Job Description
Sourcing Specialist to Recruitment Consultant

Tired of negotiating contracts where everyone wins except your bank account?

What if you could take your skill set- sourcing, negotiation, relationship building- and use it to change people's careers while directly controlling your own earning potential?

At Archer Recruitment, we are looking for a Sourcing Associate from the procurement world to transition into a career in Agency Recruitment.

How Your Skills Translate:
  • Strategic Sourcing: Instead of sourcing components, raw materials, or software, you'll be sourcing top-tier talent. Your ability to boolean search, map markets, and find the "needle in a haystack" is exactly what we need.
  • Supplier Relationship Management (SRM): Candidates and hiring managers are your new suppliers and stakeholders. Your ability to build trust and manage expectations will make you an elite recruiter.
  • Negotiation & Closing: You already know how to handle pushback, negotiate commercial terms, and close deals. In recruitment, you'll use those skills to negotiate offers and salaries.
What's In It For You?
  • The Commission Structure: Unlike corporate procurement, where your bonus is capped by a rigid corporate tier, agency recruitment offers uncapped earnings. If you work hard and close deals, you get paid directly on the revenue you generate.
  • Fast-Track Career Progression: Clear, merit-driven promotion path. No waiting around for your manager to retire to get a promotion.
  • Comprehensive Training: We don't expect you to know recruitment on day one. We will teach you our systems, tech stack, and methodology. You just bring the procurement mindset.
You'll Be Doing:
  • Managing the end-to-end recruitment delivery process from sourcing to placement.
  • Acting as a consultative partner to clients, understanding their needs, and delivering talent.
  • Utilising LinkedIn Recruiter, databases, and networking to build a pipeline of talent.
What We Are Looking For:
  • 2 years of experience as a Sourcing Associate, Procurement Specialist, Buyer, or similar supply chain role.
  • A relentless curiosity and a knack for finding information/people that others miss.
  • Resilience and Drive: Recruitment has highs and lows; we need someone with resilience and a competitive spirit.
