Job description

You've built a desk. You know how to win clients. You know your market. You can turn a conversation into an opportunity and an opportunity into revenue.

Now you want more ownership over what you build next.

We're growing our Amsterdam recruitment business and looking for an experienced agency recruiter who wants the freedom to build a desk properly - without being buried under layers of process, pointless KPIs or someone else's idea of how recruitment has to be done.

Looking into management? that's also a path you can take with us.

What you'll own

Your market. Your clients. Your candidate network. Your pipeline.

You'll have the freedom to develop business, build long-term client relationships and shape your desk around where you see the opportunity.

And as it grows, there is room to grow with it.

We're interested in you if

You've already proven yourself in agency recruitment.

You can win and grow business, not just service existing accounts.

You know what good recruitment looks like and don't need to be managed through a KPI dashboard.

You're commercially ambitious and still have something you want to build.

What you can expect from us

Autonomy. Trust. A strong commission structure. Real ownership.

The tools and support to perform, without turning recruitment into a numbers exercise.

We're not looking for someone who wants another Senior/Principal Consultant title.

We're looking for someone who wants their next few years to be bigger than their last few.
