Entry Level Recruitment Consultant – High Energy Career for Ambitious Salespeople

Recruitment suits salespeople who want to make more money and enjoy building long-lasting relationships. If you get a kick out of the chase and are looking for a career where your effort directly impacts your earnings.

We’re working with a quick-growing specialist recruitment agency that partners with some of Australia’s biggest industrial and engineering businesses. They’re looking for driven, energetic people from sales, customer service, trades, call centres and client-facing backgrounds who want more out of their career.

No recruitment experience? No problem. Personality, resilience and ambition matter more.

What does the job actually look like?

Think of it as a mix of sales, relationship management, problem-solving and people skills.

You’ll be:

- Building relationships with companies and helping them hire great people

- Developing new business and growing your own client base
