Senior Recruitment Consultant

There are plenty of recruitment jobs where the opportunity is essentially the same:

Join an established team, work somebody else's market, hit somebody else's KPIs, hopefully get promoted in a couple of years.

This isn't that.

Altura Search is approaching the next stage of its growth and we're looking for an experienced recruiter who wants to play a genuine part in it.

In just over four years, we've made more than 350 placements and built relationships with over 150 property and construction consultancies across the UK.

Now we're looking for ambitious recruiters who can help us build what comes next.

You’ll take ownership of a specialist market within the built environment, with the autonomy to develop it as your own.

You’ll have access to an established client base, existing relationships across many of the UK's leading consultancies, a recognised brand within our markets and a business that has spent the last four years building its reputation.

You’ll be responsible for developing client relationships, building your candidate network and managing recruitment processes from initial conversation through to placement.

You’ll have the freedom to recruit properly rather than being managed around arbitrary activity targets.

But with that autonomy comes accountability.

We’re ambitious about where we’re taking Altura and we’re looking for people who share that ambition.

You’ll already have recruitment experience and understand what it takes to build a successful desk.

You don’t necessarily need experience recruiting within property or construction.

We’re far more interested in whether you’ve demonstrated that you can develop relationships, generate business, manage processes and consistently create opportunities.

We’re looking for someone with:

• 2+ years' recruitment experience
• A demonstrable track record of billing
• The confidence to build senior client relationships
• High personal standards and integrity
• Resilience and genuine self-motivation
• The ambition to build something rather than simply inherit a job

Most importantly, we want someone who wants to progress.

As far as your performance takes you.

We’re deliberately building a small, high-performing recruitment business rather than chasing headcount for the sake of it.

That creates genuine opportunities for the people who join us now.

Senior Consultant can become Principal Consultant, Associate Director and ultimately Director, whether your strength is developing your own market, building a team or a combination of both.

As Altura grows, we want the people who help us build it to grow with it.

• £35,000–£45,000 basic salary depending on experience
• Established client relationships and an existing platform to build from
• Ownership of your own specialist market
• Hybrid working – 3 days in our Gerrards Cross office, 2 from home
• Direct access to recruiters with over £5m in career billings
• Clear progression through to Director
• A small, ambitious team where your contribution will genuinely matter

We’re not looking to become the biggest recruitment company. We want to build one of the best specialist recruitment businesses in our market.

If you’re already a good recruiter but feel you’ve got considerably more in you, we’d love to have a conversation.
