Olympus Recruitment
Recruitment Consultant - Hungry, Ambitious & Money-Motivated?
Chichester | Full-time
Let’s be honest…
Recruitment isn't for everyone.
It involves a lot of phone calls, plenty of rejection, chasing people who don't call you back, finding candidates who disappear at the last minute - and occasionally wondering why you ever thought this was a good idea.
But when you get it right?
It can be good fun. And you can make very good money.
We’re looking for someone who wants to build a career in recruitment and has the drive, personality and ambition to make it happen.
We’re a small, independent recruitment agency based in Chichester, specialising in Hospitality & Retail Management recruitment. We work with some brilliant businesses and brands across the UK, and we’re looking for our next recruit to join the team.
What we're looking for
We don't necessarily care whether you've worked in recruitment before.
In fact, you might be exactly what we're looking for if you're currently working in:
- Sales
- Hospitality
- Retail
- Estate agency
- Car sales
- Account management
- Customer service
- Or pretty much any job where you've had to deal with people and hit targets
What matters more to us is attitude.
We want someone who is:
Hungry. Competitive. Confident. Resilient. Money-motivated.
Someone who doesn't need to be chased to pick up the phone.
Someone who enjoys winning.
Someone who sees a "no" as a reason to try again rather than a reason to give up.
What will you actually be doing?
Recruitment is essentially a mixture of sales, relationship building, problem solving and a lot of talking to people.
You'll learn how to:
- Source and interview candidates
- Headhunt and approach people who aren't actively looking
- Build relationships with candidates and clients
- Generate new business
- Manage your own vacancies from start to finish
- Negotiate salaries and offers
- Work towards targets and KPIs
- Build your own network within the industry
- Ultimately, develop and run your own recruitment desk
And we'll teach you how to do it.
What's in it for you?
We're a small team, which means you're not going to disappear into a huge corporate recruitment machine.
You'll have genuine exposure to the whole business and the opportunity to progress quickly if you perform.
And yes - there's money to be made.
We offer a competitive basic salary alongside uncapped commission, meaning your earning potential isn't capped by how long you've been with us or what your job title says.
If you're good at recruitment and you work hard, we want you to earn well.
You'll also get:
- Full recruitment training and ongoing support
- Clear progression opportunities
- Uncapped commission
- Regular team incentives and socials
- A relaxed, friendly working environment
- The opportunity to work with some great hospitality and retail brands
- The chance to build something rather than simply inherit someone else's desk
Sound like you?
We're not looking for someone who wants to coast into a 9-5.
We're looking for someone who wants to build something, make money and have a bit of fun while doing it.
If you're ambitious, competitive and think you'd thrive in a sales environment, we'd love to hear from you.
No recruitment experience? No problem.
If you've got the right attitude, we'll teach you the rest.
