Executive Recruitment ConsultantSouthampton Executive Search, Project Builds & GTM Hiring Energy, Renewables & SaaS£25,000£35,000 base + uncapped commission (up to 50%)We were just named a Sunday Times Best Place to Work 2026.The only recruitment firm in Southampton to make the list. A 94% employee engagement score, with every single category rated excellent. Were also the first recruitment company in Hampshire to become B Corp certified, and weve picked up Best Newcomer, Best New Agency, and Recruitment Agency of the Year along the way.Thats the room youd be walking into.The short versionExecutive Integrity is a specialist search firm. We partner with private equity investors and high-growth businesses across energy, renewables and SaaS to place the talent that drives real enterprise value.At the top end, thats retained executive search: the CEOs, CROs and commercial leaders who take a company from where it is to where the investors need it to be. But we do more than the C-suite. We also build out whole teams the project hires that get a new initiative off the ground, and the go-to-market functions (sales, marketing, customer success) that turn a product into revenue. That work is more junior, faster-moving, and gives you a second engine to bill from alongside the retained mandates.It means variety. One week youre headhunting a Chief Revenue Officer on a retained brief; the next youre scaling a GTM team for a portfolio company thats just raised. Fewer dull days, more ways to win.Looking for a career in sales? Read this bit.Some of our best consultants had never recruited a day in their lives before joining us. They came from car showrooms, gym floors, estate agency, hospitality and retail. What they had in common wasnt a CV full of recruitment, it was the instinct that makes someone good at this: they could hold a conversation with anyone, handle a knock-back without flinching, and they wanted to earn.If that sounds like you, the lack of a recruitment background is not a problem. Well teach you the search. You bring the hunger.You probably recognise yourself here:Youve held down a role and stuck at it youre not someone who jumps ship every six monthsYouve worked somewhere with real customers, real targets, and real pressureYoure comfortable picking up the phone before hiding behind an emailYou stay composed when a deal wobbles or a client pushes backYoure independent, financially motivated, and ready to commit to something properlyA degree is not required. Plenty of our top performers dont have one.What youll actually doLead retained search assignments for private equity-backed and high-growth businessesBuild out project teams and go-to-market functions, managing multiple hires at paceEngage directly with CEOs, CROs and investment partnersMap talent markets and headhunt the people who move the needle, from leadership downManage complex, multi-stakeholder processes from brief to placementGenerate new mandates and build your own client relationships over timeYoull work to clear revenue targets in a high-performance team, with genuine progression and the support to get there.Where it goesExecutive Recruitment Consultant is a core revenue role with a defined path to Managing Consultant and Head of Section. Progression is based on performance and leadership, not how long youve been sitting in the chair. At senior levels you take ownership of a vertical market, hold direct PE relationships, lead on fee negotiation, and get exposure to board-level conversations.By year three, six-figure total earnings are realistic for high performers. And the ceiling is high: bill £1m in a year and youll be driving an electric supercar for twelve months.
