Recruitment Consultant – Energy, Renewables & Construction (QS)

UK-Based | Hybrid / Office Options Available

Competitive Base + Uncapped Commission (10% on all billings)

We’re working with a well-established, independent recruitment agency who have built a strong reputation across the Energy, Renewables and Construction (Quantity Surveying) markets in the UK.

This is a business that has grown organically, values relationships over KPIs for the sake of it, and is now looking to add to their close-knit, high-performing team.

The Opportunity

You’ll join a specialist team working across some of the UK’s most in-demand sectors, partnering with clients ranging from consultancies and contractors through to major infrastructure and energy projects.

This is a genuine 360 role with the autonomy to build your own desk, supported by experienced colleagues who know their markets inside out.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Managing the full recruitment lifecycle across Energy, Renewables and/or Quantity Surveying markets
  • Building and developing client relationships across the UK
  • Sourcing, engaging and placing high-quality candidates
  • Winning new business and growing your own client base
  • Working collaboratively within a tight-knit team environment
  • Becoming a true specialist within your vertical market

What They’re Looking For

  • Experience in perm recruitment (any sector considered)
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • A proactive, self-driven approach to business development
  • Someone who thrives in a smaller, more personal team environment
  • Interest in or exposure to Energy, Renewables or Construction is a bonus, not essential

What’s On Offer

  • 10% commission on everything you bill – simple, transparent, no thresholds
  • Competitive base salary depending on experience
  • A genuinely supportive, close-knit team culture
  • Established client base with live roles to work from day one
  • Clear opportunity to grow with the business as it continues to expand
  • Flexibility around hybrid / office working

If you’re looking to step into a business where you can have real impact, be trusted to do your job, and earn well from day one, this is well worth a conversation.
