Job Description
ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR - CONTRACT DESK - LONDON/HYBRID - £90K - £120K BASE + EQUITY\n

\nUS & UK Tech Markets\n
\nRemote / Flexible\n
\n£100,000 - £120,000 + Performance-Based Equity\n
\nYou already know you could build something.\n
\nYouve got the relationships, market knowledge and confidence to win contract clients. But going solo means taking all the risk yourself.\n
\nThis role gives you the platform without the panic.\n
\nYoull help build a contract recruitment division across the US and UK tech markets. AI, software, cloud, data, cyber, product - the niche is flexible if you can prove the market and open doors.\n
\nThis isnt delivery. It isnt account management. Its a build role.\n
\nYoull be expected to bring in contracts and clients quickly. In return, youll get serious backing, a £100,000 - £120,000 basic, and a route to equity based on deals closed and milestones hit.\n
\nWhat youll be doing:\n
\nYoull win new tech contract clients, bring in live requirements, place contractors and help shape the contract strategy across the US and UK.\n
\nOver time, you will build a team, lead a market, or help launch multiple contract verticals.\n

\nStrong contract recruitment experience in a tech market.\n
\nEvidence you can win clients, not just service accounts.\n
\nA self-starting approach, commercial confidence, and a clear idea of where youd start.\n
\nRemote, hybrid or office-based can all work. Output matters more than location - but being able to get to North of London\n
\nAbout the company:\n
\nAn established recruitment business investing properly into contract recruitment, with plans to grow across the US and UK.\n
\nYoull get backing, funding and infrastructure, without someone sitting over your shoulder checking call times.\n

\n£90,000 - £120,000 basic\n
\nPerformance-based equity\n
\nRemote / flexible working\n
\nUS and UK growth opportunity\n
