Descripción del empleo

We're looking for a Talent Partner to join Summit and take ownership of sourcing, engaging and placing high-performing sales professionals and fee earners for a portfolio of growing, ambitious businesses.

This is a rare opportunity to work directly with the founder, in a business built on flexibility, trust and genuine autonomy. There's no micromanagement here, and no rigid KPIs dictating how you spend your day, you'll be judged on outcomes, not activity metrics. You'll be given the space and trust to run your own desk exactly how you see fit, with the backing and support to do it properly.

This is a genuinely autonomous, high-trust role. You'll be running your own desk end-to-end mapping the market, identifying top performers, building direct relationships with passive talent, and managing the full process from first approach through to offer and placement.

What You'll Be Doing

• Proactively sourcing and headhunting high-calibre sales and fee-earning talent
• Building direct relationships with passive candidates who aren't actively looking
• Managing your own pipeline and process, from first conversation to placement
• Using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search and direct outreach to build a genuine market map
• Assessing candidates rigorously; on capability, motivation and long-term fit, not just CV headlines
• Building credibility quickly with experienced, commercially switched-on people who've heard every pitch before

Who We're Looking For

You may already work in:

• Rec2Rec
• Agency recruitment
• Search / headhunting

Minimum 2 years' agency recruitment experience is essential.

We'd particularly value:

• Strong direct sourcing and headhunting capability
• Confidence approaching passive candidates
• Good commercial instincts
• Strong candidate assessment
• The ability to build credibility quickly
• Energy, persistence and genuine ownership
• Experience using LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search
• The ability to work independently in a fast-moving environment

This role suits someone who genuinely enjoys working independently; you won't be sitting in a noisy sales floor with someone checking your call count. But independence doesn't mean isolation: you'll still need to be coachable, open to feedback, and comfortable collaborating as part of a wider team when it counts.

What's On Offer

• Flexible, hybrid working: Just 1–2 days in the office
• Part time is able to also be considered
• Direct access to and mentorship from the founder
• Commission paid monthly
• 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
• Company laptop and phone

If you've built a career finding and winning over the best people in a competitive market, and you want the autonomy to do that your own way, backed by real trust rather than a rulebook — this is a chance to build something with real ownership and no ceiling on what you can achieve.
