Recruitment Consultant

Andy File Associates is an independent recruitment agency founded in 2009. We are a team of 6, predominately working on permanent recruitment, with over 110 years' experience between us.

Following a substantial increase in temporary recruitment needs we're now looking for a 360 Recruitment Consultant to add to our team. This role will involve both new business development and key account management for both temporary and permanent recruitment across a number of key accounts mostly within Engineering, Technical, Facilities Management and Manufacturing. Clients are predominantly based in Chesterfield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield however we do recruit throughout the UK for some. Ideally we're looking for someone within easy commute to all these areas. The role can either be home based or based out of Rotherham or Sheffield. Everyone in the team is currently working remotely, from client sites and occasional use of Aizlewoods Mill, Nursery Street in Sheffield which is a service office facility. We'd happily look at a fixed office for the right applicant.

We are open to candidates with all levels of experience as this could also be an exciting opportunity for someone who is a Senior Consultant with the ambition / ability to become a Business Manager for us within 6-12 months and then add to their own team (which would come with a salary increase plus car allowance). We have a clear career ladder with new business development and revenue targets.

The role will be a mixture of new business development and key account management.

• Marketing out candidates to our clients and new businesses

• Visiting client sites to understand their recruitment requirements, register candidates and conduct interviews
• Live updating of Firefish our in-house Recruitment CRM system
• Working within relevant legislation and our terms of business
• Other reasonable duties required by the business

Hours 8am - 4pm or 9am - 5pm however some flexibility will be required/given as occasionally interviews will need to be done in the evenings and for the predominantly industrial/construction/engineering temporary staff, candidates may occasionally need checking in earlier on client sites. The role will also include being on call with some candidates working 6am - 2pm and 2pm - 10pm shifts.
