Freedom Recruitment Capital
Location - office
Salary up to £45K plus comms
Help experienced recruiters take the leap into business ownershipEvery year, brilliant recruiters reach the same crossroads: they’re brilliant at the job, tired of building someone else’s business, and wondering if they’re brave enough to build their own. Freedom Recruitment Capital exists for that moment. We back experienced recruiters who want to step out on their own, giving them the platform, capital and support to trade freedom for ownership, better income, better lifestyle, a business that’s actually theirs.
We’re looking for a Sales Manager to go and find those people.
This isn’t a desk-bound sales role. It’s about getting in front of experienced, successful recruiters, understanding what’s really holding them back, and having the honest, human conversations that help them see what’s possible. You’ll be the person who spots the potential before they do, who builds a relationship built on genuine trust rather than a pitch, and who gives people the confidence to be brave about their own future.
What you’ll be doing*Proactively identifying and reaching out to experienced recruiters who are ready, or nearly ready to set up on their own, through all channels; social media, phone, email and face-to-face
*Creating and managing multi-platform social media campaigns (LinkedIn, Instagram, and beyond) that generate a genuine, warm pipeline of leads
*Writing sharp, creative content; posts, articles, video scripts that speaks directly to recruiters weighing up going out on their own
*Getting out from behind the screen for face-to-face networking, events and meetings where the real relationships are built
*Building authentic, trust-led relationships rather than running a transactional sales process
*Understanding each person’s motivations, fears and ambitions, and tailoring the conversation accordingly
*Confidently and credibly articulating the commercial and lifestyle case for partnering with Freedom Recruitment Capital
*Guiding prospects through their decision with patience, honesty and a genuine belief in their potential
*Managing a pipeline of relationships from first conversation through to signed partnership, without ever losing the personal touch
*Representing the Freedom Recruitment Capital brand as a trusted, credible voice in the recruitment community
What we’re looking for*A proven track record in a sales, business development or relationship-led role - recruitment sector experience is a strong advantage
*Strong creative content writing skills, with the ability to produce copy that’s engaging, credible and on-brand
*Hands-on experience building and managing social media campaigns across multiple platforms, with a clear focus on turning content into leads
*Equally comfortable generating leads online and in person from a well-crafted LinkedIn campaign to a room full of recruiters at an industry event
*Outstanding emotional intelligence: the ability to read people, build rapport quickly and know exactly when to push and when to listen
*Sharp commercial instincts and the ability to talk credibly about business ownership, P&Ls and growth
*Real drive and resilience, self-motivated, target-driven and comfortable owning their own pipeline with minimal supervision
*Strong self-management: organised, disciplined and able to prioritise a busy, relationship-driven workload independently
*A confident, articulate communicator who can land a message clearly and persuasively, one-to-one or in front of a room
*Excellent presentation skills, comfortable pitching the Freedom Recruitment Capital story to individuals and groups alike
*Natural charisma and the gravitas to be taken seriously by experienced, successful people making a life-changing decision
*A genuine belief in helping people be braver about their careers and their lives
Why join us*Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission / OTE
*The chance to change people’s lives and careers, not just hit a number
*A close-knit, ambitious team building something genuinely different in the recruitment space
