Job Role | The best and worst job in the World! The Recruitment Consultant (in our case an IT Recruitment Consultant)
Well you could call yourself a Talent Acquisition Consultant, Talent Specialist, Talent Scout, Search Executive, a Human Trafficking Consultant... Call a spade a spade, you help match up the best candidates against for the best jobs.
Tenacious, charming, hungry, 'think on your feet' - you can spin on sixpence - these are some of the qualities we are looking for. How much do you back yourself and how much do you want it? Enough we hope!
Salary | £30-45,000 basic salary | Uncapped Comms | Basically you work harder we can pay you more. The better you are at finding people jobs, the more basic salary we can pay you! The commission scheme is pretty good - well one of the best in the industry!
Location | Hybrid Working – Work between your home and our offices in Central Birmingham with parking (outside CAZ zone). Decent location with some great views of the City. We like to see you in the office and not just at the end of Webcam so it would be good to see you at some point during the week!
Training | Every day is a school day. We are partnered with some of the industries most recognised trainers to make sure you don't fall too behind the rest of the market.
Key traits needed | Enthusiastic; don't take yourself too seriously; move on from rejection; commercial; think outside the box; spin a number of plates at one time; quirky but most of all you like to have fun; persistent when you hit the résistance.
What we would like to see | A track record where you have been involved in some form of b2b sales. Worked in IT Sales? That would work. Worked in Recruitment even better. Worked in a specialist area such as Finance, IT, Pharma or anything else? We should be talking. Know the term STEM, hit us up!
Got this far of the advert then at least get to the end of the advert....
Recruitment - Champagne and Razorblades! Some days it can be like you have won the lottery - other days you will question yourself to why you are working in this industry! But as Winston Churchill once described success "The ability to move from one failure to the next with the same amount of enthusiasm".
Each day is a different day here at CTA. We do not carry the corporate BS. Many of our Management team have worked for some of the biggest recruitment firms in the World, yet they are having more success working for ourselves here at Chapman Tate Associates.
Founded in 2014, Chapman Tate Associates are a boutique IT Recruitment company that specialises in placing Interim and Permanent candidates across the Infrastructure, DevOps/Cloud, Data Intelligence and Science, IT Sales, Project/Programme Management and Engineering disciplines.
We work with clients ranging from FTSE 250 listed outfits, household names and Start-Ups sitting across the UK, United States, EMEA and ASIA-APAC Regions, giving you the opportunity to expand your client base and be supported by the senior management team.
CTA have grown year on year since our inception and we are looking for a Principal IT Recruitment Consultant (or someone that would like to get in that ground up for their recruitment career) that can help and grow a number of new and existing accounts. The successful individual will help mentor junior members of staff (now or in the future) and we would like someone to grow and develop into one of our future leaders.
We are happy to have someone based working from home but would ideally need some visibility in our offices in Central Birmingham for the majority of the week but we are flexible and will offer remote working where needed. Call us old school, but its good to learn through osmosis and be around those on the same journey as yourself!
Reasons to join Chapman Tate Associates:
- A friendly, collaborative and grown-up environment with a hard-working ethos, with a strong salary structure and market leading commission package.
- Agile enough to adapt as a business when market conditions are not good by creating niche specialisms, new locations to operate in and utilising technology that our competitors would not be aware of.
- Opinions – we encourage thoughts and opinions and rest assured we are an amiable bunch here at CTA; we all support each other for the greater good of each other’s desks and the CTA vision.
- Candidate Delivery team – if you need more hands to the pump, we have the resource team to get the bandwidth you need to deliver on vacancies or projects you win OR need to win.
- Work/life balance - If you need to finish early to pick up the kids for the school run or you go to the gym, we will provide all the tech and flexibility needed to do so.
- We have ‘colourful’ offices to work out of in Central Birmingham with ample parking facilities. If you like to play some nostalgic Street Fighter on our Arcade Machine, crack some goals on our Fuss Ball machine or beat our number 1 player Sol at Table Tennis, feel free to get involved and have fun.
- Tailored incentives for your individual needs - We are not opposed to having that holiday you won to Barbados being spent elsewhere that suits your lifestyle. We have fun as a team but tell us what you need and we can tailor something for you.
- Personal Development Plans that we provide through our industry-recognised training team.
- Access to all specialist Job Boards for the Tech Rec Space, LinkedIn Recruiter license and other exciting Rec Tools to make your life easier (can’t give away all our trade secrets can we).
- Early finishes and WFH Fridays!
- Commission scheme paying to 40%
What we would like to see from someone that joins us:
- Someone that has previously worked a successful niche recruitment desk preferably in the tech space. However, if you have worked in Finance or Pharma, placing niche candidates, we would be interested in talking to you.
- Someone that is collaborative and happy to help those around them achieve and do well. We work as a team and help each other during those sticky situations we always find ourselves in.
- A record of bringing at least £120,000 - £150,000 of billings per year.
- Experience in Account Management and/or Business Development - if you have been in this industry for some time, your experience in creating and sustaining relationships matter.
As a business we believe in autonomy and creating your own success and our Senior Management Team have previously worked for some of the major players in the Recruitment World - collectively we have over 60 years between us to help support your journey, progression and earn more than what you are doing currently.
We are a unique bunch with varied talents and backgrounds who are passionate about what we do and where we want to get to - all with a smile on your face, apply online now and give us a shout on 0121 285 5529 and ask to speak to Vit, Kaz, Tristan or Austin.
