Location: London (Old Street & Moorgate nearby)
Working arrangements: Agile working options available
Remuneration: Up to £40k basic salary + £5,000 car allowance + uncapped commission
Build a market. Grow a division. Progress your career.
You know your market. You’ve built client relationships, delivered results and understand what it takes to succeed in recruitment. But perhaps you’re ready for more than running a desk. Maybe you want greater ownership, the opportunity to shape a market and a clear route to progressing your career.
At Ganymede, we’re looking to develop our presence within Facilities Management, an area that aligns naturally with our established expertise across engineering, transport and infrastructure.
We’re looking for an experienced 360 recruiter who understands the FM market and wants to play a key role in its growth. This is an opportunity to build on the relationships and experience you already have, take ownership of a developing area of the business and work towards growing a division, with the backing of an established recruitment group.
The opportunity is to build something of your own, without having to build everything around it from scratch.
The Role and About You
You’ll take ownership of developing our Facilities Management offering, building client relationships, identifying new opportunities and driving sustainable commercial growth.
This is a 360 recruitment role, but the opportunity extends beyond running a desk. We want someone who knows their market, understands where the opportunities lie and has the ambition to turn that knowledge into a successful and growing division.
Our consultants operate across dual desks, supported by separate commission schemes, providing the opportunity to develop complementary revenue streams and deliver a broader range of recruitment solutions to clients.
Whether the requirement is to mobilise a large-scale contract at pace, support high-volume hiring or source a niche, hard-to-find specialist, we have the experience and capability to deliver. You’ll have the autonomy to shape your approach, develop your market and build lasting client relationships, supported by a leadership team that understands the sector and the commercial realities of recruitment.
You’ll likely be someone who enjoys taking ownership, thinks commercially and wants to see the impact of the work they do. You don’t need to have built an entire division before, but you should be confident in your market knowledge, comfortable developing business and motivated by the opportunity to grow something with long-term potential.
The Platform to Build Something Bigger
The freedom to develop your market, with the infrastructure to support it.
Growing a successful recruitment division takes more than winning business. It requires the right people, processes, technology and operational support. At Ganymede, those foundations are already in place.
- Central support that lets you focus on growth. Our dedicated marketing, finance, systems, IT and compliance functions, alongside a team administrator, provide the support you need to focus on developing clients, candidates and commercial opportunities.
- Technology that supports scale. Our recruitment technology supports bulk hiring, making it particularly valuable in high-volume FM environments where large contracts can require the rapid mobilisation of significant numbers of people.
- Flexible recruitment solutions. Our dual-desk model and separate commission schemes give consultants the opportunity to develop complementary areas of business and provide clients with solutions tailored to their requirements.
- Proven delivery capability. We have a track record of mobilising large contracts for major clients, as well as delivering specialist, hard-to-find candidates into organisations ranging from smaller businesses to some of the largest in their sectors.
This gives you a platform to develop our FM presence with the backing of an established operation. You can concentrate on building relationships, winning business and growing the division, knowing you have the infrastructure and delivery expertise to support the opportunities you create.
A Clear Route for Progression
We want this to be more than an opportunity to take on another desk. At Ganymede, progression is structured, giving you a clear framework for developing your career as your performance, experience and responsibilities grow.
As you establish the market, grow revenue and make your mark on the business, there is a defined route for progression. Your ambitions and development matter, and we want to give you the opportunity to build a successful recruitment business while progressing your own career.
For someone ready to take the next step, this is an opportunity to combine commercial ownership with long-term career development, within a business that has the experience and infrastructure to support both.
Why Ganymede?
We’re part of the RTC Group, bringing over 50 years of recruitment experience and an established reputation across energy, transport and infrastructure. Facilities Management is a natural extension of that expertise and an opportunity to develop a complementary area of the business.
But it’s the people and the environment that really set us apart.
In our London office, two consultants feature in the group’s top 10 performers, while our manager has been a top-three performer for five consecutive years.
These results reflect what we believe makes a difference: backing good people, recognising performance and creating an environment where ambition and long-term career development go hand in hand.
There are no egos, no vanity KPIs and no burnout disguised as ambition. We’re commercially driven, but we believe sustainable success comes from building lasting relationships, working collaboratively and giving people the trust and support to perform.
We want people to do well, develop their careers and enjoy what they do along the way.
What You’ll Bring
- 360 agency recruitment experience, with a proven track record in Facilities Management and a strong understanding of your market and its commercial opportunities.
- The confidence to develop client relationships, win new business and maximise existing relationships.
- A commercially minded approach and the ambition to take ownership of a market.
- The ability to identify opportunities across high-volume recruitment, specialist appointments or both.
- The motivation to build a successful and sustainable division.
- A desire to develop your career within a business that offers structured progression and the opportunity to make a tangible impact.
Next Steps
If you enjoy recruitment but feel ready for greater ownership, more influence and a stronger platform to grow from, this could be the right move.
At Ganymede, you can build on the experience and relationships you already have, play a leading role in developing our Facilities Management offering and progress your career within an established business that has the people, technology and delivery capability to support your ambitions.
