Senior Recruiter

Craft’s London business is set for its biggest year yet – and we’re hiring a Senior Recruiter to help lead our next chapter of growth.

Since 2014, we’ve been recruiting elite talent for the most ambitious design and creative studios in the world.

We partner with design-focused businesses and well-known brands, finding them talented people with expertise in core disciplines of creative, strategy, and client services.

The role
You’ll step into a warm, growing desk – backed by trusted relationships and an enviable client base. Working closely with our London Directors and senior counterparts, you’ll take ownership of briefs across the brand and design landscape – with a focus on strategy, client services, agency growth, and leadership roles.

Our goal is for every recruiter at Craft to build a deep, defined specialism. We’ll work with you to hone, simplify, and grow a market that breeds success and scale.

You won’t be expected to arrive as a finished article. But you will be someone who’s drawn to expertise – who wants to understand a market properly, and who brings energy, consistency, and commercial edge to a team that’s moving fast.

How we think about performance
We work in a market where reputation matters. Relationships last. So when we talk about high performance, we mean:

• Consistent results, delivered with care and judgement
• Quality decision-making under pressure
• Commercial impact that strengthens relationships

This role could be right for you if you…

• Are an experienced 360 recruiter, comfortable owning the full lifecycle
• Enjoy senior-level conversations and thinking beyond the immediate brief
• Care about building genuine, long-term relationships
• Take pride in doing things properly
• Are ambitious, not just for yourself, but for the quality of work you put into the world

At this level, success is measured by how you raise standards, deliver results, and contribute to Craft’s reputation in the market. We see financial success as a result of those high standards.

Life at Craft
You’ll be joining a highly experienced team, with an average of 10.5 years in recruitment. We invest heavily in enablement, brand, systems and support functions – so you can focus on what matters.

Progression here is clear, transparent, and built around impact. From Senior Recruiter-level, there are pathways into market leadership or people leadership, depending on where your strengths and interests lie.

Practicalities

• Based in our London HQ
• Hybrid working – with at least two days a week in the office
