Senior Business Development Consultant

Senior Business Development Consultant | Technology Recruitment | 100% BD | Working Closely with the Founder

• Essential: IT recruitment experience (any tech vertical).
• This is a pure BD role. No candidate delivery. You must have proven experience in winning new clients.
• Contract or Perm background is OK.
• Possibilities to be an individual contributor or a future team leader, depending on your preferred career path.

We have a fantastic opportunity at Prism Digital for an experienced Business Development–focused Recruitment Consultant to join our growing team in London Bridge near Borough Market and work hand-in-hand with the Founder.

Prism is a boutique technology recruitment consultancy offering a service more akin to a search firm. We operate across Cloud, Platform, Dev Ops and wider IT, and we are deliberately doubling down on senior-level client acquisition and account growth.

This role exists to do one thing well: win and grow client relationships. You will focus entirely on:

• Winning new clients
• Building and managing senior hiring-manager relationships
• Penetrating accounts and expanding spend over time
• Acting as a trusted commercial partner to technology leaders

You will not be responsible for candidate sourcing or delivery. We have a strong, dedicated delivery team who will support everything you sell.

This is a strategic hire. The Founder is looking for a senior BD recruiter to act as a close commercial partner and help shape how Prism grows over the next few years.

What makes us different?

• Passionate about collaborating in the market. We co-organise the world's largest Dev Ops meetup - London Dev Ops, with over 11,000 members and run the London Cloud Leaders roundtable.
• Established in 2012, we have a comprehensive database of candidates and clients, providing you with a warm desk to work from.
• We invest a lot of time and money into marketing our brand so that our consultants' jobs are made easier.
• Invest heavily in recruitment software and automation tools.
• We are always open to new ideas - no suggestion is too wacky. If you think it's a cool idea, we want to hear it!
• A fun but grown-up culture based on trust and working closely as a team.

About You:

• Proven IT / Technology recruitment experience
• Strong track record in new business development and account growth
• Comfortable opening doors, leading senior conversations and holding your own commercially
• Confident networker, on the phone and in person
• Commercially sharp, emotionally intelligent, and credible with CTOs, Heads of Engineering and Platform leaders
• Motivated by ownership, influence and uncapped earning potential
• Disdain for mediocrity. You like winning.
• Relaxed and a good sense of humour.

What This Role Can Become:

Depending on your ambition, this role could evolve into:

• A player-manager leading a BD team or market vertical
• Ownership of new international markets
• A leadership role shaping Prism’s long-term growth strategy

If you want to build something rather than inherit a boxed-in desk, this is that role.

The following is on offer:

• Uncapped and up to 25% non-accumulated commission.
• Base salary promotion targets are clearly defined, with promotions attached to sales targets

Commission Scheme:

• Industry-leading and highly lucrative uncapped commission scheme @ 25%

• Our average placement fee is £13k
• No threshold/cost of desk deductions or accumulative scheme
• Hybrid Remote (we work from home on Fridays)
• Rewarding incentives - ranging from lunch clubs to holidays
• Multiple fun team days out
• Annual company trip abroad
• £100/month wellness budget
• Bike and personal laptop pre-tax interest-free loan scheme
