About PageGroup

PageGroup has over 40 year’s expertise in professional services recruitment. Over this period we’ve grown organically to establish ourselves as one of the world’s best known and most respected consultancy companies, employing more than 5,000 people in over 156 offices and 34 countries worldwide. In addition, we have been voted one of the Sunday Times 100 best companies to work for eight times.

What do we do?
Recruitment is about understanding the value of people. We take care of our own as diligently as we do the businesses and candidates that depend on us. Our consultants are trained and developed to the highest standards and rewarded within a results-driven, ‘work hard, play hard’ culture. Quarterly bonuses are based on team rather than individual performance, encouraging everyone to pull together.

What’s in it for you?
Working hard pays off at PageGroup. Become one of our top billing ‘High Flyers’ and you could be jetting off to worldwide locations such as Rio, Miami, Cape Town or California for an all expenses paid, luxury holiday.

However, the rewards in our business are more than just financial. This is a global company where 95% of management were internal appointments – prove yourself and there’s no reason why you couldn’t be running your own team in New York, Sydney or Dubai.

Our success is dependent on our ability to attract, train, develop and promote quality employees. We will support you throughout your career, fostering an environment of continual learning. This includes our industry leading courses, workshops and on the job coaching.

Our values
We have five values at PageGroup that we believe contribute to our success: taking pride, being passionate, never giving up, working as a team and making it fun. We didn’t get to be the biggest name in recruitment without knowing what people want from a job. These attributes are not only the essence of our brand, but are rooted in each and every employee of PageGroup.

What we’re looking for
We’re looking for commercially minded and goal-oriented individuals – you don’t have to have specific sales experience to be successful in this role, but your ability to persuade and influence is key to being successful in the world of recruitment.

If you possess excellent communication skills, drive, determination and resilience to succeed in an extremely challenging, fast moving and results-based environment then we can train and develop the rest.
