Andersen James Group \| £25,000 \- £28,000 \& uncapped commission

This isn't your average first job.

Andersen James (AJ) is a fast\-growing global recruitment specialist operating in some of the world's most in\-demand sectors: data centres, renewable energy, civil infrastructure, and construction. We're expanding rapidly, and we're looking for 2–3 people to join our Sheffield team and grow with us.

What you'll actually be doing:

Recruitment is a sales job. It's also a people job. You'll be on the phone, building relationships with candidates and clients, matching exceptional talent to high\-impact roles across our core sectors. You'll learn the full 360° recruitment cycle, from sourcing candidates and winning clients, to managing the entire hiring process end\-to\-end.

Who we're looking for?

We're not hiring for experience. We're hiring the person.

You might be a recent graduate who's hungry and hasn't found a role that matches your ambition yet. You might have a year or two in sales and want something with more earning potential and clear progression. You might be a former athlete who's competitive to your core and knows how to show up every day.

What we need from you:

  • A genuine hunger to be great, not just good

  • Willing to put in the hours

  • Sales experience or a background that proves you can handle rejection and keep going

  • Strong communication skills: on the phone, in person, in writing

  • Competitive instincts and a high personal standard

  • The discipline to be consistent, not just occasionally brilliant

  • Based in (or able to commute to) Sheffield
No recruitment experience needed. No sector experience required. We'll teach you everything, but we can't teach drive.

What you'll get in return

  • £25,000 \- £28,000

  • Industry\-leading commission structure \- uncapped

  • Clear, transparent progression targets

  • 25 days annual leave \+ bank holidays \+ your birthday off

  • Private healthcare unlocked at Principal Consultant \& upwards

  • City centre \& modern office

  • Company events \& overseas trips
Professional Development
  • A structured training programme designed to get you billing fast

  • Defined promotion pathway from Associate through to Principal Consultant, and Partner

  • A real meritocracy \- your progression is based on your performance, not your tenure

  • Access to a senior leadership team with 20\+ years of experience scaling specialist recruitment businesses globally
Why AJ, why now?

We're 10 years in and growing faster than ever. In 2025 we hit 50 people globally, opened our Orlando, Austin and Dubai offices. With ambitious GP and headcount targets, we are only moving one way, and that is up.

The people we hire right now will be the team leaders, managers, and future directors of this business. That's not a promise we make lightly \- it's the plan.

Pay: £25,000\.00\-£28,000\.00 per year

Benefits:

  • Company events

  • Company pension

  • Sick pay
Work Location: In person
