Posted on Jun 15, 2026 by CV-Library
Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Recruitment
Immediate Start
£25k - £30k Annual
Full-Time
With ambitious growth objectives in place for 2026 and beyond, we’re currently looking to hear from the very best graduate, sales and recruitment talent on the market.

A successful executive recruitment business operating across a range of established and emerging sectors, Verrus have a proven track record for proactively delivering game-changing senior professionals to a predominantly international client base that ranges from rapid growth start-ups to established corporations.

We are presently looking to capitalise on strong business pipeline by adding to several of our specialist practices that operate in the growth verticals of:

* FFI (Flavours, Fragrances & Ingredients)

* Animal Health

* Legal

* Finance

* Mining Machinery

As an Executive Recruiter within one of these teams, you’ll be responsible for meeting billing objectives through the permanent placement of mid-level to C-suite professionals on a global basis but with particular focus across North America, EMEA, and APAC.

This is a 360-recruitment role, so business development will form a significant part of your day to day: Identifying and winning new clients through the proactive marketing of the best talent in your assigned sector specialism.

What We’re Looking For:

* A minimum bachelor’s degree qualification

* Confident, engaging, and articulate interpersonal skills

* First class written and verbal communication in English (additional languages advantageous)

* A bold, dynamic, competitive, and charismatic personality.

* Strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and commercial awareness

* Self-motivation, proactivity, tenacity, and resilience.

* Proficiency in the use of Microsoft365 products, LinkedIn and AI tools

* The ability to multi-task and prioritise across multiple concurrent projects/campaigns.

Prior recruitment, consulting, sales, or business development experience – or prior exposure to one or more of the above-mentioned sectors – would clearly be advantageous, but this is by no means a prerequisite as full and ongoing training will be provided. Your success and advancement will more likely be dictated by your attitude, drive and application.

What’s In It for You?

* A highly competitive basic salary

* Company pension scheme

* A transparent and collaborative team culture underpinned by our core values of trust and integrity.

* A comprehensive onboarding process with ongoing training, development, and support

* Clear opportunities to progress through the business as we continue to grow, our talent pathway offering either senior consultant or leadership routes of advancement.

* A fabulous working environment in one of Leeds City Centre’s landmark office buildings

* A rapid selection and assessment process

* Access to cutting edge tools, resources, technology, AI, and software platforms.

* Team social events, incentive-based trips, executive club overseas weekends away.

* (Qualifying) enrolment within GymFlex health & fitness incentive.

If uncapped earning potential and rapid, meritocratic career progression are your prime drivers, then you might prove to be an important component of our continued growth and success
