Are you a natural competitor? Relentlessly driven by success? Ready to earn serious money and fast-track your career in a high-performance sales environment?

 

At g2 Recruitment, we don’t do average. We develop elite recruiters and salespeople who go on to become industry leaders, top billers, and company directors — and we’re looking for the next wave of ambitious talent to join our London office, one of our highest-performing teams globally.

We're part of the G2V Group — an award-winning recruitment powerhouse with 400+ consultants across 23 offices in the UK, Europe, and the US.

If you're ready to bet on yourself, outwork the competition, and earn what you’re really worth — this is your moment.

 

What You’ll Do (The Role):

As a 360 Recruitment Consultant, you'll manage the full sales cycle — from winning new clients to placing top-tier talent across high-demand sectors like Tech, Engineering, and Life Sciences in the UK and Europe.

You’ll be:

  • Building your own client portfolio through proactive outreach, networking, and pitching
  • Sourcing high-level candidates and managing the full recruitment process
  • Becoming a market expert in your chosen niche
  • Owning your digital presence – LinkedIn, personal brand, marketing
  • Working directly with decision-makers in fast-moving industries
  • Closing deals, hitting targets, and earning commission from day one

 

What’s In It For You:

We don’t cap earnings — we reward output. Our environment is designed for high performers to excel and accelerate.

  • Base salary: £24,000
  • Uncapped commission from day one
  • Year 1 OTE: £30k–£45k+
  • Year 2: £50k–£70k+
  • Year 3+: £100k+
  • Direct mentorship from top billers and sales leaders — no gatekeeping
  • World-class training: 45 hours of expert Learning & Development in your first 3 months
  • Monthly Michelin-star lunch clubs (Sexy Fish, Amazonico, Quilon, The Pem & more)
  • All-expenses-paid holidays – Ibiza, Marbella, Dubai, Barcelona
  • Weekly wellness lunches, gym discounts & regular socials
  • Career progression in 12-18 months – Executive Consultant & beyond

 

We’re Looking for People Who Are:

  • Ultra-competitive, goal-oriented, and thrive in target-driven environments
  • Financially motivated — you want more than just a paycheck
  • Confident, persuasive communicators — whether it’s on the phone or in person
  • Sociable, resilient, and unafraid of rejection
  • Recent grads or early-career professionals ready to go all-in on their career
  • Hungry to build something that’s 100% yours — your desk, your market, your success

 

No prior recruitment experience is needed. We’ve hired ex-athletes, salespeople, hospitality staff, recent graduates — what they all have in common is an Elite work ethic and a desire to win.
