Job description

We are looking to expand our team after an extremely busy period as we work towards our 5-year vision.

The Role

As a Senior Talent Partner, you'll own your own market. With clients across the UK and US, you will have the opportunity to develop and expand your region in the Rec2Rec world, with a focus on Executive Search.

From tech rec firms in Manchester to legal rec firms in New York, you're building out an area you're passionate it and ensuring the best talent is connected with the best recruitment talent.

The best people in recruitment aren't on job boards or open to work on LinkedIn. They're busy, they're billing, and they're not thinking about a move. Your job is to be in touch with them long before they're ready to leave it, building genuine relationships so that when the moment comes, the call to you is the one they want to make.

You'll be managing the end-to-end process, partnering with hiring managers and the senior leadership teams, and keeping a eye on pipeline activity to ensure we're always building toward our goals.

If you'd like to relocate to your market area, there is that option too!

About You

You'll know the recruitment world well. Whether that's from sitting at a billing desk, working in an internal resourcing function, or operating in the Rec2Rec space. What matters most is that you understand what motivates people in this industry, what makes them stay and what makes them finally say yes to something new.

Beyond that, we're looking for someone who brings:

• A genuine passion for people and talent, with the commercial instincts to back it up
• The ability to run structured hiring alongside nuanced senior searches
• Strong relationship building skills and the kind of presence that people genuinely enjoy being around
• Confidence working across time zones, cultures and seniority levels
• A proactive, self-starting mindset with the drive to make things happen

Why This Role?

Propel is busier than we ever expected and we want to make sure we are maximising every opportunity to work with great people. We offer a collaborative team, strong commission and benefits, and the ability to spearhead and be on the founding journey of Propel - this hire will shape who we are as a team as we continue to grow.

Based onsite in Leeds - hybrid available.
