Prime Appointments is looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant to take responsibility for our established Office & Finance permanent recruitment desk based at our Head Office in Witham.

Operating successfully for over 30 years, this division has a strong client base, existing business, an established candidate network and an excellent reputation across Essex and Suffolk. This isn't a role where you'll be expected to build a desk from scratch. Instead, you'll inherit existing relationships and a strong market presence, providing the platform to focus on what you do best - recruiting, developing client partnerships and continuing the growth of a successful division.

The Senior Recruitment Consultant role will include but is not limited to:

• Manage and develop the Office & Finance Permanent Division
• Build and maintain strong relationships with both new and existing clients
• Deliver consultative recruitment solutions across a range of office and finance positions
• Source, interview and qualify candidates through a variety of channels
• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle from job on through to placement
• Provide clients with market insight, salary benchmarking and recruitment advice when needed
• Generate new business opportunities through proactive business development activity
• Attend client meetings both virtually and face-to-face
• Maintain regular communication with clients and candidates throughout the recruitment process
• Work towards agreed weekly KPIs and monthly revenue targets while driving the continued growth of the division
• Act as a trusted recruitment partner, delivering exceptional service and long-term value

About you:

• Previous recruitment experience is essential, ideally within permanent recruitment
• A successful track record of billing and developing client relationships
• Strong business development and account management skills
• Excellent communication, negotiation and relationship-building abilities
• Self-motivated, driven and ambitious with a genuine desire to succeed
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of a desk
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• A professional and consultative approach to recruitment

Package:

• £34,000 - £36,000 basic salary
• Uncapped monthly commission
• Expected OTE of £50,000+ in year one
• Flexible working hours between 8.00am and 5.30pm (40-hour week)
• 22 days annual leave, increasing with service to 27 days, plus Bank Holidays
• Birthday off after one full calendar year of service
• Pension salary sacrifice scheme
• Subsidised gym membership
• 3 team events per year
• Free on-site parking
• Cakes twice a month to celebrate team birthdays
• Fresh fruit provided weekly
• Hot sandwiches on payday

Prime Appointments has been recruiting across Essex and Suffolk for 34 years and remains a family-owned business focused on building long-term relationships with clients, candidates and employees alike.
