Healthcare Recruitment Consultant Temp, Perm or Hybrid Desk | WatfordWatford, Hertfordshire (WD17), office based. £35,000 to £45,000 basic depending on experience, plus uncapped monthly commission and an annual bonus.Year one OTE £65,000 to £85,000, rising to £100,000 to £110,000+ in years two to three.We're looking for experienced recruitment consultants to join our healthcare recruitment team in Watford, and we'll build the desk around what you're good at.ProfDoc Healthcare has been placing healthcare professionals for over 13 years. We cover primary care, secondary care, elective consultant work, theatres and pharmacy, and we run temp-only, perm-only and hybrid desks. Whichever you bill, there's a seat for you. You'd take on a warm desk with established clients and candidates, and 13 years of placement history to work from.We have several consultants earning at the year two level now. We know OTE figures in job adverts are worth very little on their own, so if you get to interview we'll show you our actual consultant earnings and desk leaderboards and let you judge for yourself.If you come from healthcare or medical recruitmentWe'll take experience from any part of it: nursing, doctors, social care, AHP and allied health professionals, locum, permanent, pharmacy, theatres. If you've built a desk in any healthcare or medical staffing niche, most of what you know carries over and the client conversations will feel familiar.If you come from another sectorOur perm desks suit recruiters who've worked in energy, finance, IT, legal or anywhere else with scarce, high-value candidates. The work is much the same shape: long searches, headhunting people who aren't looking, and clients who want the right person rather than whoever's free.Our temp desks are specialist rather than volume. Smaller numbers, better rates, and clients who need a particular skill set filled properly.We'll train you on the sector itself, meaning the clinical roles, the compliance side, and how healthcare organisations buy. That takes a few weeks. We're not going to teach you to recruit, because you'll already know how.The roleA full 360 recruitment desk covering business development, sourcing, candidate management, negotiation and placement. You'll grow the accounts you inherit and open new ones, and you'll headhunt rather than wait for applications.You'll sit in a division of 18 consultants across primary and secondary care, so there are shared accounts to cross-sell into and people around you who know the market. Marketing and compliance are in-house, which matters more in healthcare recruitment than in most sectors and keeps a lot of admin off your desk.ProgressionEvery manager in every ProfDoc division started here as a consultant. We promote from the desk rather than hiring managers in, so if you want to run a team at some point, we want to hear from you.LocationThe office is in Watford, WD17, close to Watford Junction & Watford High Street Stations, easily commutable from Hemel Hempstead, Kings Langley, St Albans, Rickmansworth, Bushey, Borehamwood, Harrow and London.What we're looking forRecruitment experience, and a billing record you can talk us throughHealthcare, medical or social care recruitment background is a strong advantage, but a strong perm desk in another sector counts for a lotConfident on the phone with both clients and candidatesAble to run your own week without being managed through itConfident self-starters looking to build a substantial desk and/or a team/divisionWhat we offer£35,000 to £45,000 basic depending on experience, reviewed annuallyUncapped commission paid monthly, with year one OTE of £65,000 to £85,000 and year two of £100,000 to £120,000Annual bonus scheme on top of commissionA warm desk with established clients and candidatesTemp, perm or hybrid desks are available across multiple sub-sectorsMonday to Friday, 9am to 6pm, with flexi options of 8am to 5pm or 10am to 6pm20 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing by a day for each year of serviceSector training if you're new to healthcareA management team promoted entirely from withinAnnual incentive holiday for top performers.
