Senior / Lead Tech Recruiter

Manchester, UK

Senior Tech Recruiter - Build Your Market, Your Way

Manchester | Hybrid / Remote

Up to £45K base + 50% commission


This is your chance to join a profitable, people-first tech recruitment firm offering full autonomy, flexibility, and exceptional earning potential. Ideal for an experienced recruiter who thrives without KPIs, wants to shape their own market, and values genuine balance between their career and life!


Whats on Offer ⭐️


  • Up to £45K base DOE.

  • Bespoke 50% commission, paid quarterly (e.g. bill £200K, take home £100K).

  • On-site Gym + membership paid for.

  • Hybrid / Remote Flex - Ideally 1/2 days in Manchester, but no set days in office.

  • “Work from anywhere” perk for total lifestyle flexibility - fancy a week working from Barcelona?

  • Quarterly wellbeing day (aka duvet day) on top of your holiday allowance!

  • Charity days & CSR partnerships that actually mean something.

  • Win Together - If target is hit, everyone goes on lunch club!


The Role 🎯


  • You’ll own your market from the ground up as a 360 Consultant - building relationships, defining your niche, and delivering quality. You’ll have full trust from leadership to run your desk how you see fit.

  • You’ll be joining a tight, collaborative team already covering JavaScript, .NET, Product, Data/AI & Exec Search, with plenty of space to carve out your own specialist patch.

  • No activity trackers or tick-box meetings. Just genuine trust, flexibility, and the space to perform at your best.


About You 🔎


  • A self-sufficient 360 recruiter with a track record of billing & building a tech desk.

  • You know your niche (or have a clear plan for one) and can run it self sufficiently - whether that be Software, Data, AI, Product, Engineering, ERP, Cyber, or another tech-adjacent area.

  • Confident, sharp & motivated by success - not by someone else’s targets.

  • Ideally based in or around Manchester/ North West, but open to something more remote for the right person.


This is the perfect move if you’re a capable, experienced recruiter ready to step away from your typical recruitment environment and want build something meaningful with a down-to-earth, high-performing team.


If that sounds like you - let’s talk autonomy, flexibility and serious earnings 🚀

If this role feels like it could be a fit, even if you don’t tick every box, we’d still love to chat! One of the best parts of working through a Rec2Rec partner is that we often have other roles that might suit you better - they’re just not all visibly listed. Hit apply anyway and we’ll help you figure out which opportunity is the right one for you.
