Recruitment Consultant (Microsoft Talent)
Competitive + uncapped commission
Portsmouth (Port Solent) based with flexibility for some home working
Company & role
Most recruitment roles sound the same on paper. Warm desk. Big earnings. Progression.
The reality is usually a lot less exciting. This is a little different.
Cloud People is a specialist recruitment business focused on the Microsoft ecosystem, partnering with Microsoft consultancies across Cloud, Data, AI and Security. We are a small team, growing quickly, with big ambitions around what we want to build and how we show up in the market.
That means two things.
You will not be a number. You will have real visibility, real input and a genuine opportunity to shape your own market.
But it also means you need to be comfortable in that environment. Things move quickly. There is accountability. You are expected to take ownership rather than wait to be told what to do.
From day one, you will have a soft landing. We have existing client relationships, live roles and a strong reputation in the Microsoft space, so you can get moving quickly.
Alongside that, you will be building your own niche. Speaking to candidates, taking talent to market, opening new doors and growing something that is genuinely yours.
You will also be supported to develop properly. That includes learning the Microsoft ecosystem, gaining certifications and building a level of market knowledge that sets you apart.
Why This Role Stands Out
You get the best of both worlds. A platform to start from, and the freedom to build on top of it.
There is no threshold on commission, so you earn from your first deal. The more you bill, the more you keep. Simple.
Progression is based on performance and ambition. If you want to grow, you will not be waiting around for it.
You will be part of a lean, focused team where collaboration matters. No internal politics, no fighting over accounts, just a shared goal of building something valuable.
