The posting

Senior Recruitment Consultant - average deal £25,000 - minimum 20% commission!

Basingstoke, UK, Hybrid (3 days per week in the office, minimum)

This is not a safe hire.

This is not a 9–5.

This is not for everyone.

Our partners are a founder-led search firm operating across the GMP and Chemical sectors in Europe, North America, and India. They work on complex, high-value, and confidential RETAINED searches and we are growing quickly, but carefully.

We are now looking to add an experienced recruiter to join their business, someone who wants more than a job, someone technical - who can work within retained business and win retained searches, who wants to materially change their life through hard work, ownership, and results.

If you want comfort, structure, and clear limits on effort, this is not the role for you.

If you want responsibility, upside, and a genuine opportunity to help build something meaningful, read on.

The opportunity

This is a full 360 recruitment role, owning the entire lifecycle:

  • Winning and developing retained client relationships
  • Leading retained and exclusive searches
  • Mapping markets and headhunting senior talent
  • Managing candidates end-to-end through offer and close

You will work directly with the founders, with full visibility of how the business is run, how decisions are made, and how value is created. For the right person, this role can evolve into a future leadership position with real influence over the direction of this business.

What were looking for

We are not hiring on years alone. We are hiring on mindset.

You will likely have:

  • Proven recruitment experience, ideally within a 360 technical environment - with experience working on £100K+ roles
  • Exposure to B2B sales, business development, or closing deals
  • Evidence that you go beyond what is expected, consistently

More importantly, you will show:

  • Relentless work ethic and personal accountability
  • A genuine desire to win, improve, and outperform
  • Comfort operating without safety nets or micromanagement
  • Energy, resilience, and pride in your output

Many of the people who thrive in environments like this have competed seriously at something, sport, academics, business, or another pursuit where results matter and excuses don't. We value that edge, whatever form it comes in.

What's in it for you

  • Uncapped earning potential, directly linked to your performance
  • Close mentorship from founders with deep market experience
  • Exposure to senior-level searches and global clients from day one
  • A seat at the table as the business grows, for those who earn it
  • Long-term progression into leadership, equity, or strategic roles for the right individual

This is a chance to commit fully to your career, at the right stage of your life, and build something that rewards effort, ambition, and consistency.

Final word

We are deliberately selective.

We would rather leave the seat empty than hire the wrong person.

If you are hungry, disciplined, commercially sharp, and ready to put serious energy behind your ambitions, we would like to hear from you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
