Salary: £27,000 – £30,000 basic + Uncapped Commission + On-Call Allowance
Location: Birstall / Batley (WF17) – Hybrid (Up to 2 days WFH after onboarding)
The Opportunity
Nexter is a specialist recruitment agency supplying private day nurseries across West Yorkshire and London. While our Yorkshire operation is established and market-leading, our London desk represents our biggest commercial growth opportunity.
Supported by our dedicated London Business Development Manager and a high volume of inbound permanent requirements, we need a sharp, proactive Recruitment Consultant to take full ownership of the London desk from our Birstall office.
This role is ideal for a commercially driven recruiter who wants the upside of high-margin permanent fees while actively driving and scaling our temporary supply business across the capital.
What You Will Be Doing
- Temp Desk Fulfilment: Daily morning ring-rounds, managing incoming shift bookings from London nursery managers, and rapidly deploying vetted early years practitioners.
- Permanent Placements: Servicing regular inbound permanent vacancies (Room Leaders, Deputy Managers, Early Years Educators) to maximize desk revenue.
- Candidate Sourcing & Vetting: Proactive talent attraction, interviewing, and running fast-track compliance (enhanced DBS, right to work, references, qualifications) via Zoho.
- Client Engagement: Outbound phone calls to nursery clients to secure upcoming shift rosters, follow up on placements, and identify new business opportunities.
- High Activity & Pace: Managing a busy desk where speed, strong phone rapport, and commercial drive lead directly to commission.
What We Are Looking For
- Experience: 1+ years in recruitment (resourcing, delivery, or 360), estate agency, high-volume sales, or fast-paced phone-based account handling. (Education, childcare, or temp staffing experience is a major plus).
- Strong Phone Presence: Confident, articulate, and energized on the phone—you build trust quickly and pick up the receiver naturally.
- Commercially Driven: Motivated by daily shift targets, billing numbers, and maximizing your monthly bonus.
- Organised Under Pressure: Able to prioritize urgent morning temp coverage while methodically advancing permanent candidate pipelines.
What We Offer
- Competitive Base + Dual Earning Potential: £27k–£30k basic + uncapped monthly commission across temp shift volume and permanent placement fees.
- On-Call Pay: Dedicated allowance for out-of-hours rota cover.
- Modern Office & Tech: Sit-stand desks, dual monitors, modern CRM setup (Zoho), and free on-site parking in Birstall.
- Hybrid Flexibility: Up to 2 days work from home per week once fully onboarded.
- Career Growth: Direct path to Senior Consultant / Desk Lead as our London operations expand.
