Recruitment Consultant

Contract Scotland is a recruitment consultancy that was established to redefine recruitment and set a new standard, to challenge how the recruitment industry works.

We don’t work to a traditional target and commission model, which gives us the unique ability to provide our customers with a transparent recruitment service that delivers true value and lasting impact to their lives and businesses.

With a strong pipeline of work/many long-term relationships, and to continue delivering the highest quality recruitment within our sector, we need to add to our existing team.

As a recruitment consultant, you’ll ultimately be responsible for finding and placing ‘great fit’ candidates into the right positions, with a wide range of employers.

You’ll manage the end-to-end hiring process, including sourcing and engaging with candidates, assessing CV’s, conducting & organising interviews, negotiating offers, and onboarding/providing aftercare. You’ll also build strong relationships with clients to understand their hiring needs and with candidates to guide them through career opportunities.

What can we give you;

A thorough and detailed training plan (our ‘Recruitment Academy’), delivered by a group with an average of 15 years of experience in construction & engineering recruitment.

A winning formula for recruitment (honed over 35+ years), giving you all the structure and tools to be successful.

Access to a large range of businesses who we’ve supported over many years, with existing relationships and commercial agreements in place, as well as the chance to introduce our approach to new customers.

The best of recruitment technology & AI to support your hard work, allowing you to work as effectively as possible, reach/identify & assess candidates, communicate with your network, and turbocharge your marketing.

Ongoing support & encouragement from the team around you, to make you the best recruiter you can be, and achieve your longer term ambitions.

Your experience/personality;

We don’t need you to have existing experience in recruitment, although we’d be happy to see any that you do have.

Experience in some kind of sales/customer service is always useful, especially if it’s in business-to-business relationships.

What’s most important to us right now, is that you bring;

Energy & enthusiasm – this goes a long way in our team.  We want people who can help keep team morale & momentum high, even during challenging days, who are prepared & ready to get stuck in.
Adaptability/interested in change – this comes in two forms. Often, we pitch in to help each other out during busy spells, so we want people who are prepared to roll with that where needed. Technology & AI is also changing how recruitment works, and how we as individuals approach it. That’s all for the better, but you need to be keen & interested to adopt new technology as it arrives.
Ambition -  we want you to be driven to be the best at what you do.
Persuasive - we’re looking for people who can demonstrate how their likeability/influence will lead to success & strong relationships.
We have a comprehensive benefits package for the team at Contract Scotland, so you can expect;

A company car/car allowance scheme.
Quarterly bonus.
Excellent private health insurance (no excess) covering both physical & mental health.
Hybrid/remote working.
Enhanced annual leave allowance plus additional days for loyalty.
Extra day off on your birthday.
Use of a modern holiday home on the banks of Loch Ness.
