• Driving individual and team performance while contributing to the wider office’s growth.

What you’ll bring

• Essential: successful 360° contract or freelance recruitment experience within a recruitment agency or consultancy. Permanent recruitment experience could be considered as well.
• A demonstrable track record of winning clients, generating placements and growing a contract book.
• The ambition and ability to develop others, whether through formal management, mentoring or leading by example.

• Resilience, initiative and accountability, with the willingness to address difficult conversations and respond constructively to setbacks.
• Fluent English. Dutch and/or German language skills are a strong advantage.
• Based in Amsterdam or within commuting distance, and comfortable working from our Amsterdam office.

What you’ll get

• Ownership of your market and the opportunity to build your own team within an established international recruitment business.
