Want a career where your progression, earnings and success are driven by your own performance?

At Spencer Ogden, we connect high-growth businesses with the specialist talent they need to scale.

Our Finance team partners with Private Equity funds, Investment Banks, Infrastructure investors and investment-backed companies operating across some of the most exciting global markets, including renewable energy, digital infrastructure and sustainable investment.

You will not simply be matching résumés to job descriptions.

You will be building relationships, winning business, advising clients, headhunting high-performing finance professionals and managing deals from the first conversation through to offer and placement.

What Is a 360 Recruitment Role?

This is a full sales and recruitment position, covering both sides of the hiring process.

Business Development

You will identify potential clients, contact senior decision-makers, build relationships and win new recruitment business.

Recruitment and Delivery

You will headhunt finance professionals, manage interview processes, negotiate offers and help candidates make their next career move.

You will own the entire process:

Prospecting → Client meeting → New vacancy → Candidate search → Interview → Offer → Placement

Every successful placement generates revenue for the business, and commission for you.

With average Finance placement fees exceeding $50,000, fewer deals can create significant earning potential.

• Build relationships with Private Equity, Investment Banking and Infrastructure clients

• Generate new business through calls, outreach and client meetings

• Manage the full recruitment and sales cycle

You will have:

• Exposure to high-value, investment-backed clients

• A meritocratic culture where performance is recognized

• Clear progression into senior, management and leadership positions

• Global mobility across Spencer Ogden’s international offices

• Uncapped earning potential with no ceiling on commission

Training and Development

No recruitment experience is required.

You will begin your career through our structured 6-week Training Academy, designed to teach you everything you need to become a successful recruitment consultant.

Your training will cover:

• Business development and cold outreach
