Drive Your Recruitment Career Forward with Workforce

Workforce is one of the West Midlands' leading recruitment firms, supplying over 700 businesses annually with high-quality, reliable staff. Since 2003, we've built a reputation for delivering results fast while providing an exceptional service to clients and candidates alike.

We're now looking for a sales-focused 360 Driving Recruitment Consultant to join our high-performing Coventry branch. This is a fast-paced desk with huge potential, so we're looking for someone with energy, resilience, and a strong commercial drive.

The Role: Driving Recruitment Consultant

As a 360 Consultant in our Driving division, you'll be responsible for winning new business, filling urgent temporary vacancies, and building long-term client relationships. You'll need to thrive under pressure, be responsive to ever-changing client demands, and deliver results at speed.

Key Responsibilities

Sales & Business Development

  • Proactively develop new business through cold calling, lead generation, networking and referrals


  • Identify and engage key decision-makers in logistics and transport businesses


  • Build a strong sales pipeline and consistently meet/exceed monthly targets


  • Promote Workforce's recruitment solutions to new and existing clients


  • Attend client visits to understand recruitment needs and secure new business


  • Upsell additional services, such as advertising packages and extended placements


    Recruitment Delivery

    • Respond quickly and effectively to urgent client bookings, often same-day


    • Write and post engaging job adverts to attract drivers across all classes


    • Source, screen and register candidates efficiently, ensuring full compliance


    • Manage the full recruitment cycle: vacancy brief to placement to aftercare


    • Maintain strong relationships with active drivers and clients to ensure repeat business


    • Keep CRM systems fully up to date for full visibility and compliance


      What We're Looking For

      • Experience in recruitment or B2B sales is highly desirable


      • Knowledge of the driving or logistics sector is a plus but not essential


      • Resilient, competitive and target-driven, with a strong work ethic


      • Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence decision-makers


      • Able to work at pace, prioritise effectively and stay calm under pressure


      • Comfortable making outbound sales calls and working toward KPIs


        What You'll Get in Return

        • £28,000 - £32,000 basic salary


        • Uncapped commission with a clear, achievable bonus structure


        • Salary reviews every 6 months for hitting objectives


        • 25 days holiday + bank holidays (increasing to 28 after 3 years)


        • Day off for your birthday


        • 1 paid volunteering day per year


        • Ongoing coaching, training, and certified development programmes


        • Career progression into senior or management roles


        • Access to 24/7 GP line, mental health support and accident insurance


        • High street and gym discounts


        • Regular team socials, summer parties and Christmas events


          Ready to Take the Wheel?
