• 24.5 days holiday rising to 30 with your grade, including time off between Christmas and New Year, plus your birthday off
• Enhanced maternity and paternity scheme, with a genuine track record of flexible working for parents
• Pension scheme, cycle to work scheme, season ticket loan for those outside the M25
• Structured entry-level and ongoing training, a dedicated L&D trainer, external expert coaching, and clear progression plans mapped out from Associate Consultant through to Director
• Lunch club, annual top-biller trip, summer and Christmas parties, incentives for early Friday finishes

Who they're after:

• A proven high achiever who wants brilliant results for their customers and their teammates
• Someone individually motivated but who genuinely wants to be part of a team
• Someone who loves to learn, listens well, and thrives in a feedback-rich environment

Why this business stands out:

• 12 years recruiting into the digital space, with an enviable reputation as an employer; voted Best Small Company to work for and Best Recruitment Company in the UK
• A market presence built on industry events, a well-listened-to sector podcast, and genuine authority across brands, technology vendors, publishers and agencies
• Attrition under 5%, with over a quarter of staff having stayed 8+ years,  people tend to build long careers here, not just jobs
• A clear, bespoke career framework (A to F) with at least one progress review a year and defined promotion targets, so you always know what unlocks the next step
