Technical Recruitment Consultant — Sourcing & Delivery Support

Location: Remote (Anywhere in India)

Working hours: 8:30 AM – 6:00 PM UK time (Monday to Friday)

Reports to: Managing Director

Type: Full-time

Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience

About the Role

We are a specialist sales recruitment business operating across Construction, industrial, manufacturing, and technical sectors. We are looking for an experienced technical recruitment consultant to work directly alongside our Managing Director in a research, organisation, and delivery-focused capacity.

This is not a sales role. There is no cold calling, no business development targets, and no phone-based prospecting. The role exists to multiply the effectiveness of senior leadership by owning the preparatory, organisational, and follow-up work that sits behind successful recruitment delivery.

Key Responsibilities

Candidate research and sourcing

• Build targeted LinkedIn shortlists of candidates matched to live and planned assignments, structured for InMail outreach campaigns.
• Research talent pools within technical, engineering, and scientific disciplines, mapping relevant companies and candidate populations.
• Maintain accurate, well-organised longlists and shortlists ready for outreach.

Response and pipeline management

• Monitor and manage responses to InMail and email outreach, ensuring no reply goes unanswered or unactioned.
• Track incoming candidate and client responses across our systems, keeping records current and complete.
• Qualify and prioritise responses so the Managing Director's time is spent only on the conversations that matter most.

Daily planning and follow-up support

• Prepare a clear daily action plan for the Managing Director: who needs to be called, when, and why.
• Track outstanding actions, chase follow-ups, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks across concurrent assignments and commercial matters.
• Provide inbox awareness — flagging what is urgent, what needs a decision, and what can wait.

What This Role Is Not

• No cold calling or telephone-based candidate/client acquisition.
• No sales or billing targets.
• Not an administrative or data-entry position — this role requires genuine recruitment judgement and technical understanding.

Required Skills & Experience

• Proven experience as a recruitment consultant or resourcer within technical, engineering, scientific, or manufacturing sectors.
• A science or engineering background (degree-level education or equivalent hands-on industry experience) enabling credible assessment of technical candidates.
• Strong working knowledge of LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search techniques.
• Highly organised, with the ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams, deadlines, and follow-ups without prompting.
• Excellent written English for candidate communication and outreach management.
• Discretion and reliability — this role involves close visibility of senior-level commercial activity.

What We Offer

• The opportunity to work directly with the Managing Director of a growing specialist recruitment group.
• A role focused entirely on the parts of recruitment you are best at — research, organisation, and delivery — without sales pressure.
• Remote working aligned to UK business hours.
