Account Manager - Recruitment

Leicester | Recruitment Agency Environment | No Sales or Business Development

Are you currently working within recruitment and enjoy managing candidates, filling vacancies and building relationships, but no longer want the pressure of sales targets, business development and cold calling?

An established and successful recruitment business is seeking an Account Manager to join its busy and fast-paced team. This is an excellent opportunity for a Recruitment Consultant, Resourcer, Delivery Consultant or Candidate Manager who wants to remain within agency recruitment but focus on delivery and account management rather than sales.

You'll be joining a lively recruitment office where the pace is fast, the workload is varied and no two days are the same. Whilst you will be working alongside consultants in a sales-driven environment, this role does not involve generating new business, cold calling or sales targets.

The successful candidate will manage existing accounts, source and engage candidates, coordinate interviews and ensure an exceptional experience for both clients and candidates throughout the recruitment process.

The Role

Managing recruitment campaigns across a variety of commercial, professional services and office-based vacancies.

Building strong relationships with existing clients and acting as a key point of contact throughout the recruitment process.

Advertising vacancies across multiple job boards, LinkedIn and social media platforms.

Searching, sourcing and engaging candidates through job boards, LinkedIn, networking and database searches.

Conducting telephone and video screening interviews to assess candidate suitability.

Managing the interview process, arranging interviews and providing feedback to both clients and candidates.

Supporting candidates through offer management, onboarding and post-placement care.

Building talent pools and maintaining candidate relationships for future opportunities.

Working closely with colleagues in a busy recruitment office environment where priorities can change throughout the day.

Ensuring excellent service levels and a positive recruitment experience for all stakeholders.

The Opportunity
