Description
Are You an Experienced Recruitment Consultant?
Are you an experienced recruitment consultant with at least 2 years agency experience and a proven billing track record?
It does not matter whether you recruit permanent, temporary or contract roles, or whether your market is UK based or international. All sectors and markets are welcome and there are options available for everyone.
If you have ever thought about doing recruitment for yourself, but felt unsure about the risk, the setup, or being on your own, this could be the right next step for you.
As a Rec2Rec specialist, I work closely with a range of carefully selected recruitment business setup partners. Each offers a different model, level of ownership and level of support, meaning there is almost always an option that fits both your experience and your long term goals.
Whether you want to build a lifestyle recruitment business or scale something larger with a view to selling in 5 to 10 years, there are proven routes available.
What These Opportunities Can Offer
Depending on the model that suits you best, options may include:

• Full ownership of your recruitment business from day one
• Majority ownership with strong operational and financial backing
• Support with company setup, branding, systems, compliance and accounting
• All core recruitment tools covered including CRM, job boards and advertising
• Ongoing mentoring and strategic business support
• Access to a network of experienced recruitment business owners

These models are designed for recruiters who want the freedom of running their own business without having to build everything from scratch.
Income Support During the Early Months
One of the biggest concerns recruiters have about going out on their own is short term financial risk.
Several of the options available include a salary or income support for the first 6 months, giving you stability while you build your pipeline, clients and revenue.
Who This Is Suited To
This opportunity is suitable for recruiters who:

• Have at least 2 years agency recruitment experience
• Work across permanent, temporary or contract recruitment
• Operate in UK or international markets
• Want greater flexibility, autonomy and financial reward
• Are considering either a lifestyle business or long term growth and exit

About Wisdom Recruitment
Wisdom Recruitment is an established Rec2Rec agency, founded in 2008. We have worked within the recruitment industry for many years and pride ourselves on long standing relationships with both candidates and clients.
There are a lot of companies offering recruitment business setup solutions. In the same way we operate across our wider client base, we are selective and only work with partners we genuinely believe offer strong, credible and well structured models.
That means any conversation with us is focused on quality, suitability and long term success, not volume. Taking the time to speak with us is always worthwhile, even if you are only at the early stages of considering your options.

Why Speak to a Rec2Rec Specialist First
There is no single right way to set up a recruitment business. The key is choosing a structure that matches your ambition, experience and appetite for risk.
My role as a Rec2Rec specialist is to understand what you want to achieve and connect you with the right setup option for you. All conversations are confidential and exploratory.
If you are curious about what running your own recruitment business could look like, a conversation is often the best place to start.
