About Us

We are a growing recruitment agency committed to connecting exceptional talent with outstanding opportunities. As part of our next phase of growth, we're looking for ambitious, driven individuals to join our small team as commission-based Business Development Consultants.

Whether you're experienced in recruitment or come from a strong sales or business development background, this role offers full autonomy, flexibility, and high earning potential.

The Role

As a Business Development Consultant within the Education & Childcare sector, you will be responsible for:

• Staying up-to-date with sector trends, funding changes, and staffing challenges to identify new opportunities

This role is 100% commission-based. You will earn £300–£500 per successful candidate placement. This payment is made once a lead you have submitted converts into a confirmed placement with the client. The more placements generated, the more you earn.
