback, communicate transparently, provide regular 1-to-1s and actively support your career development.
