You’re already a good recruiter.

You know how to find people, speak to people, build trust quickly and turn a conversation into a placement.

But maybe you’re starting to wonder what happens next.

Not in the “I need a foosball table and a better job title” kind of way. More in the “I want to work on bigger mandates, with more senior people, in markets where relationships actually matter” kind of way.

That’s where this comes in.

You’ll be joining a specialist recruitment business in Southampton. Fewer than 20 people in a tight-knit ambitious business who are already operating globally.

Small enough that your voice will be heard. Serious enough that the standards are high, the billings are strong, and the people around you know exactly what they’re doing.

This time, they’re looking for someone to join their executive search practice.

So rather than throwing CVs at vacancies and hoping something sticks, you’ll be building proper relationships with senior leaders, founders, investors, boards and high-performing candidates. You’ll be trusted to map markets, approach hard-to-reach people, understand what makes them tick and help businesses hire the kind of leadership talent that can genuinely change their direction.

It’s recruitment, yes.

But done with more depth, more strategy and bigger conversations.

You might already be in executive search. You might be a 360 recruiter in another specialist market who wants to move into retained work and senior-level hiring. You may have recruited in engineering, maritime, renewables, technology, finance or something completely different.

The sector matters less than the way you work.

You’ll need to be credible with senior people. Comfortable picking up the phone. Curious enough to understand a business properly, not just skim a job spec. Resilient enough to keep going when the obvious candidates are not the right ones. And ambitious enough to want bigger fees, better conversations and a clearer path forward.

• A warm platform in a high-potential market.
• Uncapped commission, with very generous percentages at higher thresholds.
• £4,000 every year for your own learning and development.
• 29 days holiday plus bank holidays.
• Private medical cover.
• A tech stack that actually helps you recruit better.
• International travel opportunities.
• Team incentives.
• And a business that genuinely invests in people who want to do this properly.

There’s also a clear path into leadership, if that’s where you want to go.

Because this is not a place looking for passengers. It’s a business looking for recruiters who want to build something, own something and be surrounded by people who take their work seriously without taking themselves too seriously.

So if you’re a 360 exec recruiter with solid billing experience, or you’re ready to step into executive search, let’s talk.

Send your CV. Drop me a message. Pick up the phone.

Whatever works for you.

Because the best moves usually start with a good conversation.
