Capex Recruitment in Manufacturing - Build Your Desk in a Growing Market

Are you an experienced 360 Recruitment Consultant looking for greater earning potential, more autonomy, and the opportunity to develop a specialist desk within engineering and manufacturing?

We’re expanding our presence within Capex-led manufacturing projects - a sector driven by ongoing industrial investment across production upgrades, plant expansion and infrastructure development.

This is a market with strong long-term demand for specialist talent, where project cycles and capital investment continue to generate consistent recruitment activity.

We’re looking for a recruiter who wants to take ownership of this space and build a long-term desk within a developing area of the business.

Why This Opportunity?

You’ll be joining a growing team within Capex-led manufacturing projects, led by a highly experienced Manager with a strong track record of building successful recruitment teams across technical and engineering markets.

Unlike fully established desks, this opportunity sits in a developing part of the business. That means you won’t be inheriting a saturated market; you’ll be helping shape and grow the desk as the sector evolves.

From day one, you’ll be building your own client relationships while operating within an environment that already understands how to win in engineering recruitment.

You’ll have the structure, support and leadership in place - but the opportunity to define your own market presence.

A Market Built on Capital Investment

Capex manufacturing projects sit at the centre of long-term industrial investment strategies, covering plant upgrades, production expansion and large-scale engineering programmes.

This creates a recruitment environment driven by:

• Long-term project lifecycles
• High-value technical hiring
• Repeat client demand
• Ongoing capital investment

For recruiters, this means fewer transactional placements and more sustained, relationship-led business with major manufacturing organisations.

Leadership & Environment

You’ll report directly into a Manager with extensive experience in engineering and technical recruitment, known for building high-performing teams and developing consultants into strong billers.

This is a performance-led environment with clear expectations and high standards, balanced by strong day-to-day support and guidance.

The focus is on enabling consultants to operate independently while giving them the commercial backing to succeed.

Platform & Support

As part of an established engineering recruitment business, you’ll have access to full central support functions including Finance, Compliance, Marketing, HR, Internal Recruitment, Health & Safety, Fleet and IT.

You’ll also benefit from investment in sourcing tools, CRM systems and recruitment technology designed to support delivery in specialist markets.

This infrastructure allows you to focus on client development, candidate delivery and building a sustainable desk.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for an experienced 360 Recruitment Consultant with a background in engineering, technical or specialist markets.

You’ll be commercially driven, confident developing new business and comfortable working in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment.

Manufacturing or industrial recruitment experience is beneficial but not essential , the key requirement is the ability to build relationships and grow a desk within a specialist market.
