Are you looking to progress your recruitment career, or are you looking for a new career entirely? Are you a combination of ambitious & driven, personable & articulate, influential & inquisitive, sales & delivery orientated, organised & problem solving, loyal & collaborative, and/or responsible & self-motivated - and are you seeking a career development opportunity where you can see and realise the results of your hard work? Regardless of whether you are currently working in recruitment or not, your current/previous experience or educational status, if you're able to demonstrate the right character traits then we have an amazing career opportunity for you.

The Company

Informed Recruitment are a growing IT & Tech Recruitment Consultancy dedicated to the delivery of high-quality permanent recruitment & contract consultancy solutions to businesses within specialist markets in the UK.

We are currently a small group of successful, conscientious, and hard-working people, continually looking for others to grow a team of ambitious people that take their work seriously but do so in an environment where they can have fun, enjoy professional development, look after one another, be financially rewarded, and share in each other's success.

We are fiercely ambitious and competitive; however, we believe in going about our business in the right manner.

That means looking to partner with people for the long term based on trust and to deliver consistently, not to harass people or do just about anything for a quick sale.

We are searching for likeminded professionals that are bright, enthusiastic, positive, ambitious, mentally agile, conscientious, and driven - not only by money (though that is the main reason that we all go to work), but by delivering a top quality customer service and having both personal & professional pride in the work that they deliver, relationships that they build, and tenacity that they display to succeed where others do not (because that is the added value that makes work enjoyable, drives success, and ultimately maximises your return).

The Role

We are looking for suitably motivated and qualified candidates to help us evolve, provide scope, and deliver our already excellent services to more customers and candidates alike.

Whilst on paper our job is simple - find great candidates and place them with great companies - in reality the job is much tougher.

Identifying the most skilled candidates is difficult when they are likely to be in the most demand and the least likely to be overtly available on the open market, building relationships with them even more so.

Convincing companies to allow you the opportunity to fill their business-critical roles and build their teams is a real challenge - why should they trust you to do so over other suppliers? In addition, both candidates and customers are people like you and me, people who are erratic, inconsistent, impulsive, and unpredictable and that will let you down from time to time.

They all need help with their careers and engaging the right talent for their companies however, and if you can build the right relationships with the right people, base them on delivery, diligence, knowledge, trust, and consistency then that will bring with it rewards for the long term - they will use your service repeatedly, refer you to peers and friends, enhance your reputation in the market, and ensure your success breeds more success.

At Informed Recruitment we take this responsibility seriously and respect that it is hard earned, we are well known in our core markets and, in turn, respected for the way in which we work.

As a Resourcing & Candidate Consultant you will pre-screen candidates before interview for suitability and conduct interviews; keep in regular contact to review progress, performance & availability; coach candidates on interview skills/skills testing; manage Contractor availability to meet client needs; market candidate; search/shortlist candidates in line with job requirements in a timely and efficient manner; ensure CVs are of a suitable standard and reflective of requests; and provide information to candidates on clients and job specifications; and perform internal administration duties.

We have opportunities for those that wish to lead; those that wants to recruit to contract desks, permanent desks, or hybrid desks; resourcing or candidate consultants; or indirect sales & marketing.
