Sales experience? Ready to take your career to the next level?If you're already working in sales, business development, B2B sales, telesales or a target-driven environment and you're looking for a career where your performance can directly influence your earnings and progression, recruitment could be the perfect next move.
We are looking for driven, commercially minded sales professionals to join our high-performance recruitment team.
You don't need recruitment experience. If you know how to build relationships, generate opportunities, handle objections, close deals and consistently hit targets, we'll teach you the recruitment side.
Why Recruitment?Recruitment is one of the most commercially rewarding careers for ambitious sales professionals.
You'll be responsible for winning new business, developing client relationships, identifying opportunities, negotiating deals and ultimately delivering results.
Your performance is measurable, your progression is transparent and your earning potential is uncapped.
If you're competitive, resilient and motivated by results, you'll thrive here.
What You'll Be Doing- Generating new business through outbound calls, networking and business development
- Building and developing relationships with senior decision-makers
- Winning new clients and securing recruitment opportunities

- Estate agency
- Insurance sales
- Financial services
- Hospitality sales
- Retail sales
- Door-to-door sales
- Any target-driven commercial environment
More importantly, we're looking for people who are:
- Commercially driven – you enjoy winning business
- Target-focused – you want to hit and exceed your numbers
- Resilient – rejection motivates you rather than discourages you
- Competitive – you want to be the best performer in the room
- Confident – you're comfortable speaking with new people and senior stakeholders
- Hard-working – you're willing to put in the work required to succeed
- Ambitious – you want progression based on performance
- Money motivated – you want your earning potential to reflect your results
- Coachability – you're open to feedback and constantly looking to improve
We're building a high-performance, results-driven recruitment environment where ambitious people can accelerate their careers.
You'll receive structured training, regular coaching and the tools to become a successful recruitment consultant, with a clear path into senior and leadership positions.
You'll also receive:
- Competitive basic salary

- Performance-based promotions
- Regular incentives and competitions
- Structured training and development
- High-performing team environment

If you've already learned how to prospect, build relationships, overcome objections and close, you're already ahead.
Recruitment gives you the opportunity to take those skills into an industry where every conversation can create revenue and every placement can directly impact your earnings.
We're not looking for people who simply want a job.
We're looking for hunters, competitors and high performers who want to build a serious career in recruitment.
