OTE 60,000 - 70,000 Edmund & Evans are working with a highly respected construction recruitment group to appoint a Senior Consultant or Managing Consultant into a newly developing brand within their portfolio. This is a genuine growth hire. Not a replacement. The wider group has over 16 years of credibility within construction recruitment, with deep-rooted client relationships across main contracting, subcontracting, consultancy and civil engineering. The leadership team is made up of individuals with direct construction backgrounds, and the business has built its name on market knowledge, professionalism and long-term partnerships rather than volume.

The Opportunity You will step into a position that combines billing responsibility with genuine strategic input. This is effectively a number two hire. Someone capable of producing strong gross margin while supporting the growth and future management of additional consultants as the team expands. You will not be constrained by heavy internal politics or unnecessary structure. You will have autonomy, flexibility and the ability to shape something that you will have a stake in. The expectation is clear. High standards. Strong revenue. Long-term growth. The Role A full 360 position within the construction and built environment market. You will: Leverage and develop your existing network Generate consistent, high-quality gross margin Build and maintain a strong pipeline of work Operate independently without constant supervision Recruit across permanent, temporary or both markets Contribute to hiring, mentoring and shaping future team members This is a revenue-led role, but with leadership exposure from the outset. Who This Is For This opportunity is aimed at experienced construction recruiters who: Have a minimum of three years experience within the built environment sector Have billed 200,000+ annually across the last two to three years Are based within Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire or North West London outskirts Have operated across consultancy, M&E, main contracting or related markets Can demonstrate genuine business development ability beyond PSL reliance Are self-starting, disciplined and commercially driven You must be capable of building and sustaining your own pipeline. This is not a desk inheriting role. What Is on Offer The package reflects both performance and long-term upside. Competitive base salary aligned to billing history Commission structure with no threshold Equity share in the new business Backing, systems and infrastructure of an established 16-year construction recruitment group Clear pathway into senior leadership as the division scales Mobile phone, laptop and performance-led incentives Generous commission potential with earnings designed to significantly exceed base salary This is an opportunity to move from being a consultant within a larger structure to becoming a key figure in building something of your own, without taking the risk of starting alone. For ambitious construction recruiters who want autonomy, equity and long-term progression, this represents a serious career move. Edmund & Evans are handling the search on a confidential basis. High-performing consultants seeking more ownership are encouraged to enquire discreetly. TPBN1_UKTJ
