Oliver James is an award-winning global recruitment and talent solutions business, founded in Manchester in 2002. We partner with organizations across financial services, insurance, professional services, and commerce and industry, placing specialist professionals through permanent recruitment, contract and temporary staffing, and executive search.

Oliver James USA opened in New York in October 2015 and expanded into Charlotte in 2019. Since 2020, our US business has grown revenue by 351% and headcount by 349%, and our New York office consistently produces 10–15 of the Group’s Global Top 20 billers. We specialize across four core markets: Finance, Audit, Risk & Compliance; Actuarial & Banking; Underwriting, Broking, Claims & Legal; and Change & Technology.

We are looking for an AVP to join our Claims team in New York. This is a specialist role focused on the Claims New York market, working closely with our client-facing consultants and a SVP who is one of Oliver James’ global top billers. You’ll take ownership of client development and candidate delivery across a high volume of permanent mandates.

The role supports an SVP and top biller within the Oliver James NYC office. This is a high-demand, high-output position — ideal for an established 360 recruiter who wants to focus on working a specialist market and have the opportunity to become a top biller themselves.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Running a full 360 desk within Claims Insurance
• Leading senior-level client conversations with confidence and authority
• Headhunting high-calibre talent with strong qualification discipline
• Collaborating across teams to cross-sell and scale client partnerships
• Creating opportunities for yourself and the wider business

Who We’re Looking For

• A confident, commercially sharp 360 recruiter (either contract or perm)
• Minimum 5-7 years recruitment experience
• Comfortable leading meetings with senior clients
• Collaborative – you share leads, candidates, and intelligence
• Entrepreneurial within a framework
• $400-600k consistent annual billings
• Able to work in a hybrid capacity from our New York office (relocation support available for eligible UK citizens).

To be successful in this role, you will:

• Own your desk and your results, and hold yourself to a high standard
• Listen first and listen long – understand candidates deeply before advising them
• Be flexible, adapting your approach to different markets, candidates and clients
• Build others: share what works and help newer team members improve
• Lead from the front with your activity, standards and attitude

Why Oliver James

• Progression you can see: a transparent Promotion Pathway with clear billing and training criteria at every level. Our people reach their first promotion in under 10 months on average, and high performers have gone from Associate level to VP+ in under three years.
• Earning potential: uncapped commission, an average perm fee of around $35K and 12+ Million Dollar Billers in the US business.
• A platform to deliver on: established client accounts, a dedicated Enterprise team driving retained, exclusive and project-based hiring, and a powerful Salesforce CRM.
• Development: tailored 1:1 coaching from our award-winning Talent Development team, group peer learning, leadership courses, our online learning platform (The Vault), exposure to SVPs and international opportunities across the Group.
• Culture: hybrid working, a 1.5-hour lunch break, quarterly Lunch Club for top performers, an annual Million Dollar Biller trip, team events and an office in Rockefeller Center.
