Recruitment Consultant – US Market (360)

About the company

Our client is a specialist technology recruiter, placing contract and permanent talent into IT infrastructure across the US, the UK and mainland Europe. They’ve been established for well over a decade and are focused on one thing: being the recruitment partner clients in this space trust and come back to.

They’re a genuinely people-first business, and it shows in the recognition they’ve picked up - they’re an award-winning firm, regularly named among the better places to work in the industry, and hold accreditation for running a responsible, ethical business.

The role

A genuine 360 desk recruiting into the US market from the London team, full cycle, business development through to placement. It’s not a delivery seat.

• Focus on the AI / ML / data space, building out alongside an established US-focused London team
• The US market means bigger deals and a higher earning ceiling than a comparable UK desk
• Plenty of room to shape your niche and go-to-market approach
• Hybrid roughly 2 days a week in the London office at this level
• Flexible on when you work around your contracted hours. US time zones mean the odd later call, do it because it’s worth doing, not because anyone’s watching the clock. Hours aren’t policed beyond the contract.
• Remote working is possible with prior approval from your line manager. It’s not a remote-first setup, but they’ve got people from all over and they understand you might want to visit family if they are abroad.

Working pattern

Earning potential

Uncapped commission on a clear, tiered model:

• Realistic on-target earnings build year on year, with the structure designed to take you toward six figures
• Basic salary: £50-75k depending on experience

Career progression

A clearly mapped path, so you always know exactly what’s needed to take the next step:

• From trainee through to consultant, senior consultant and principal level
• Then a choice of three directions - leading on billing, managing a team, or running delivery with routes on into management, director level and beyond
• A structured onboarding and development programme through your first 6–12 months, designed to get you billing and confident quickly
• A mix of classroom sessions, workshops, call reviews, coaching, mentoring and time shadowing senior consultants tailored to your market
• Most new starters hit their goals faster than the industry norm, with many promoted inside their first year
• Development doesn’t stop after onboarding, coaching and mentoring run all the way up to director level, with a dedicated in-house training team and input from external specialists
• Uncapped commission and a clearly mapped progression plan
• A dedicated in-house training and development team, plus training from external specialists
• Fully-funded incentive trips abroad, plus city breaks and team activity days
• Regular team lunches, social events and company-wide get-togethers
• Annual awards recognising top performers and standout newcomers
• The option of extended sabbatical breaks
• Early Friday finishes and team drinks in the office
• Sports and social clubs, football, running and more
• A referral bonus scheme
• Life insurance and confidential wellbeing / employee assistance support
• Flexible working (based on seniority)
• Relaxed dress code
• Their people come first -  a fun, friendly, collaborative environment with a real focus on developing people and making sure everyone feels valued.
• They invest in the people they hire: slower to hire, slower to fire. Get in, keep trying, and they’ll back you properly past probation.
• Values-led throughout - doing excellent work, acting with honesty and integrity, and building trusted, committed partnerships.

Benefits

Culture & values

How they hire

• A two-stage interview process -  thorough, but they move fast once they’ve met someone they like
• They’ll walk you through the full career path in person, so you can ask questions as you go
