Are you ambitious, confident and looking for a career where your hard work and determination can genuinely pay off?

Right Now Group is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Junior Recruitment Consultant to join our growing team in Staines-upon-Thames.

We're particularly interested in individuals with experience in customer service, office administration, sales support or other professional, people-focused roles who are ready for a new challenge.

Previous recruitment experience isn't essential. We're looking for someone with strong communication skills, a positive attitude, commercial awareness and the ambition to build a successful career.

You'll be joining a business that rewards hard work, encourages progression and provides the training and support needed to succeed in recruitment.

The Opportunity

As a Junior Recruitment Consultant, you'll learn the fundamentals of recruitment, from identifying and interviewing candidates through to managing relationships and making successful placements.

Depending on your personality, strengths and interests, you'll have the opportunity to join either our Temporary Recruitment Division or one of our specialist Permanent Recruitment teams within Freight or Engineering.

Whether you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy building long-term relationships or have a natural flair for sales, we'll look to identify the area of recruitment where you can develop and succeed.

You'll work alongside experienced consultants, gaining hands-on experience while developing your confidence, industry knowledge and commercial skills.

Key Responsibilities

  • Proactively source and identify suitable candidates for temporary and permanent vacancies.
  • Speak with candidates over the telephone to understand their experience, skills and career aspirations.
  • Conduct telephone interviews and candidate registrations.
  • Advertise vacancies and search job boards, LinkedIn and internal databases.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with candidates.
  • Match suitable candidates to available opportunities.
  • Coordinate interviews, job offers and successful placements.
  • Maintain accurate candidate and client information within Tracker RMS.
  • Develop an understanding of our specialist recruitment markets.
  • Support consultants with client relationships and recruitment requirements.
  • Learn how to identify new business opportunities and develop commercial relationships.
  • Work towards individual activity targets and contribute to team success.

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience in customer service, office administration, sales support or a similar professional environment would be advantageous.
  • Strong communication skills and confidence speaking to people over the telephone.
  • A positive, outgoing and professional personality.
  • A genuine interest in building relationships and working with people.
  • Good organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Confidence using computers, Microsoft Office and other business systems.
  • A proactive attitude and willingness to take initiative.
  • Resilience, determination and the ability to work towards targets.
  • A competitive nature and motivation to achieve personal goals.
  • A willingness to learn, take feedback and continuously improve.
  • A strong work ethic and genuine ambition to progress.

We're not expecting you to know everything about recruitment from day one. What matters is that you have the right attitude, personality and drive to become successful.

What's in It for You?

  • Competitive basic salary with a highly competitive, uncapped commission scheme.
  • Milestone rewards and quarterly kickers.
  • H1 European incentive trip and H2 rest-of-the-world incentive trip.
  • End-of-month socials, quarterly nights out and team events.
  • 25 days' holiday, plus bank holidays and your birthday off.
  • Modern, state-of-the-art office in Staines-upon-Thames.
  • Structured training, ongoing coaching and support from experienced recruiters.
  • Genuine opportunities for career progression.
  • The opportunity to develop within our Freight, Engineering or Temporary Recruitment divisions.
  • A supportive, ambitious and energetic team environment.
  • The chance to build a long-term career with excellent earning potential.
