About the role
Recruitment Delivery Consultant – Defence & Engineering
Bristol / Remote Working
£28,000 – £35,000 Basic + Uncapped Commission
Defence, Engineering & Technical Recruitment
Immediate Start Available
An exciting opportunity to join a fast-rising Defence recruitment business!
Talent Chief Ltd is partnering with an ambitious, fast-growing recruitment company looking to hire an experienced Recruitment Delivery Consultant to join its expanding Defence division.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves recruitment, enjoys finding great candidates and making placements, but doesn't necessarily want the pressure of business development.
The company is doing things differently. Forget outdated KPIs, unnecessary micromanagement and the relentless pressure to make sales calls. This business is focused on quality recruitment, strong relationships and creating an environment where good recruiters can thrive.
Led by a Director with over 20 years of recruitment experience, the company is growing quickly, with a dedicated Business Development professional already bringing new opportunities into the business.
The Role
You'll be working closely with experienced recruiters to source, engage and place talented professionals across the Defence, Engineering and Technical sectors.
This is a delivery-focused position, allowing you to concentrate on what you do best — finding great people and filling vacancies.
Your responsibilities will include:
Sourcing and headhunting candidates across specialist Defence and Engineering markets
Managing candidate relationships throughout the recruitment process
Screening, interviewing and shortlisting suitable candidates
Working closely with senior recruiters on live vacancies
Building strong talent pools and developing long-term candidate relationships
Supporting the delivery of high-quality recruitment solutions to clients
What They're Looking For
Previous experience in recruitment delivery, resourcing or a 360 recruitment role
Ideally some exposure to Defence, Engineering or Technical recruitment
Strong candidate sourcing and headhunting skills
Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities
Someone organised, proactive and capable of managing multiple vacancies
A genuine passion for recruitment and delivering a quality service
You don't need to be a business development expert. This role is all about delivery, and the business wants someone who enjoys that side of recruitment.
What's On Offer?
£28,000 – £35,000 basic salary, depending on experience
Attractive, uncapped commission structure
Opportunities to work on new business generated by a dedicated BD professional
No requirement to generate your own clients
Flexible remote working
Support from an experienced Director with over 20 years in recruitment
A supportive, ambitious and genuinely enjoyable working environment
Excellent progression opportunities as the business expands
The chance to join a growing company and make a real impact from an early stage
The company currently operates remotely, with plans to open its Bristol office in early 2027.
If you're an experienced recruiter who wants to focus on delivery, earn good money and be part of an exciting growing business, we'd love to hear from you.
The company is looking to appoint someone as soon as possible.
