Recruitment Consultant - Data and AI/Transformation

Job Title: Senior Recruitment Consultant – Change & Transformation / Data & AI

Location: London Hybrid – 3 days a week in office, Who Are We?

A high-growth, people-first recruitment agency built to compete at the top end of the interim and permanent hiring markets. We run specialist desks across Transformation, Data & AI, Tech-Enabled Change, and Board-Level People & Operator Search.

We don’t believe in luck-based hiring. We believe in experts that l ead conversations, map markets, and move at pace while protecting culture.

What’s the Role All About?

This is a true 360, billing role where you will:

Run interim or permanent search mandates for Transformation or Data & AI operators

Own full-cycle recruitment – from mapping, headhunting, and engagement to closing complex senior or leadership hires

Build a retained or contingent pipeline and help drive long-term revenue impact

Step into leadership progression early – with a clearly defined path into Senior or Director-level roles

Core Responsibilities

• Lead market mapping and A-player headhunting in UK (option to support US searches)
• Build pipeline ownership across strategic change, data leadership, digital transformation, AI-product, and category-defining roles
• Deliver weekly market-intelligence, mapping insights and candidate availability trends to clients
• Run outreach and engagement at the quality-not-quantity level

What We’re Looking For

You are someone who:

• Has 360 recruitment experience in a specialist sector
• Has interim or permanent billing exposure
• Understands recruitment is intuition + system + rapport
• Is motivated by progression, co-creation and high autonomy, not just commission alone
• Doesn’t want meetings about meetings — wants action, pace, and success next to good ethics

What’s In It For You

Best-in-class onboarding with tools, coaching, and success structure from Day 1

Leadership that cares about growth, psychology of hiring, and retention

Work alongside a high-performing team who hold long-term culture & integrity as default

Progression isn’t vague — it’s mapped, structured, and accessible

Be recognised for what you do, not just what you say

Nice to Have

• Commercial or industry-aligned understanding of PE-backed transformation or data leadership teams
• Interest in moving into people-leadership or coaching as desk scales
