Job Overview

Are you a tenacious appointment setter with experience in the recruitment industry? We’re hiring a high-performing Appointment Setter to join a growing UK-based startup recruitment agency. You’ll be responsible for driving qualified meetings that lead to real business outcomes – your role is the engine of growth. Working remotely from South Africa and aligned to UK hours, you’ll use a multi-channel outreach strategy to deliver approximately 10 booked meetings per week, resulting in 1+ attended client meeting per day.

You’ll thrive in this role if you’re results-driven, self-motivated, and able to own the full meeting funnel – from cold call to confirmed calendar invite to rebooking no-shows. If you have strong UK-market communication skills and a background in high-volume recruitment prospecting, we’d love to hear from you.

• Clean and segment purchased data (e.g., from Apollo) to build accurate outreach lists
• Log all activities, communications, and updates in the CRM system
• Track performance metrics: meetings booked, attended, no-shows, and rebooking rates
• Collaborate with the founder to continuously refine outreach messaging and targeting
• Provide daily activity reports and weekly KPI updates on outreach performance

Qualifications and Experience

• Minimum 3 years of experience in appointment setting for recruitment agencies (ideally temp staffing)
• Proven track record of high-volume cold calling and successful meeting setting
• Strong familiarity with UK business culture and professional phone manner
• Excellent spoken and written English
• Ability to work full-time, aligned to UK business hours

• Detail-oriented with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
