Hiring: Senior Recruitment Consultant / Recruitment Lead | Construction & Data Centres | Dubai (Hybrid)
Up to AED 20,000/month basic + up to 25% commission + team overrides + equity potential
I'm partnering with a new specialist recruitment business that's being built from the ground up, focused on white-collar construction and data centre hiring across the GCC. They're looking for their first lead recruiter: someone to own the market, build the desk and eventually run the division.
This isn't a seat at an established agency with a ready-made client base. It's a chance to get in at the start, build something of your own, and share in the value you create.
What you'll do
• Run a full 360 desk across white-collar construction: commercial, project management, engineering, technical and senior leadership roles
• Bring in and grow client relationships with contractors, developers and consultancies across the GCC
• Build out the fast-growing data centre construction vertical
• Help shape the company's strategy, processes and target markets
• Hire, lead and develop your own team as the business grows
• Own the revenue and profitability of your division
What you'll need
• 4+ years of GCC recruitment experience in white-collar construction
• An established network and book of client relationships
• A hungry, entrepreneurial mindset and a clear understanding of what joining a startup involves
• Ideally, several years at an established agency and a feeling that you're ready to build something yourself
The package
• Up to AED 20,000 monthly basic salary
• Up to 25% commission
• Team overrides on your consultants' billings as you build your team
• Equity potential after 12 months, tied to performance, revenue and profitability targets, with scope to increase in year two
• Hybrid working
• A clear path into senior leadership
