Job description

​Our client is seeking a Delivery Consultant to join their growing recruitment business on a permanent basis. This will be the business's first dedicated delivery hire, making the successful candidate a key member of the team and the founder's right hand on delivery.

The primary focus of the role will be to deliver and resource vacancies generated by the founder, while building a strong candidate network that creates long-term value beyond individual vacancies.

This is not a transactional CV-sending role. The successful candidate will be expected to develop genuine candidate relationships and build a strong community of professionals that can be engaged for future opportunities.

Working Model

Remote

The role will primarily support the UK market, with a focus on senior-level interim professionals.

The successful candidate will need to be comfortable working independently, managing multiple vacancies and delivering candidates at pace.

What You'll Be Recruiting

The strongest background would be within the UK senior-level interim market, particularly across:

  • Senior Interim Recruitment

  • Education Leadership

  • Social Care

  • Charities

  • Local Authorities

  • Housing

  • Healthcare, particularly operational and service management

  • Senior IT and Technology Professionals

Education recruitment can be highly relevant, particularly where the candidate has experience recruiting senior education leaders and interim professionals.

A predominantly transactional teacher recruitment background is less aligned to the role and market.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver and resource vacancies generated by the founder.

  • Take ownership of the candidate delivery process from sourcing through to placement.

  • Build and nurture a strong candidate network and community.

  • Develop long-term relationships with candidates rather than relying solely on vacancy-by-vacancy sourcing.

  • Source candidates through existing networks and candidate relationships.

  • Utilise CV Library, LinkedIn Premium, job boards and CV databases.

  • Use sourcing and business intelligence tools such as Apollo and Instantly.

  • Identify and engage relevant senior-level professionals.

  • Maintain regular communication and engagement with candidates.

  • Keep candidates warm throughout the recruitment process.

  • Manage candidate compliance and referencing.

  • Ensure candidates are fully prepared and supported throughout the process.

  • Deliver suitable candidates within 24–48 hours where required.

  • Work closely with the founder to understand vacancies, priorities and candidate requirements.

  • Take ownership of delivery targets and ensure vacancies are progressed efficiently.

  • Continuously develop the candidate network to support future delivery.

What We Are Looking For

  • Previous recruitment experience is essential.

  • Ideally 2–5 years of recruitment experience.

  • Experience recruiting within the UK market.

  • Strong candidate delivery and sourcing capability.

  • Comfortable working at pace and delivering against tight requirements.

  • Able to identify and engage high-quality candidates quickly.

  • Strong communicator with excellent relationship-building skills.

  • Smart, switched-on and outgoing.

  • A genuine grafter with a strong work ethic.

  • Comfortable communicating with senior-level professionals.

  • Able to work independently and take ownership.

  • Commercially aware with a focus on delivering results.

  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.

  • Experience within senior interim recruitment would be highly advantageous.

What's on Offer

  • Permanent employment through an EOR (Employer of Record).

  • Fully remote working environment.

  • Opportunity to become the first dedicated delivery hire within the business.

  • Direct exposure to the founder and senior leadership.

  • Opportunity to build and own a valuable candidate community.

  • Exposure to senior-level UK interim recruitment.

  • Genuine progression into delivery management, leadership or client-facing recruitment.

  • Opportunity to play a key role in shaping the delivery function as the business grows.

  • Salary of £1,200–£1,300 per month.
