About the Role

Want a career where your hard work actually pays off?

Are you ambitious, competitive and motivated by success? Do you speak fluent German and want to build a career where your earning potential, progression and lifestyle are driven by your performance?

We're looking for ambitious German-speaking individuals to join a rapidly growing specialist recruitment business operating at the forefront of the AI, Data and Technology markets.

This is an opportunity to enter the world of recruitment, develop into a high-performing consultant and work with some of the most exciting businesses and talent across the UK and DACH region.

But let's be clear: recruitment isn't easy.

It's a fast-paced, demanding and highly rewarding industry. You'll make hundreds of calls, face rejection, work towards ambitious targets and put in the hours needed to succeed. In return, you'll have the opportunity to earn serious money, enjoy incredible incentives and progress your career quickly.

What will you be doing?

  • Cold calling: Picking up the phone every day, speaking to potential clients and candidates across the German-speaking market.

  • Business development: Building relationships with companies and identifying new business opportunities.

  • Candidate management: Sourcing, interviewing and representing exceptional German-speaking AI, Data and Technology professionals.

  • Negotiation: Managing the recruitment process from initial conversation through to successful placement.

  • Building your network: Developing your own market and becoming an expert in your specialist sector.

  • Hitting targets: Working towards individual and team KPIs, with performance directly linked to your earning potential.

What are we looking for?

We don't necessarily need previous recruitment experience. We want personality, ambition and the right attitude.

You'll ideally have:

  • Fluent German and strong English communication skills.

  • A competitive nature and a genuine desire to succeed.

  • Confidence speaking to new people and picking up the phone.

  • Resilience and the ability to handle rejection.

  • A strong work ethic and willingness to go above and beyond.

  • A positive attitude and a desire to earn money based on your performance.

  • A degree is welcome but not essential.

Sales, hospitality, retail, telesales and customer-facing experience would all be beneficial.

What's in it for you?

We believe in rewarding people who put in the work. The environment is demanding, but the rewards can be exceptional.

Financial rewards

  • Competitive basic salary.

  • Uncapped commission structure.

  • Individual and team performance bonuses.

  • Regular sales competitions and cash incentives.

  • Clear and achievable career progression.

Lifestyle and incentives

  • International incentive trips and holiday rewards.

  • Lunch clubs at fantastic restaurants for top performers.

  • Regular team socials and celebrations.

  • Performance-based rewards and competitions.

  • The opportunity to win incredible prizes, including Apple technology.

  • A high-energy London office environment surrounded by ambitious, like-minded people.

Training and development

  • Full recruitment training from day one.

  • Ongoing sales and negotiation coaching.

  • Learn how to build and manage your own recruitment desk.

  • Exposure to the booming AI, Data and Technology sectors.

  • A clear pathway from Trainee Consultant to Senior Consultant and beyond.

The Reality of Recruitment

We won't pretend this is an easy job.

There will be challenging days, unanswered calls, difficult conversations and targets that push you outside your comfort zone. The hours can be long, particularly when you're building your desk and chasing opportunities.

However, if you're prepared to work hard, stay consistent and develop your sales skills, recruitment can offer an incredibly rewarding career.

The people who succeed here aren't necessarily the ones with the most experience. They're the ones who pick up the phone, embrace rejection, stay hungry and refuse to give up.

Ready to get started?

If you're German-speaking, commercially minded and looking for an opportunity where your ambition can genuinely translate into financial and career success, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and take the first step towards a career in recruitment.
