- A successful agency recruitment background ideally in IT

- Strong client development and account management skills
- The ability to independently build and manage a successful recruitment portfolio
- Confidence engaging with senior executives and decision-makers

A Leadership Role Where You Can Still Recruit
Most recruitment leadership roles eventually take you away from the market. This one doesn't.
