Job description

Director - Construction & Real Estate Recruitment | Austin Texas

• Join an established international recruitment business launching in the US
• Build and lead our Construction and Real Estate recruitment business in Austin, Texas!
• Market-leading comp package, flexibility, and strong benefits
• Clear route into leadership as the US business grows

Core Talent has built a highly successful specialist recruitment business over the last 13 years, and we are now launching and growing Core Talent US.

We’re looking for an experienced 360 / full desk recruiter to join us in Austin Texas and take the lead in launching and building our Construction & Real Estate recruitment business.

You’ll have the autonomy to develop the market, win clients, build long-term relationships, and ultimately grow a team around you, while benefiting from the backing, infrastructure, and resources of an established international recruitment company.

We’re particularly interested in recruiters with experience across Construction, Civil, Engineering, Infrastructure, Property, Real Estate, or other technical recruitment markets where those skills can transfer successfully into Construction.

You’ll have:

• Freedom to build and own your market without unnecessary geographical or client restrictions
• $100-125k base pay and uncapped commission plan
• Flexibility with start and finish times that suit both you and your desk
• Hybrid working – 3 days in office
• Open PTO policy for Lead Consultants and above
• Healthcare, Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k offered
• Support from experienced recruitment leaders that have scaled businesses for 20 years
• The opportunity to hire and lead a team as the division grows
• Significant long-term progression within Core Talent US

We’re looking for someone entrepreneurial, commercially strong, and comfortable developing new business — someone who wants more ownership than a traditional recruitment role can offer.

If you’ve ever wanted the opportunity to build your own recruitment division, without having to start a business from scratch, while being backed by industry leaders, this is it.
