Recruitment Director – Build your Own Recruitment Business
Location: Northern England
About the Role
You’ve thought about launching your own recruitment business.
You like the idea of creating something that’s yours, building a team, developing a market and making the key decisions.
What you’ve probably questioned is whether you want the financial risk, operational headaches, and years it takes to build a brand from scratch.
This opportunity offers a different route.
Our client is a successful, well-established independent recruitment business with an outstanding reputation, strong profitability and ambitious growth plans. They’re looking for an entrepreneurial recruiter to launch and lead a new division with full backing from the business.
This isn’t about inheriting a team. It’s about building one.
This isn’t about managing an existing P&L. It’s about creating one.
And this isn’t about being another manager in a large corporate structure. It’s about becoming the driving force behind the next stage of growth
What You’ll Have
- Freedom to develop your own market proposition.
- Autonomy to shape the division’s strategy and direction.
- Investment to build a team as the division grows.
- Operational, marketing, technology and leadership support already in place.
- The credibility and reputation of an established independent business behind behind you.
- A leadership team that understands recruitment and backs good ideas.
What You’ll Do
- Build and grow a new recruitment division from the ground up.
- Win and develop client relationships within your chosen market.
- Create a clear growth strategy and business plan.
- Establish the culture, standards and identity of the division.
- Recruit, mentor and develop your own team.
- Drive revenue growth and establish a high-performing business unit.
Who We’re Looking For
You’ll likely be a Senior Consultant, Principal Consultant, Team Leader, Manager or Director who possesses both strong billing credentials and genuine entrepreneurial ambition.
You’ve probably reached the point where you’re asking: “Could I build something of my own?”
We’re looking for someone who combines commercial instinct with the ability to execute. Someone who enjoys winning business, spotting opportunities, building relationships and creating high-performing teams.
Most importantly, you’ll be excited by the opportunity to create value rather than simply maintain it.
What’s In It For You?
- Genuine autonomy.
- Significant earning potential.
- Leadership influence from day one.
- The opportunity to build a business without the risk of going it alone.
- A clear pathway towards senior leadership.
- The chance to leave a lasting mark on a successful independent recruitment company.
For the right recruiter, this is more than a career move. It’s an opportunity to build something with real value, real backing and real long-term potential
