Do you understand the dynamics of contract and project-based working — either from working in fast-paced environments yourself or from a professional background that has given you exposure to flexible workforce models? We are looking for an inquisitive and commercially minded individual to join our specialist Contract & Interim desk as a Market Researcher.

Skills / Experience:
A background with exposure to contract, project-based, or interim working environments — either through a relevant degree, direct industry experience, or time spent in a professional services or staffing environment.
Minimum of one year in an office or professional environment where pace, accuracy, and relationship management were important.
Strong research skills and a methodical approach — comfortable working with databases, tracking pipelines, and managing a high volume of information.
Commercially aware with an interest in workforce trends, talent supply, and market dynamics.
Excellent communication skills — able to build rapport quickly and engage credibly with experienced professionals.
Highly organised, self-motivated, and able to manage competing priorities in a fast-moving environment.
Motivated to build expertise and progress within a specialist contract and interim recruitment desk.
Core Responsibilities:
Research and map contractor and interim talent pools across finance, professional services, and related markets.
Maintain and manage an up-to-date pipeline of available contractors and interim professionals, tracking availability, rates, and placement history.
Source candidates through LinkedIn, specialist networks, job boards, and our established CRM system.
