Why Join Spencer Ogden?

At Spencer Ogden, we’re global leaders in Sustainability, Infrastructure & Energy Recruitment – and we need multilingual professionals to help us connect with candidates and clients across Europe.

Alternative Sales Based Career Path – An alternative route for you to utilise your language skills as opposed to the traditional paths of Teaching and Translation.
Global Reach – Work with clients and candidates across Germany, France, Spain, Scandinavia, and beyond.
Award-Winning Culture – Recognised for Best & Brightest in Wellness (2021 & 2022), Top Workplaces (2022), and the Sustainability Award (2022).
Progression-Focused – 70% of our leadership team started as Trainees, proving career growth is real here.

The Role: International Recruitment Sales

This is a sales-focused career path rather than an HR/Talent Acquisition role, where you’ll use your language skills to:

Build relationships with clients and candidates in German/French/Spanish/Swedish/Danish/Finnish-speaking markets.
Source top talent and negotiate deals across Europe.
Hit sales targets in a fast-paced, commission-rich environment.

Key Responsibilities:

Business Development – Prospect and close deals with international clients.
Candidate Sourcing – Headhunt freelancers, contractors and permanent professionals in your language market.
Networking – Attend industry events and engage with stakeholders in their native language.
Sales & Negotiation – Use your fluency to build trust and close placements.

Who We Want:

Fluent speakers of German, French, Spanish, Swedish, Danish, or Finnish (business-level proficiency).
Sales or recruitment experience preferred – but graduates with language skills are welcome.
Target-driven – Motivated by uncapped earnings and career growth.
International mindset – Excited to work with global clients.

What We Offer:

Uncapped commission – Top performers can earn £100K+ by Year 2-3.
Award-winning training – No recruitment experience? No problem—we’ll train you.
Luxury incentives – Trips to Morocco, Vegas, South Africa.
Flexible working – Early Friday finish at 3pm and work-from-home policy (1 day a week, based on performance).
Regular competitions, socials, and team events
Wellbeing support – 5 mental health/sickness days, private healthcare, birthday off.
