Experience

In a nutshell we want to work with good people (as we're sure you do too!). In addition, you're a team player - that's a non-negotiable for us.

You might be an experienced recruiter looking for a move to a different environment and as such, you relish the chance to showcase your skills within a global business. Or someone with a career behind them that is looking for a new and rewarding challenge. We're keen to hear from people with varying backgrounds however you'll need to be capable of picking up the phone and speaking with new people every day - therefore experience in Sales / Business Development is often sought after.

We'd also like you to have ambition. We want people who want to be a success personally, as well as share our group success. We're looking for someone who wants a career, not just a job. We're not looking for people just to fill seats, we want people who are eager to learn who have a great attitude. You will be ethical in your approach, honest, and be able to foster trust.
