Senior Recruitment Consultant

Pertemps is the UK’s largest privately-owned recruitment agency, trusted since 1961, with over 150 branches nationwide. We are seeking a dynamic Senior Recruitment Consultant for our Hemel Hempstead Office. We are looking for an ambitious, sales-driven professional ready to build and scale strong client relationships and desk performance across both temp and temp-to-perm placements.

 

Why This Role Stands Out

• True commercial focus: Own your P&L. Drive lead generation, client acquisition, and expansions across industrial sectors—warehouse operatives, FLT drivers, logistics teams, and beyond.
• 360° autonomy: From prospecting to placement, control the full desk lifecycle with support—not hand-holding—from leadership.
• Strategic zone: Operate in the thriving Hemel area, leveraging local business networks and Pertemps’ sterling reputation for growth and service excellence.

 

What You’ll Do

• Business Development Powerhouse: Cultivate new client relationships, secure contracts, and grow revenue streams in industrial sectors.
• Client & Candidate Maestro: Manage existing accounts while delivering first-class service across temporary and temp-to-perm hires.
• End-to-End Ownership: Source, screen, interview, and place candidates; negotiate terms; and ensure client satisfaction and repeat business.
• Market Intelligence Lead: Stay ahead on local labour market trends and share insights to inform commercial strategy.

 

Who We are Looking For

• Proven track record: Significant success in recruitment (ideally), B2B sales, or senior consultative roles—especially in industrial sectors or fast-paced environments.
• Natural relationship-builder: Persuasive, confident, and skilled in fostering strong rapport with clients and candidates alike.
• Resilient & driven: A proactive self-starter who thrives under pressure and relishes the challenge of winning business.
• Local market familiarity: Knowledge of Hemel Hempstead or surrounding logistics-heavy markets is a distinct advantage.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary and unmatched commission potential your income reflects your drive.
• Ownership and autonomy in shaping your desk strategy, backed by a supportive leadership and brand infrastructure.
• Benefits package including eligibility for our company share scheme, comprehensive wellbeing support, and frequent team rewards.
• Central, accessible office with parking in Hemel Hempstead
• Pride in legacy: Join an organisation with decades of recruiting excellence and regional trust
