The recruitment consultant role is sales based and will require a highly motivated candidate who is looking to benefit from an uncapped bonus structure and the opportunity to grow their career.

Client Details

The original PageGroup brand, Michael Page is comprised of 25 disciplines - each providing a service to a specialist area of the market. We recruit permanent, temporary, contract and interim opportunities, typically from second/third job levels upward. Businesses we work with range from SMEs to global blue-chip organisations.

Michael Page was established in 1976 and has grown rapidly ever since. From humble beginnings we have gone on to become a worldwide recruitment superpower.

Historically from within our Maidstone office we have focused on the finance market and have set the bar for placing the best candidates into the best finance jobs locally. Due to our continued success we have now grown the business further and now recruit roles within Procurement, Supply Chain, Purchasing, Buying and Human Resources locally.

We would now like to hire the right candidate to help us either break new ground in a discipline that we do not currently focus on or instead to continue the great work that our current consultants are doing. That doesn't mean that you need to be a recruiter already, but you need to exhibit the skills that any market leading consultancy organisation would want.
