Recruitment Manager
Job Title: Sales Manager or Director – Technology / IT Recruitment
Location: London
Level: Director
Salary: Up to £60,000 base + commission / bonus
The Opportunity
Our client, a specialist recruitment and search firm, is hiring a Sales Director to lead and grow its Technology / IT recruitment offering.
This role exists because demand has outgrown the current commercial structure. The business needs a senior sales leader who can win new clients, build long-term partnerships, and bring consistency to business development — not someone focused purely on managing legacy accounts.
If you’re currently leading sales, carrying a target, and still doing too much hands-on work without real influence, this role gives you clearer ownership and authority.
The Role
- Own and drive new business across Technology / IT recruitment
- Win and develop long-term client partnerships
- Lead senior sales conversations with CTOs, CIOs, Heads of Engineering, and IT leaders
- Shape commercial strategy, pricing, and sales process with leadership
- Build and support a high-performing sales function
- Work closely with delivery teams to ensure strong client outcomes
This is a hands-on leadership role with real accountability.
What Sets This Firm Apart
- Established presence in Tech / IT recruitment
- Autonomy and trust at director level
- Focus on sustainable, long-term client relationships
- London or remote working
- Clear progression and long-term incentive potential
- Straightforward, low-ego culture
You’re brought in to build — not to inherit problems.
Who They’re Looking For
- Proven experience in recruitment sales
- Strong background in Technology / IT recruitment
- Track record of winning new business
- Comfortable operating at senior stakeholder level
- Commercial, credible, and delivery-aware
This is not a junior leadership role.
What’s On Offer
- Up to £60,000 base salary (DOE)
- Commission and performance bonus
- London or remote working
- Director-level autonomy and influence
- Long-term growth opportunity
