Senior Recruitment Consultant

Location: Remote (UK-based, North West preferred)

Salary: Competitive + Uncapped Commission + Leadership Opportunity

A high-growth, specialist technology recruitment business is seeking an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join its fully remote team.

Operating globally, the company partners with start-ups and scale-ups (Seed to Series B) to build high-impact teams across Go-To-Market and Product functions. It works closely with founders and leadership teams, positioning itself as a genuine talent partner rather than a transactional recruiter.

This hire will play a key role in the next phase of growth—either as a high-performing individual contributor or as an early-stage team leader, with the opportunity to build out a desk and a team.

This is a remote-first role offering significant autonomy, trust, and progression.

The successful individual will work directly alongside the founder, receiving hands‑on support and development while helping to scale the business. The position suits someone who has already proven themselves in recruitment and is now looking for more ownership, flexibility, and long‑term upside.

There are two clear pathways:

• Senior Consultant: Build and scale a high‑performing desk within a specialist vertical
• Team Lead (Emerging): Begin shaping a team, mentoring junior consultants, and becoming a key figure within the business

• Win and develop new business with high‑growth tech companies globally
• Build relationships with founders, hiring managers, and senior stakeholders
• Deliver consultative, high‑quality recruitment solutions aligned to long‑term hiring strategies

• Identify, engage, and place high‑calibre talent across Go‑To‑Market and Product roles
• Operate across international markets (Europe, US, APAC)
• Manage end‑to‑end recruitment processes with a focus on quality over volume

• Develop deep knowledge of tech hiring trends within start‑up and scale‑up environments
• Act as a trusted advisor to both clients and candidates
• Contribute to market insights and strategic hiring discussions

This role is suited to a recruiter who is credible, thoughtful, and relationship‑led—not overly sales‑driven, but commercially sharp and principled in their approach.

• Minimum 1+ year experience in recruitment
• Proven track record of winning business

• Intelligent, articulate, and consultative in approach
• Down‑to‑earth with strong relationship‑building skills
• High integrity—focused on doing the right thing for clients and candidates
• Self‑motivated and comfortable working in a fully remote environment
• Commercially aware without being overly aggressive in sales style

• Background or strong interest in sport (particularly team sports) is advantageous
• Experience in tech, SaaS, or start‑up recruitment is beneficial
• North West‑based candidates preferred, though not essential

• Fully remote model with a high‑trust, autonomous environment
• No micromanagement—output and quality are prioritised
• Clear pathway into leadership or senior individual contributor role
• Opportunity to build a team and take on significant responsibility

• Work closely with the founder with ongoing support and development
• Real influence over business growth and direction

• Competitive base salary with uncapped commission
• Opportunity to build a highly profitable desk

The business prides itself on a transparent, relationship‑led approach to recruitment. It values quality over volume, long‑term partnerships over quick wins, and professionalism without ego.

The environment is collaborative, grounded, and built around mutual respect—suited to individuals who are serious about their career but prefer a more mature, less “sales‑heavy” culture.

This is an opportunity to join a growing business at an early stage and play a meaningful role in its expansion.

Whether focusing on building a high‑performing desk or stepping into leadership, the successful individual will have the platform, support, and autonomy to shape their own long‑term career.
