Due to an increase in business there is an exciting opportunity for a talented and ambitious recruitment consultant who wants to be part of a growing, fun and people orientated company, to develop a warm desk running at 60 – 70 temp days a week with big clients already in place.  Being a market leader we ensure we provide a consultative service for clients and candidates, delivering the highest levels of customer service. We focus on understanding the needs of schools, so you will need to work with clients and candidates to find the perfect fit between both parties.  Taking on all aspects of business development, you will use your communication skills to develop both existing and new business relationships both on the phone and face to face.  Whilst continuously looking for new and proactive ways of generating and building relationships with quality candidates.

In return we can offer you a fun and vibrant place to work, in a supportive team environment that will help to make you a successful consultant; you just need motivation, drive, a great personality and desire to succeed.  Protocol is a fun environment to work with lots of incentives for consultants including dress down Fridays, team breakfast and lunch, nights out, team building days, winning extra days holiday and time off tokens.
