Associate Director

Associate Director
London (Hybrid)
Highly Competitive Salary, Commission, Bonus & Share Options

Leadership. Ownership. Long-term upside.

This opportunity is for an established recruitment leader who still enjoys billing and wants a bigger role in what they’re building.
Someone who leads from the front, sets standards through their own output, and wants the autonomy to grow a function with real influence.

As Associate Director, you’ll:

• Lead and grow a high-performing desk or division
• Remain actively involved in billing and key client relationships
• Build, hire, and develop a team around you
• Set direction, standards, and culture within your area
• Play a meaningful role in the wider growth and strategy of the business

This is a hands-on leadership role.

You’ll bill, win business, and stay close to the market, while building scale through others.

This role will suit someone who:

• Is already operating in a leadership role within recruitment
• Has a strong, consistent billing track record
• Leads by example and takes ownership of performance
• Enjoys developing people alongside running their own desk
• Thinks commercially and long-term

You’re already doing both sides of the role.
This gives you the platform, autonomy, and upside to do it properly.

• Competitive Associate Director–level base salary
• Strong, uncapped bonus on personal and team performance
• Share options / equity aligned to long-term growth
• Autonomy to build and lead a team your way
• Genuine influence on decisions and direction
• Clear progression beyond Associate Director

If you’re a billing leader who wants more ownership, more influence, and long-term upside for what you build, this is worth a conversation.
