Candidate Manager – Office Support
Regional
Office/Business Support
Up to £45K + Bonus
Pue delivery role
100% remote role
Top tier secretarial recruiter
A rare opportunity to join a successful, founder-led recruitment boutique that is growing quickly while retaining a genuinely human, relationship-led approach.
This is a key delivery role across the Office Support market, working predominantly on permanent appointments alongside some temporary roles. You’ll have the autonomy to own searches, build trusted candidate communities and work as a genuine commercial partner to experienced consultants—without responsibility for developing your own client desk.
Six key highlights
• Up to £45K basic salary + bonus
• 100% remote working from anywhere in the UK
• Predominantly permanent Office Support recruitment, with some temp assignments
• No requirement to build your own BD desk
• Real ownership of live searches from initial headhunt through to placement
• Join an ambitious, collaborative boutique with genuine growth plans
The Opportunity
This is much more than a traditional resourcing role. You’ll become the candidate-market specialist within a quality-led Office Support team, taking responsibility for identifying, engaging and representing exceptional people across permanent and temporary vacancies.
The work will span roles such as Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants, Office Managers, Operations and broader Business Support appointments across a varied client base that includes professional services, financial services, technology, legal firms, growing businesses and international organisations.
You’ll research and headhunt for live briefs, conduct detailed interviews, understand candidates’ longer-term motivations, prepare them thoroughly and remain close to them throughout the process. Your market knowledge and judgement will directly improve shortlist quality and help consultants deliver an outstanding service to their clients.
The business has already built impressive momentum and is now entering its next stage of growth. It combines trust, autonomy and flexibility with high standards, strong commercial ambition and a clear commitment to quality over volume.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
• Fully remote working with monthly team meetings in London
• A varied desk combining relationship-led permanent recruitment with some faster-paced temp delivery
• No cold business development requirement—your focus is talent, delivery and market intelligence
• Freedom to manage your day in a mature, output-led environment
• Close collaboration with experienced consultants who value candidate insight and share responsibility for delivery
• The opportunity to shape talent communities and processes as the business continues to grow
• A boutique culture where good judgement, strong relationships and individual contribution are noticed
Who We’re Looking For
You may be an experienced 360 recruiter who loves the candidate and delivery side of the job but no longer wants the pressure of building a business-development desk. You could equally be an established Candidate Manager, Talent Manager, Delivery Consultant or Resourcer ready for greater ownership and influence.
You’ll ideally bring:
• Recruitment experience within Office Support, Business Support or a closely related professional market
• Strong sourcing, research and headhunting capability
• Confidence interviewing and qualifying candidates in depth
• The judgement to understand motivation, manage expectations and represent candidates credibly
• Excellent organisation and the ability to manage several live searches
• A warm, credible and relationship-led communication style
• The self-discipline to work independently, alongside a naturally collaborative approach
You must be based in the UK and comfortable travelling to London for monthly team meetings.
The Bottom Line
If you’re an experienced recruiter who wants to focus on finding excellent people, building trusted relationships and delivering brilliantly, this is a standout opportunity offering up to £45K plus bonus, 100% remote flexibility and real influence within a successful, ambitious boutique.
