Recruitment Consultant – Consumer Brands

Build your own market. Become an expert. Work with brands you’ll be proud to represent.

You’re good at recruitment.

Now it’s time to become known for something.

At Acquire, you won’t inherit a busy desk or spend your day filling low-value jobs. You’ll build your own specialist market within the disruptive consumer sector, develop long-term relationships with candidates and founders, and establish yourself as the recruiter clients and candidates trust in your niche.

It won’t be easy.

Building a market takes persistence, curiosity, resilience and consistent effort. It means picking up the phone, asking great questions, following up, and having conversations every day. But if you’re ambitious and want to become genuinely exceptional at recruitment, we’ll give you the platform, support and opportunity to do it.

What You’ll Gain
✔ Build your own specialist market—not just manage vacancies.
✔ Work with exciting consumer brands across Health & Wellness, Pet, Food & Beverage, Beauty & Personal Care and Lifestyle.
✔ Learn directly from experienced recruiters in a collaborative environment.
✔ Progress based on performance, not time served.
✔ Earn uncapped commission with no ceiling on your success.
✔ Help shape a growing business where your contribution genuinely matters.

What You’ll Do
You’ll help ambitious DTC and consumer brands hire exceptional talent within your specialist market.

Your responsibilities will include:
Researching and mapping your market.
Building relationships with founders, hiring managers and candidates through calls, LinkedIn, networking and referrals.
Speaking to people every day to understand businesses, careers and hiring challenges.
Interviewing and qualifying candidates.
Managing recruitment processes from first conversation through to placement.
Developing market insight that helps clients make better hiring decisions.
Building a reputation as the trusted recruitment specialist within your niche.

As your experience grows, so will your responsibility.

Our goal is for you to own your market and become the recruiter that clients and candidates think of first.

Who We’re Looking For
You might have 6–18 months’ experience in recruitment, sales or another commercial role.

More importantly, we’re looking for someone who:

Enjoys speaking to people and isn’t afraid to pick up the phone.
Is commercially curious and genuinely interested in how businesses grow.
Loves asking questions and learning from every conversation.
Understands that consistent activity creates opportunities.
Is resilient, self-motivated and doesn’t give up after hearing “no”.
Takes ownership of their own success rather than waiting for opportunities to come to them.
Welcomes feedback and is committed to continuous improvement.
Wants to become recognised as an expert within a specialist market.
Sees recruitment as a long-term career, not just another job.

How You’ll Be Successful
Success at Acquire isn’t about making the most calls—it’s about building the strongest relationships.

The consultants who thrive here are the ones who stay curious, speak to people every day, follow up consistently and become genuine experts in their market.

We believe that every conversation has value. Today’s call could become tomorrow’s placement, next month’s client or a referral years down the line.

The more relationships you build, the more opportunities you create—and the greater your earning potential.
