About Us

We are a high-growth recruitment business specialising in Investment Banking and Private Equity. We partner with everything from Top 30 Banks to Elite Boutiques to help them build high-performing teams, and we pride ourselves on delivering a consultative, relationship-first service rather than transactional recruitment.

We are now hiring a Consultant to focus on developing new client relationships in the US market. This is not just a “dial and book meetings” role — it’s an opportunity to build real commercial skill and evolve into a full 360 recruitment consultant.

Initially, you will focus on:

• Identifying and engaging new client prospects
• Building relationships with hiring managers and decision-makers
• Booking qualified meetings
• Creating new business opportunities for the recruitment team

Over time, this role will evolve into a full 360 recruitment consultant position, including:

• Managing client relationships
• Taking job briefs
• Candidate sourcing and placement
• Revenue ownership

We are looking for someone who wants a long-term career in recruitment — not just an entry-level sales role.

• Resilience and comfort with outbound calling
• Highly organised and self-motivated (remote role)
• Genuine interest in sales and recruitment
