Workforce is one of the West Midlands' leading recruitment firms, supplying over 700 businesses annually with high-quality, reliable staff. Since 2003, we've built a reputation for delivering results fast while providing an exceptional service to clients and candidates alike.
We're now looking for a sales-focused 360 Driving Recruitment Consultant to join our high-performing Cheltenham branch. This is a fast-paced desk with huge potential, so we're looking for someone with energy, resilience, and a strong commercial drive.
The Role: Industrial Recruitment Consultant
As a 360 Consultant in our Driving division, you'll be responsible for winning new business, filling urgent temporary vacancies, and building long-term client relationships. You'll need to thrive under pressure, be responsive to ever-changing client demands, and deliver results at speed.
Key Responsibilities
• Sales & Business Development
• Proactively develop new business through cold calling, lead generation, networking and referrals
• Identify and engage key decision-makers in logistics and transport businesses
• Build a strong sales pipeline and consistently meet/exceed monthly targets
• Promote Workforce's recruitment solutions to new and existing clients
• Attend client visits to understand recruitment needs and secure new business
• Upsell additional services, such as advertising packages and extended placements
• Recruitment Delivery
• Respond quickly and effectively to urgent client bookings, often same-day
• Write and post engaging job adverts to attract drivers across all classes
• Source, screen and register candidates efficiently, ensuring full compliance
• Manage the full recruitment cycle: vacancy brief to placement to aftercare
• Maintain strong relationships with active drivers and clients to ensure repeat business
• Keep CRM systems fully up to date for full visibility and compliance
What We're Looking For
• Experience in recruitment or B2B sales is highly desirable
• Knowledge of the driving or logistics sector is a plus but not essential
• Resilient, competitive and target-driven, with a strong work ethic
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence decision-makers
• Able to work at pace, prioritise effectively and stay calm under pressure
• Comfortable making outbound sales calls and working toward KPIs
What You'll Get in Return
£28,000 - £32,000 basic salary
• Uncapped commission with a clear, achievable bonus structure
• Salary reviews every 6 months for hitting objectives
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (increasing to 28 after 3 years)
• Day off for your birthday
• 1 paid volunteering day per year
• Ongoing coaching, training, and certified development programmes
• Career progression into senior or management roles
• Access to 24/7 GP line, mental health support and accident insurance
• High street and gym discounts
• Regular team socials, summer parties and Christmas events
