Job Description:

Recruitment Consultant | Leicester | Advanced Engineering & Infrastructure

Umbilical Advanced is an international recruitment business supporting the future of advanced engineering and infrastructure.

Our Advanced Engineering team partners with organisations that research, develop and manufacture the products that shape how we live.

Our Advanced Infrastructure team works with those organisations building, developing and operating the physical infrastructure that makes the digital world possible.

We’re a small, intimate business with big ambitions, working with some of the world’s leading organisations across the UK, Europe and the USA.

We believe in the power of the human dimension, so we regularly get out to see our clients in person!

So, you’ll need to be up for international travel!

We’re based in Leicester’s Cultural Quarter, in a converted factory; exposed brick, big windows, loads of neon. It’s cool.

But the business we’ve built is even cooler.

The Role

This is a true 360 position, sourcing world‑class candidates and opening doors with global businesses.

For those new to the industry, we’ll teach you how to recruit through a blended learning approach.

For experienced consultants, we’ll hand you the autonomy to own some of the world’s most lucrative markets, underpinned by huge support.

The people who thrive here work exceptionally hard and immerse themselves in their markets to become genuine subject‑matter experts.

What you’ll earn

Uncapped, zero‑threshold bonus: You earn on everything you bill.

Realistic OTE: Expect to double your base in year one, with six figures genuinely attainable. We have a proven track record, and several people are earning exactly that right now.

Progression

Structured Career Path: You will progress as you bill. It’s really straightforward and is laid out in front of you.

No hidden secrets or moving goalposts. Everyone is on a path with our business!

Rewards & culture

Incentive trips: We’ve just returned from Barcelona and are locking in the next one, which you’ll be part of.

Recognition: Consultant of the Month awards and Executive Club Membership rewarding lifetime billings.

Benefits: Healthcare and additional perks along the way.

Sensible KPIs and an enviable rec‑tech stack: We measure the stuff that matters and give you the tools to execute at the highest standard. It’s a meritocratic, get‑out‑what‑you‑put‑in environment.

This year alone we’ve delivered record months, blockbuster quarters and six‑figure single fees.

The process

Two stages. You’ll meet our Senior Leadership Team and members of the team so you get a real feel for the business, it’s as much about us being right for you as you being right for us. It’s a two‑way street.

Interested?

Reach out to our MD, Ben Andrzejewski.

Ben will walk you through what we’re about and what it takes to succeed here. We’re a great gig for the right people.
