The Person:

Each CRS employee is treated as an individual. Because every member of staff has the opportunity to run their own desk, we encourage free thinking and new ideas.

There are many qualities required to become a successful recruitment consultant; energy, intelligence, drive, confidence and, above all, an unwavering desire to succeed. It isn't easy, but then again why would it be when the potential rewards are so high. Of course, we expect you to keep your side of the bargain. This is definitely not a boring nine-to-five job. It could almost be described as a way of life, where you demonstrate total commitment and put in whatever is necessary to achieve your goals.

The Role:

The work is mainly telephone based, so you should have a clear and confident manner and be able to sell the company and yourself above other agencies. You must also be able to build strong, trusting relationships with candidates. Other responsibilities include pre-screening CVs, organising interviews and writing advertising copy for the trade press and online media. Recruitment is a sales role so you must be self-motivated and prepared to give whatever it takes to achieve the best results and rewards. You will have strong persuasion skills and a highly competitive attitude. Previous experience is not necessary as a comprehensive training programme is provided. However, some sales experience would be an advantage.

Training:

As an organisation, we invest in our people to give them the skills and expertise to excel. The training doesn't stop with your first placement - both formal and on-the-job training continue throughout your career.

Behind all this is a highly organised back office function, which ensures that all our business operations run smoothly and seamlessly. We have a state of the art specialist recruitment system, supported by a strong IT team, which makes managing the recruitment process as easy as possible. In short, we will give you all the tools you need to become another CRS success story

Career Path:

At CRS our philosophy demands sustained, organic growth. We have never seen the need to acquire other companies in order to grow, we'd rather give new opportunities to our own people. From your first day you will be working within a team that will encourage, advise and support you. Your Team Leader will have joined as a Consultant and have risen up the ranks due to his / her own success and performance. As well as recruitment, the role of the Team Leader is to get the best out of their team. This includes training, mentoring, setting team targets and making sure that everyone is individually achieving their goals.

All staff members are consulted periodically to map out a clear career path specific to each individual taking into account the employee’s interest and abilities, business requirements and market opportunities.

Rewards:

There are very few industries where, success is so well rewarded. On top of your basic salary (negotiated according to experience), you will enjoy one of the most generous commission schemes in the industry. Commission is uncapped, so you will have full responsibility and control of your earnings. You will personally receive a direct percentage of revenues, which increases in line with the amount of income you generate for the company. In addition we have a monthly prize for the highest biller as well as a variety of other incentive schemes. It is not unusual to earn £50,000+ in your first year, and many consultants go on to earn six figures in their second year.

We are a meritocracy - we actively encourage our people to take on more responsibility; so there are exceptional career opportunities, with promotion based on performance.

For those willing to work hard and put the customer first we offer high rewards and a fun working environment. If you would like to find out more, please email your details or any enquiries to HR@crsplc.com
