Principal Recruitment Consultant | Luxury Retail | Sydney

Work with iconic retail brands. Shape careers. Celebrate the wins.

The Walk Into

With a fresh new fit out our Sydney office is home to a results driven group of individuals who are experts within their brands. At Retailworld mornings kick off with a quick huddle, a strong coffee (if that's your thing) and clear priorities to set you up for a productive day.

As an experienced recruiter, you'll join us at Principal Consultant level — experienced, well networked with a proven track record of success. You will have full ownership of a permanent recruitment desk — working with established luxury clients and continue to build & expand your book of business. We are fast paced, people focused and constantly evolving. As you know, no one day is the same.

Most of your day will be spent connecting with high calibre talent, continuing to develop a very warm desk, becoming a trusted partner with your customers – candidates and clients and working on roles that are critical.

The Role

The aim of the game is to achieve and/or exceed your sales target through effective delivery of recruitment assignments, managing both clients and candidates within the designated industry sector. To the market, you should be the recruiter of choice to both clients and candidates in your designated sector. A high achiever who is inspirational across Retailworld and the wider RWR Group. You have initiative, can identify and take the lead in opportunities for the wider business.

You'll have the commercial maturity to understand business needs, ask the right questions and tailor your approach accordingly. Whether you\'re taking a brief, pitching talent, managing offers or providing advice, you know how to have momentum and keep close to the dollar

You'll be comfortable working to goals and KPIs, self managing your desk and driving activity in a way that aligns with both short and long term success. You'll also play an active role in team culture and development — contributing ideas, sharing wins and collaborating to get results.
