Number 1 in the creative market
Why You’ll Love Working Here
Our client is a long-established name in the creative and marketing recruitment space, with over 20 years of history and a genuinely strong reputation across both agencies and in-house brands. They’ve built deep, long-standing relationships with some of the most recognised names across fashion, retail, beauty, wellness and sport — giving you access to real, repeat business rather than starting from scratch.
There’s a strong balance here.
You have the backing of an established brand and significant legacy accounts, but still the energy and flexibility of a business that values entrepreneurial thinking. It’s a high-performing, collaborative environment where people are well rewarded, trusted to run their desks properly, and supported to build long-term careers.
The Opportunity
This is a lead consultant role, taking ownership of the Social & Content vertical. The desk is already billing £8,000–£10,000 per month, with roles being fed in from across the wider business — so there is immediate revenue and real momentum from day one.
It’s a freelance / temp-led desk, placing creative talent into both agencies and brands. There is still an expectation around business development, but this is not a cold start.
For someone looking to step into a more established, better-supported desk — this is a genuinely strong platform.
What Our Client is Looking For
- Proven experience in recruitment (temp/freelance ideal, but not essential)
- Open to recruiters from adjacent markets — full training provided
- Strong control and confidence managing both clients and candidates
- Comfortable working at pace and managing multiple processes
- Commercially driven, with the appetite to maximise a warm desk
About the Business
- An established creative and marketing recruitment agency with a 20+ year track record
- Strong brand and long-standing client relationships
- Collaborative, high-performing environment with genuine progression opportunities
- Hybrid working and a culture that balances performance with enjoyment
We Understand…
We understand that many recruiters aren’t actively job searching. But if you’re in a market where you’re having to build everything from scratch — or not seeing the return you should — it’s worth having a conversation.
