Data - Team Leader

Exceptional leaders don't just inherit teams, they build markets, create opportunities, and develop the next generation of high performers.

At Gravitas Recruitment Group, we're looking for a Data Contract Team Leader to join our London office and play a pivotal role in scaling our Contract Data practice.

This is a unique opportunity to combine personal billing success with leadership responsibility, leveraging over 16 years of established technology client relationships while helping shape the future direction of our Data division.

The demand for contract talent across Data, Analytics, AI, Machine Learning, and Data Engineering continues to grow rapidly.

Our technology teams have built long-standing relationships with hundreds of technology businesses across the UK, many of whom are actively investing in contract data talent. You'll have immediate access to established client accounts, existing opportunities, and the support of a highly respected technology recruitment brand.

As Team Leader, you'll be responsible for growing your own contract desk while developing and mentoring recruiters around you, helping create one of Gravitas' key growth areas over the coming years.

• An experienced Contract Data recruiter ready to step into leadership
