Recruitment Consultant

Recruitment Consultant – Power Transmission & Distribution (Contract)

Active (Pathways) Solutions specialise exclusively in recruiting experienced Mechanical, Electrical and Civil Engineering professionals within the Power Transmission & Distribution sector, including Substations and Cables. We also operate across the wider Utilities and High Voltage markets, primarily on a contract basis.

Due to an unprecedented level of contract wins and continued growth with our established client base, we are looking to recruit an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join our Bradford team and become an integral part of the business.

You might be a Senior Consultant or a Billing Manager, we will certainly consider onboarding an individual with this experience and the salary / package will reflect your expectations.

Our office is based in the BD4 area of Bradford, making it an ideal location for candidates commuting from Leeds and surrounding areas. We are close to the motorway network and offer free on-site parking.

If you are looking for a position where no two days are the same, within a specialist Power Transmission & Distribution market, and want to be part of a hardworking, approachable and no-nonsense team where your contribution is genuinely valued, then please read on.

We are a small, friendly and experienced team with a genuine family-run ethos. We work extremely hard but place real importance on maintaining an enjoyable and supportive working environment.

We are looking to recruit an individual to take ownership of an existing desk with live clients and contractors. We require someone with a strong background in sales and recruitment who can hit the ground running and continue to develop the strong relationships already in place.

The successful individual will be:

• A free thinker with strong common sense

• Empathetic and decisive

• Confident and comfortable picking up the phone

• Proactive and willing to take ownership

• A natural leader

• Organised and confident

A background in Power Transmission & Distribution would be advantageous, however we appreciate this is a niche sector. Experience within M&E, Construction or Utilities recruitment, ideally with contract recruitment experience, will be considered.

What we can offer:

• An industry full of genuine characters

• A business that carries out minimal cold sales — the majority of work comes to us - cannot stress this enough - the work comes to us because we are highly regarded in this very specialist sector

• An environment where you are treated like an adult

• Flexibility, understanding and genuine trust

• The opportunity to genuinely make your mark

• A competitive package, plus free on-site gym membership

You will need proven recruitment experience and be comfortable working in a fast-paced, office-based recruitment role.

Ultimately, your role within the organisation is to increase business levels by generating new clients and attracting new contractors to work for our existing Power Transmission & Distribution clients.

We offer genuine career progression. Hard work and results will be rewarded both financially and professionally. We are looking to recruit someone with the ambition, experience and desire to progress quickly to management level. Our continued growth has created an opportunity for an individual who wants to develop their career at pace.
