Strategic Director – Data Recruitment (National)
UK Wide
Base from £80K- £120K + Significant Bonus/ OTE
This is a rare opportunity to immediately become a National Recruitment Director with one of the largest Recruitment consultancies in the world.
Over the past couple of years, the company have been collecting data to see where to invest their funds and which new divisions to grow based on existing client demand and growth sectors and it has become apparent that specialist niche Technology recruitment is leading the way, therefore they are establishing specialist nationwide niches in a variety of burgeoning Tech market sectors.
5 years ago, their Technology division was just 2% of the total revenue for the group, it is now over 30% and the most profitable area. One of the major niches identified is Data Recruitment which equates to 10% of client spend in the UK.
The Data division will be developed nationally and subsequently internationally. The investment in these new divisions is significant, £200m has been pledged to make the new niche divisions a global success and the No1 in the world.
On top of this, the company has also invested 10’s of millions of pounds on new products to assist consultants – including a bespoke database, salesforce and a one-touch system with approachability algorithms.
There will be 3 business areas in each specialist niche:
1. Recruitment
2. Recruit, Train and Deploy
3. Consultancy
At the moment, there are 30 specialist consultants within Data Recruitment in the UK, the day to day management of these consultants will be the responsibility of the Regional Directors. This is a strategic, hands-off position: identifying the growth markets within Data, creating specialist teams - essentially building the structure for the UK Data Recruitment market.
We believe this role would be best suited to a Technology Recruitment Manager/ Director with extensive experience within Data Recruitment who would like to move into a more strategic, thought-leadership position.
This company has UK Headquarters, revenues of over £6B and one of the lowest staff attrition rates in the world at just 6% - people enjoy their roles and have structured career progression - it is a phenomenal opportunity.
