\n

\n
• Demonstrable intelligence, first and foremost. We care how you think, and we'll probe it properly in interview. Come ready to show how you've worked through hard problems, in or out of work.
\n
• Real curiosity and commercial instinct. You read a situation, find the angle, and act on it.
\n
• A hunter mentality and the work ethic to sustain it.
\n
• Resilience and the appetite to build a desk from scratch.
\n
• The adaptability to pick up our systems, processes, and data integrity standards fast, and the discipline to own them rather than treat them as box ticking.
\n
• This suits people relatively early in their working lives, whether you're a year or two out of university or making an early move into recruitment from another commercial field. Recruitment experience is welcome but not required. Where you do have it, it counts when it comes with current drive, not a reputation you're living off.

This probably isn't the right move if you prefer inbound work to proactive relationship building, want close supervision, or are uncomfortable with performance based pay. If you're smart, hungry, and want a long term career with real upside, we should talk.
