Senior Recruitment Consultant / Principal Consultant – Built Environment
An opportunity to join a new London office at launch stage, with the autonomy to build and grow your own desk.
We’re working with an established, well-regarded recruitment business within the built environment space that is launching a brand-new London office. With a strong reputation across their core markets and a successful track record in other locations, they’re now looking to replicate that success in London.
This isn’t about inheriting a patch.
It’s about taking ownership of a market, building something properly, and being part of the early growth of a new office.
The Role
You’ll be joining as a senior, 360 recruiter with the autonomy to:
- Build and develop a desk within your chosen specialism (M&E, Quantity Surveying, Building Surveying, Construction, etc.)
- Drive business development and win new client relationships
- Deliver on mid to senior-level appointments across your market
- Take full ownership of your billing, strategy, and growth
There’s no micro-management here - just the expectation that you know how to build, bill, and grow.
What They’re Looking For
- Proven experience as a 360 recruitment consultant (agency side)
- A strong billing track record
- Experience within the built environment (or a closely aligned technical/professional market)
- Someone who enjoys business development and building client relationships
- A self-starter who wants more ownership and less red tape
Why This Role Stands Out
- New London office - genuine opportunity to be part of something from day one
- Established brand with a strong reputation in the market
- Autonomy to build your own desk your way
- Clear progression as the office grows (including leadership potential)
- Supportive, non-corporate environment
Interested?
If you’re an experienced recruiter who wants more ownership, more influence, and the chance to build something meaningful - it’s worth a conversation.
