Recruitment Consultant - London

Real success is down to nature AND nurture!

Now that you are a Recruitment Consultant and know you have the attitude required to succeed, are you sure you are in the best place to realise your aspirations?

Empiric is an award-winning* technology recruitment company. Our success is built on the platform we provide for our people to flourish (*Think five consecutive years as a Sunday Times Fast Track 100 UK Company and #1 Best Mid-Sized Company to Work For as examples. We have more but want to appear humble).

The approach is simple: give brilliant people the tools, support, and freedom to go and be brilliant. You are in recruitment to achieve your financial, career and personal goals, and at Empiric, we will be with you on every rapid step of that journey. No speed cameras.

Financial Aspirations

We know that, above all else, being a successful Recruiter is a path to financial freedom. That is why our approach puts personal financial rewards front and centre:

• We are positioned at the very top of the specialist IT Recruitment market. Our margins, as well as the average salaries and rates of the individuals we place, reflect that. Specialist Recruiters earn more.
• There is no such thing as a ‘Soft Landing’ in Recruitment. But with almost twenty years in our market, hundreds of paying customers, many of whom are blue chip, international businesses, and guaranteed jobs to work on day one, there are harder places for you to start a new desk.
• Placements are how you make money, so we spend heavily on giving you the Tools to make as many of them as possible. As standard, you will get – LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn Talent Insights, LinkedIn Adverts, access to multiple Job Boards, Lusha, Ebsta, Daxtra and Salesforce. We will always invest in ways to make your job easier.
• We have a sizeable and passionate Operations & Marketing Team. They aim to ‘clear the runway’ for you so that you can fly. With less ‘Admin’ comes more time to do what you are best at.
• And once you make placements, we will pay you more for completing those placements than you would receive at any comparable Recruitment Business. We have no threshold, and our commission scheme acceleratesquickly to 35%.

Career Aspirations

As well as ownership over your earnings, we want you to have ownership over your career. And True Career Ownership looks like having the Skills, Knowledge, and Opportunity to turn your work into what you want it to be. At Empiric that means:

• Clear, transparent, and uniform Promotion Criteria open to all. We don’t promote on Tenure; we promote on Performance. And due to our mentality of ‘unlimited growth’, there is never a wait to take up a position you have rightfully earned.
• ‘Market Leading L&D’ gets thrown out a lot in Recruitment Consultant Job Adverts. But with 1 full-time member of our Learning & Development Team for every 20 Recruitment Consultants, you can judge us on our actions, not our words. Think bespoke, embedded and forward-thinking learning each day.
• Great people become great by being surrounded by great people. Daily, you will work with Recruitment Professionals recognised across our industry as some of the best.
• Our entire Personal Development Programme is designed to make you the best version of yourself, not just the best Recruiter you can be.

Personal Aspirations

We are a group of like-minded, high-performing individuals. But we are also all wonderfully unique. Whatever your hobbies, interests or passions, at Empiric, you will find a vehicle to pursue the things that matter to you:

• As we operate in over 40 countries and have six offices across Europe and the USA, we support our people in travelling, working, and even relocating fully to the places they want to be. You could join an existing team or even break out to create office number seven.
• Social Enterprise and Charity Work is more important now than ever. We are proud to support our people in supporting the causes that matter to them. We would be equally proud to support you in causes that matter to you.
• We cannot complete your Bucket List for you, but we may be able to help. We run once-in-a-lifetime Holiday Incentives multiple times each year (work that one out). We also regularly take our team out for incredible dining experiences or trips to major sporting events each month. Think Mexico, think Royal Ascot, and think many, many Michelin Stars along the way.
• Along with incredible experiences throughout the year, our End of Year Awards allow us to present tailored and truly special gifts to our most successful teammates. Only you can tell us what your special gift will be when the time comes!

You

If this sounds like an upgrade in your current situation, and you would like to work in a high-performing, collaborative and ambitious environment, you may have found a home.

What we look for in you:

• We value our culture above all else, so we are very selective on who joins the team. Beyond any practical experience, we place immense importance on the person you are. The key attributes we look for are Resilience, Drive, Curiosity, and your ability to be a Team Player.
• Recruitment Experience – 12 Months Plus. Your first six months in recruitment are a blur. We would like you to have another six months to figure things out properly. That way, when you join us, you can be sure we are right for you.
• Business Development Experience – To achieve Financial Freedom, you must speak to Clients and Win Business. Any experience of this would be beneficial.
• IT / Technology Markets Experience – It would be fantastic if your Recruitment or Sales experience is in the Tech Sector.

Take these in order of importance. If you hit on the first bullet point, we would encourage you to apply. Our incredible Learning & Development Team can handle any gaps in the rest. If you hit on all four, we are on to something here!
