We’re looking for someone with a special personality, who loves helping people and doing the right thing by their clients and candidates, in offering the very highest levels of service. We are looking for someone highly credible, with a positive, upbeat and energetic personality, who can build long-term relationships with clients and candidates, and build a reputation for being the “go to” recruiter within our sector, for their location. We have a model that works, which we can train and develop. The job can be fun and rewarding, although we need someone resilient, who can also deal with the setbacks that invariably come with the job. We are open to people from different career backgrounds, although any exposure to professional services, in particular the legal sector, would have a great advantage.
Based out of our Exeter office on Marsh Barton, we offer hybrid working, generally working 2-3 days in the office and 2-3 days from home.
We are a small team of two people, so this would be working with a close-knit environment, but with lots of flexibility, trust, autonomy and also support.
We offer a solid basic salary, as well as an exciting commission scheme, to allow people to earn an exciting overall package. However, we also work “smart”, allowing for lots of flexibility. We occasionally take calls outside of work time, but in return, you receive a lot of trust and autonomy… and you won’t be micro-managed, so we are after someone with inner drive, who can motivate themselves.
We have three values within the business, which are being “Honest, Supportive and Giving”, aiming to give more value to people than they typically expect, leaving a great impression on everyone we come into contact with. We need someone who can live these values and really believe in the approach of the business.
