Are you a proven recruiter with Professional Services experience looking for something genuinely new, not just another desk, but a chance to help build a brand-new office from day one?

We’re partnering with an established, high-reputation specialist recruitment firm launching a new London office who would love to talk to senior, experienced consultants who want more ownership, more support, and more upside.

This is a rare opportunity to join early, shape your market, and build your brand within a well-respected, well-networked business that already has deep client relationships across regulated and professional sectors.

• Real progression, leadership and team build opportunities

• Competitive basics (£45–70k) and highly rewarding commission structure including:

• 25% between £20–30k

• 30% between £30–50k

• 50% £50k+

• Grown-up environment, autonomy over your desk and strategy

• Established brand, established leadership, start-up energy in London

What you’ll be doing

• Building and growing a Professional Services recruitment desk

• Winning and developing client relationships

• Delivering high-quality permanent and/or contract recruitment solutions

• Becoming a recognised specialist in your vertical market

• Contributing to the growth and culture of the new office

What we’re looking for

• Proven billing history in Professional Services recruitment (or closely aligned verticals)

• Strong BD capability and client ownership mindset

• Consultative, relationship-first approach

• Track record of working complex, specialist roles

• Ambition to be part of an early-stage office build

• Team player with leadership potential

Ideal for recruiters who want

• A bigger platform without corporate red tape

• A voice in how an office grows

• Access to strong markets and established sector credibility

• Progression into leadership as the London team expands
