- Be part of a down-to-earth, driven team that celebrates success, from nights out to our annual European getaway for top performers.
What you'll be doing
- Manage and grow our existing healthcare client relationships across West Yorkshire, delivering a high standard of service.

- A genuine appetite for business development, with the drive to win new clients as well as manage existing ones.
- Confidence in building rapport and trust with clients and candidates alike.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- A competitive, driven and ambitious mindset, always looking to win and progress further.
- The resilience and energy to thrive in a fast-paced environment.
- A UK driving license and own vehicle is preferred.
How you'll benefit
- A lucrative, uncapped commission structure that rewards your performance.
- Car allowance at Senior Consultant level and above
- Access to premium recruitment tools, including industry-leading job boards.
- Full back-office and marketing support, so you can focus on what you do best.
