We're looking for a

  • optimising spend, ensuring ads run effectively and attracting relevant talent.

  • Skimming CVs

using The Sales People's hiring criteria to shortlist the best profiles quickly and accurately.

  • Leading first-round screening calls

to assess motivation, fit and communication quality.

    2–3 years of experience in sales recruitment or sales talent acquisition

, ideally in fast-paced or client-facing environments.

  • Is a
    confident communicator

  • articulate, warm, and capable of making candidates feel comfortable and excited.

  • Has
    closing experience

  • can pitch roles persuasively and isn't afraid to pick up the phone to get candidates booked in.

  • Is
    organised and proactive

, able to manage multiple hiring processes and follow up consistently.

  • Represents
    The Sales People's brand

well - as the first touchpoint for many of our candidates, you'll be the voice and face of our business.

Why Join Us

You'll be part of a small, high-performing team helping startups scale their revenue engines through people. You'll help build teams that change the trajectory of businesses.

Once you've mastered the core responsibilities of this role, there's clear progression ahead - including the opportunity to take ownership of
targeted outbound recruiting

, headhunting top performers, and shaping the talent strategy for The Sales People.

INTERNAL ROLE
