What if you could walk into a recruitment business where the desk already exists and the clients are already spending…?

A genuine opportunity to take over warm, live desks in a recruitment business that has quietly grown from £0 to £30m turnover in just seven years - and is now gearing up for its next phase of growth.

We’re working with one of the South East’s fastest-growing construction recruitment businesses, based in Central Maidstone, who are now hiring three Principal Consultants as part of their long-term succession planning.

The good thing for you is that they are open to high-performing recruiters from any sector; so if you know how to build relationships, win business and bill well – you’ll fit right in here as the mentality is “if you can recruit, you can recruit in any sector”.

This is a business that has grown quickly, but more importantly, grown properly. The leadership team have spent the past year strengthening the structure - introducing mid-level management, improving PSL agreements, focussing on staff retention and hiring people who will improve the business.

It’s a hard-working, ambitious and energetic office, but one that also enjoys itself.

Think Friday pub at 4pm, team incentives, and a summer conference in Spain this year.

They have three different desks on offer, all at Principal Consultant level with a clear pathway to senior leadership and all desks offer a different project. Two are currently billing heavily, with the other being a sleeping giant that has billed £400k previously.

To be right for this one, you’ll need:

3+ years recruitment experience
A track record of £200k+ annual billings
Strong client development skills
Ambition to progress into leadership

This environment suits recruiters who are confident, resilient and able to build strong relationships with demanding clients.

Basic salary: £40,000 – £50,000

Commission structure

22.5% above £4k monthly billing
25% above £15k monthly billing
35% above £35k monthly billing

Top billers in the business have produced £500k+ desks.

Realistic earnings potential sits around £140k–£170k+ for high performers.

The business is primarily office-based, but operates a flexible, adult approach when needed.

If you’re a proven biller looking for the next step - whether that’s a stronger desk, a leadership pathway, or a more ambitious environment - this could be worth a conversation.
