About the Role We're looking for a driven Recruiter to join our team on a temporary basis to help build a cold construction desk (blue and white collar). This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with proven business development skills who is hungry to generate new business, re-engage lapsed clients, and establish a profitable desk in a fast-paced sector.

• Meeting and exceeding agreed sales and activity targets.
• Staying up to date with market trends in the construction sector.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience as a Recruiter, ideally within construction or a related sector.
• Strong business development skills with a proven track record of winning new clients.
• Confidence in making cold calls and overcoming objections.
• Self-motivated, target-driven, and commercially minded.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple roles.
• A professional, credible, and consultative approach.

What's on Offer

• Salary: Up to 35,000 depending on experience.
• Commission: 10-40% of billings, uncapped, with no threshold.
• Hybrid Working: 3 days in our Loughton office, 2 days from home.
