Job description

Senior / Principal Recruitment Consultant – Finance Systems & Transformation

• Location: London
• Level: Senior Consultant / Principal Consultant
• Sector: Finance Systems, ERP, EPM, Technology & Transformation

Permanent People are working with an established international recruitment consultancy looking to hire experienced recruiters at Senior and Principal Consultant level as part of the continued growth of its London business.

With more than 25 years in the market, the company is a recognised specialist in recruitment at the intersection of Finance and Technology, supporting organisations across the UK, Europe and US.

Their established markets include:

• ERP & EPM
• Finance Transformation
• Analytics & BI
• Process Automation
• Business Systems
• Change & Transformation

They work with clients on specialist and often difficult-to-find talent, covering roles from Business Analysts, Change Managers and Project Managers through to ERP, Finance Systems and Transformation Directors.

Who are they looking for?

This isn't simply about finding someone with a particular number of years in recruitment.

They're looking for credible, intelligent and commercially minded recruiters who understand how to develop senior-level client relationships and operate in a genuinely consultative way.

Ideally, you'll already be performing at a level where you're billing – or have demonstrated the capability to bill – approximately £300k–£400k per annum.

Experience within one of their existing specialist markets would naturally be attractive, but they are also particularly interested in recruiters from the broader Change & Transformation space whose experience could complement the existing business.

You'll likely be someone who:

• Has a strong track record in 360 recruitment
• Can demonstrate consistent personal billings and business development
• Is comfortable engaging with senior-level clients and candidates
• Takes a consultative rather than transactional approach to recruitment
• Understands how to build and develop a specialist market
• Has the credibility to advise clients rather than simply take job specifications
• Wants to join a business where market knowledge and long-terms relationships genuinely matter

The opportunity

You'll be joining a highly specialised recruitment business with an established international client base and a track record of successfully recruiting within niche technology and transformation markets.

The company has built its reputation around specialist market knowledge and long-term client partnerships, with repeat business forming an important part of its success.

For an experienced recruiter, this offers the opportunity to work within an established platform rather than having to build everything from scratch, while still having the autonomy to develop your own market and client relationships.

This could particularly suit a successful Senior Consultant looking for the platform to move towards Principal level, or an established Principal who wants to work in a specialist, credible and consultative recruitment environment.
