If you have a passion for building relationships and sales, are results oriented, have an entrepreneurial spirit and want work in an environment where the effort you put in directly affects your earnings and trajectory of your career – as well as having a lot of fun along the way – then read on!
We are recruiting for a number of high achieving, coachable and commercially minded individuals with sales or corporate experience to join the Oliver James team here in New York City.
As an Analyst at OJ you’ll benefit from industry leading training and coaching throughout your career, kicking off with our 13-week Accelerator program which is designed to ensure you are equipped with all the skills and tools necessary to become a part of our next generation of top performers.
Since it’s inception, our Accelerator program has set a new standard for recruitment training, with our analysts now getting promoted twice as fast, making their first placements in half the time, and year one revenue more than doubling compared to before it’s launch.
We’ll provide the proven platform for success – but you must be prepared to work hard, have a genuine passion and interest in the recruitment sector, thrive in a target driven environment, and be as relentlessly committed to your learning and development as we are to truly maximise on this opportunity!
What will I be doing?
The role of a recruiter is varied and rewarding, and centres around building and maintaining relationships and with both clients and candidates within one of our niche specialisms, that ultimately leads to revenue generation via successful permanent or contract placements.
At its core, it’s a high output, phone based sales role that requires you to be proactively prospecting both clients and candidates to influence them to use Oliver James as their recruitment partner.
The best recruiters treat their ‘desk’ like their own business, and operate with commerciality, resilience, influence and pace, and use a phone-first mentality to ensure maximise their opportunities to represent the very best candidates and partner on the most desirable roles from their client networks.
You’ll be undertaking tasks such as:
- Headhunting candidates via cold calls, LinkedIn and referral network
- Qualification calls to understand candidates’ background, motivation and career goals
- Selling relevant job opportunities to new and existing candidates
- Prospecting hiring managers to sell OJ’s services, qualify accounts, and generate jobs
- Proactively generating leads, referrals and other commercial information
- Managing interview preparation, feedback and offer processes
- Negotiating fees, contracts and offers
- Operate as a consultative partner for both clients and candidates, providing expert recruitment advice about your market
What’s in it for me?
We pride ourselves on creating the perfect environment for our people to thrive, and believe in giving them the authority and accountability to be responsible for the speed and success of their own career progression and development.
We work hard, are ambitious, but most importantly, we celebrate success and love what we do!
As a consultant at OJ you’ll benefit from:
- Transparent promotion pathway at every level – over 60% of our NYC office received a promotion in 2024
- Generous monthly and quarterly commission payments
- Tailored training and development at every level, with in house trainers and coaches solely dedicated to supporting and accelerating your career
