Travel Recruitment Account Manager

Recruitment Account Manager – Travel Industry – Homeworking

Are you a recruiter who loves winning business as much as filling jobs?

Are you ambitious, commercially minded and not afraid to pick up the phone, open doors and create opportunities?

If so, we’d love to hear from you….

C&M Travel Recruitment has been at the heart of travel recruitment for over 28 years. We’re one of the most established specialist recruitment consultancies in the sector, with an excellent reputation, long-standing client relationships and a fantastic, experienced team.

We recruit across Sales, Marketing, Commercial, Finance, Technology and Executive roles for some of the biggest names in travel, alongside exciting independent and specialist businesses. Our clients span Tour Operators, Travel Agents, TMCs, Airlines, Cruise and the wider travel ecosystem.

We have an established client base and numerous preferred supplier agreements — but we’re ambitious and we want to keep growing.

That’s where you come in.

The Role

This is a true 360-degree recruitment role within our executive recruitment team. You’ll own the recruitment process from beginning to end, including:

Developing and winning new business

Prospecting and building relationships with new clients

Growing and managing existing client accounts

Negotiating commercial terms

Attending client meetings and visits

Taking detailed vacancy briefs

Creating engaging job adverts

Proactively sourcing and headhunting candidates

Interviewing and managing candidates throughout the process

Arranging interviews, negotiating offers and closing placements

You'll inherit relationships with established C&M clients, many of whom we've worked with for years, but this isn't an account-management-only role.

We want someone who is hungry to win.

Someone who enjoys spotting an opportunity and going after it. Someone comfortable picking up the phone and starting a conversation. Someone who gets a buzz from bringing in a new client, winning a vacancy and turning that opportunity into revenue.

Who Are We Looking For?

Ideally, you'll have at least two years' recruitment experience, from any sector or discipline.

We would also consider someone with a strong sales background within corporate or leisure travel who understands the industry and is ready for an exciting new challenge.

Most importantly, you'll be:

Commercial, ambitious and self-motivated

Confident developing and winning new business

Comfortable prospecting and picking up the phone

A natural relationship builder

A strong communicator and negotiator

Target-driven and motivated by success

Passionate about delivering outstanding candidate and client service

A team player who is prepared to go the extra mile

Why Join C&M?

You get the best of both worlds.

The reputation, relationships and experience of a business established for over 28 years — with the energy, ambition and opportunity to make your own mark.

We have a fantastic team and a supportive, collaborative culture. We want people to succeed, we celebrate success together and we give experienced recruiters the autonomy to get on with what they do best.
