About the job Senior Recruitment Consultant – Diagnostics & IVD
The Opportunity
A high-performing, specialist recruitment firm operating exclusively within the global medical device industry is seeking an experienced Senior Recruitment Consultant to build and lead a dedicated Diagnostics & IVD vertical.
Following a record-breaking second year, the business is entering a significant growth phase and is looking to appoint a recruiter capable of carving out a genuine specialist niche within one of healthcares fastest-evolving markets.
This is not a desk to inherit. It is an opportunity to create true market ownership with the backing of an established brand and proven delivery platform.
Why Consider This Move?
- Unlimited holiday built on trust and accountability
- Fully remote working model
- Annual overseas sales meetings
- Company-funded away days and regular meetups
- High-autonomy culture with no heavy KPI environment
- Direct access to leadership and fast decision-making
The firm operates an outcomes-focused model built for experienced recruiters who prefer ownership over activity metrics.
Joining during a scale phase typically creates far greater upside than entering a mature agency structure.
The Role
The successful hire will take full ownership of the Diagnostics & IVD market, partnering with manufacturers, laboratory technology providers, and healthcare innovators across international territories.
Key responsibilities:
- Winning and developing new client relationships within Diagnostics and IVD
- Delivering senior commercial, technical, and leadership talent
- Building deep candidate networks across laboratory and diagnostic technologies
- Acting as a strategic advisor to hiring leaders
- Negotiating complex offers and closing high-value assignments
- Establishing a recognised specialist presence within the sector
Build a True Specialist Desk
Diagnostics and IVD continue to attract sustained global investment, driven by advances in molecular diagnostics, point-of-care testing, automation, and data-driven healthcare.
The platform is already in place – brand credibility, infrastructure, and market access.
The expectation is that the successful consultant will leverage this foundation to build a desk with long-term enterprise value.
What They Are Looking For
- Proven billing success within agency recruitment
- Experience recruiting into Diagnostics, IVD, or laboratory technology strongly preferred
- Commercial maturity and self-direction
- Comfortable operating with high autonomy
- Relationship-led and consultative in approach
- This environment typically suits recruiters who want the freedom to build something meaningful rather than operate inside rigid structures.
Timing Matters
Opportunities to join specialist firms during a genuine growth phase are relatively rare.
For experienced recruiters motivated by earning potential, autonomy, and the ability to shape their own market, this represents a particularly compelling move.
Salary & Benefits
- Negotiable base salary aligned to experience and billing history
- Uncapped commission structure paying up to 70% – designed to properly reward high performers
- Unlimited holiday, built on trust and professional accountability
- Fully remote working with complete location flexibility
- Company away days to connect and celebrate success
- Annual international sales trip to Dubai
- High-autonomy environment with no heavy KPI culture
