Salary: £30,000–£40,000 + uncapped commission
OTE: circa £60,000
This is a growth-focused 360 recruitment role in the construction sector, suited to someone who has done recruitment before and now wants the space to build properly.
The brief is simple: generate new business, win clients and grow revenue. This is not a warm-desk maintenance role. The successful person will be expected to show initiative, open doors and build their own client base, with support around them when needed.
Key Responsibilities
Generate new business through outbound activity, meetings, calls and networking.
Build and manage a client portfolio from scratch.
Run the full 360 recruitment lifecycle.
Identify commercial opportunities and act on them quickly.
Work with internal support to fulfil roles and deliver for clients.
Build a consistent pipeline and revenue stream for the Colchester office.
Candidate Profile
Previous experience in a 360 recruitment role.
Likely to suit someone raw, hungry and on the way up rather than a finished article.
Confident with business development and outbound activity.
High-agency, self-starting and comfortable working without heavy hand-holding.
Commercial, resilient and target-driven.
Wants a role where commission can materially increase earnings.
Why Join
Clear opportunity to build something and make an impact.
Strong commission potential.
Supportive environment without heavy micromanagement.
Direct contribution to the growth of the Colchester office.
