Recruiter

Job description

Job Title: Consultant – Marketing (Senior Hires)

Location: London or Remote

Level: Consultant / Senior Consultant

Salary: £30,000 – £50,000 base + uncapped commission

The Opportunity

Our client, a specialist search firm, is looking to hire a Consultant to lead senior-level Marketing hires.

This role exists because their clients don’t need recruiters — they need advisors. Marketing leadership hires are high-stakes, nuanced, and rarely solved through traditional recruitment methods.

You’ll work on retained and high-value searches, partnering with founders, CMOs, and boards to deliver senior Marketing talent that genuinely moves the business forward.

If you’re currently recruiting marketing roles and want to operate at a more strategic, search-led level, this role is designed for that step up.

The Role

• Deliver end-to-end senior Marketing searches (Head of, Director, VP, CMO)
• Partner with senior stakeholders to define role scope, success criteria, and search strategy
• Lead market mapping and talent identification at leadership level
• Run discreet, high-touch candidate processes
• Build long-term client and candidate relationships at senior level
• Contribute to the growth of the Marketing practice within the firm

This is search work — not volume recruitment.

What Sets This Firm Apart

• Genuine search-led model (retained and retained-style work)
• High trust and autonomy for Consultants
• Focus on quality, depth, and long-term partnerships
• London or remote working
• Clear progression into Senior Consultant / Principal pathways
• Low-ego, intellectually rigorous culture

Consultants are trusted to lead searches properly — not pushed into transactional behaviour.

Who They’re Looking For

• Experience in recruitment or executive search
• Non-negotiable: experience recruiting Marketing roles
• Exposure to senior or leadership-level hires is strongly preferred
• Comfortable working with senior stakeholders and confidential searches
• Consultative, commercially aware, and quality-driven

This is not a junior or delivery-only role.

What’s On Offer

• £30,000 – £50,000 base salary (DOE)
• Uncapped commission
• London or remote flexibility
• Clear progression and practice ownership
• Supportive, experienced leadership
