Are you an experienced professional looking for a challenging yet rewarding career?
Have you mastered the art of recruitment and are ready for your next adventure?
If you answered YES – to either of these questions, keep reading!
Our Ilkeston branch, near Nottingham, is seeking an enthusiastic and driven Recruitment Consultant with proven experience to join our friendly team.
If you already have a solid foundation in recruitment, backed by a track record of success, we’d love to hear from you.
Why Essential?
As an Employee-Owned company, we offer exciting opportunities for driven individuals. After 12 months with us, you’ll inherit a share in the company and gain Employee Owner status. This gives you the power to influence business decisions and make your voice heard!
We believe in cultivating a fun, exciting, rewarding atmosphere where everyone contributes and everyone benefits.
Some of our benefits include:
* Competitive and uncapped bonus schemes available from day one – we have 5 schemes available!
* Opportunity to make a significant impact and shape the future of our branch
* Regular social and company events
* 25 days annual leave + bank holidays

* Dress down Fridays
* Your own laptop / dual screen docking station
* Unrivalled training through our own Essential Academy
* Assistance from marketing, payroll and compliance teams
* The chance to join an Employee Council or Social Committee
* Just to name a few things!
Oh, plus… A perk of Employee Ownership is that a share of profits are distributed to Employees – with the first £3,600 being tax-free. Woohoo!
You know that no two days in recruitment are the same, but you can expect to be…
* Screening candidates
* Interviewing candidates
* Utilising social media to advertise roles
* Liaising with clients and building successful working relationships, along with providing excellent customer service
* Growing our existing client base, by upselling, and business development to other local companies

Hours:
* Monday to Friday, 8am – 5pm, however due to the nature of recruitment, some flexibility is required! You will also be taking our on-call phone home with you on a rota basis.
Pay:
* Up to £30,000 per year (Negotiable on Experience)
* In addition to salary, currently our Consultants are earning between £5,000 – £10,000 per year in bonus – however this is uncapped, so what you earn is up to you!
Requirements:
* Some experience in recruitment – if you do not have this, but are interested in learning, we can offer this role as a trainee position, so please still get in touch!
* A driving license / your own vehicle
