  • Identify and market map potentially suitable candidates to meet the requirements of our clients
  • Work closely with our consultants to build long and short lists for roles and attend subsequent interviews
  • Research and provide market intel and talent mapping on an ongoing basis
  • Track market activity, identifying potential clients, high growth businesses and organisations undergoing change, finding links and mutual contacts to enable effective introductions
  • Work with the team to develop networks amongst specific talent pools
  • Work with the executive search team to plan, co-ordinate, deliver and attend social and added value client and candidate events
 
The ideal candidate:
  • An intelligent, hard-working individual with personality and character
  • Someone who seeks out new information and learns quickly
  • Excellent verbal communication and written skills
  • High levels of emotional intelligence

This role will be suited to someone who is both detail-oriented and people-focussed.

If this role sounds like the type of opportunity you'd be suited to we would love to hear from you.
