Senior/Principal Recruitment Consultant

Job description

Build something serious. Earn properly. Be trusted.

Opta is a specialist executive search firm built deliberately differently.

We’re small, sharp, and scaling with purpose - no corporate noise, no pointless KPIs.

We’re hiring an experienced Senior or Principal 360 Recruiter who wants real ownership, autonomy, and top-tier earning potential.

Why Opta?

• Up to 50% commission
• Unlimited holiday + flexible working
• No micromanagement, no boiler-room culture
• OKRs instead of KPIs
• Real influence in a growing business
• Clear progression - individual contributor, leadership, launching a new division or eventually own your own brand within the Opta Group

You’ll be a strong fit if you:

• Are a proven 360 recruiter
• Enjoy owning your market end-to-end
• Value high standards and grown-up environments
• Want impact, not noise

Who won't enjoy this role?

We’re upfront about this:

• People who need constant hand-holding
• Big egos or status-driven recruiters
• Pure delivery-only recruiters
• Those who want full-remote isolation or rigid 5-day office rules
• Anyone not interested in learning, improving, or raising standards

Opta was created to be a better place to build a long-term recruitment career - without corporate noise, pointless KPIs, or ego-led management.

Apply confidentially or message us to learn more.
