A boutique UK recruitment consultancy is hiring a Recruitment Resourcer to own its entire candidate pipeline. Fully remote from South Africa, UK hours.
Read this bit before you apply
This is a phone job. The founder is not looking for someone who sends InMails and waits. He wants someone who picks up the phone, builds a real conversation with a stranger, and can hold that conversation with a junior sales rep in the morning and a hiring director in the afternoon. If you have ever worked a dialler and enjoyed it, say so in your application.
The role
You work directly alongside the founder, a recruiter with fifteen years in the industry who has run this exact model before and billed half a million pounds a year doing it. He keeps the clients. You own the candidates: finding them, qualifying them, and handing across the ones worth presenting.
Three to five live vacancies at a time, recruiting UK field sales professionals into FMCG, food service, finance and property. Roles start at £35 000 to £40 000, so these are serious candidates who expect a serious conversation. LinkedIn is where you find them. The phone is where you win them.
What you will do
- Call candidates at volume, every day, and qualify them properly rather than taking the CV at face value
- Source and headhunt on LinkedIn, with targeted searches and personalised outreach
- Run screening calls against detailed vacancy briefs on UK B2B sales roles
- Write clear, well-structured shortlists the founder can take straight to a client
- Keep candidates warm and informed from first contact through to offer
- Coordinate interviews and keep the pipeline and admin accurate
- Take on elements of client liaison as you earn it
