Lead. Build. Innovate. Shape the future of recruitment in SA.
Career Boss is growing fast and we're looking for a Senior Recruitment Consultant who wants to be part of something bigger than "just filling roles."
We work with an exciting and growing portfolio of clients across construction, trades, civil, government and corporate sectors.As we scale, we're building a recruitment model that blends top-tier client service, labour-hire capability, and cutting-edge technology (including AI-enabled sourcing and workflow optimisation).
This is a role for someone who loves recruitment: the strategy, the relationships, the commercial side, and the pace; and who wants to help shape the next stage of our business.
If you want more than a desk…if you want impact, responsibility, and progression…you'll thrive here.
What you'll be doing
You'll operate as a senior consultant to both clients and candidates, owning the end-to-end recruitment cycle and helping us elevate how recruitment is delivered.
Your role will include:
* Managing a portfolio of premium clients across construction, trades, civil and corporate sectors
* Running the full recruitment process: intake, sourcing, screening, placements, negotiations
* Supporting labour-hire operations during peak periods (speed, volume, urgency)
* Building strong relationships with hiring managers and stakeholders
* Improving processes, introducing new ideas, and helping shape best practice
* Using technology and AI tools to streamline sourcing and candidate engagement
* Working with other recruiters in a collaborative environment
* Contributing to business growth, tenders, proposals and client strategy
You won't be micromanaged. You'll be trusted to run your desk with freedom, backed by a team that moves fast and supports each other.
About you
You're a recruiter who genuinely loves the craft, not just the admin of it.
You're confident with clients, commercially minded, highly organised, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
We're looking for someone who brings:
* 3–5+ years recruitment experience (agency or internal)
* Strong capability across blue-collar, white-collar or mixed desks
* Experience supporting enterprise or government clients
* Ability to manage high-volume roles without dropping quality
* A polished communication style and strong stakeholder presence
* A commercial mindset, margins, GP, client value, performance metrics
* Curiosity with tech and a willingness to use AI tools to lift performance
* Stability, accountability, and emotional maturity
* A team-first attitude and genuine care for outcomes
Leadership experience is a bonus, but not required, we're looking for future leaders, not just current ones.
Why Career Boss?
This is an opportunity to help build something, not join something that's already set in stone.
You'll get:
* A high-trust environment with autonomy
* Support from a founder-led team who understands recruitment
* Real progression into leadership or strategic roles
* Exposure to major clients and complex recruitment challenges
* A place where innovation is not optional, it's encouraged
* A modern tech stack and evolving AI tools
* Competitive salary + incentives
* A culture built on momentum, improvement and making recruitment better
If you want a role where your ideas matter, your growth is backed, and your work genuinely changes things…this is it.
