Recruitment Account Manager (OTE 50K)

Specialist Engineering Recruitment | West Midlands

Highly competitive basic salary • uncapped commission • established key accounts

Own the accounts. Grow the relationships. Get rewarded for both.

Osprey Engineering Solutions is a specialist recruitment consultancy embedded in the UK engineering sector. For close to a decade we’ve partnered with manufacturers, distributors and OEMs across fluid power, flow control, pneumatics, hydraulics, controlled bolting, automation, motion control, power transmission, robotics, compressors and filtration — placing the people who keep British industry moving.

We’re now looking for an experienced Recruitment Account Manager to take ownership of a portfolio of established key accounts and run them as your own. This is a hybrid role — part consultant, part account holder — built for someone who is as commercially sharp on client development as they are on quality of delivery.

What you’ll be doing

* Owning a portfolio of warm, established key accounts — you’re their first call, their trusted adviser and their escalation point

* Running a 360 desk across the account base — taking briefs, sourcing talent and managing candidates all the way to offer and aftercare

* Growing account spend through deeper relationships, cross-selling into sister sites, and identifying roles before they’re advertised

* Building structured account plans, SLAs and reporting that give clients genuine confidence in our service

* Working alongside our specialist consultants to deliver at pace and to a high standard

* Representing Osprey at client sites, industry events and trade shows

What we’re looking for

* A proven recruiter or account manager — ideally from engineering, technical, industrial or manufacturing recruitment, though strong account managers from adjacent specialist sectors will be considered

* A track record of growing existing accounts year on year, with the billings to back it up

* Confident, consultative communicator — equally comfortable with a shop-floor engineer and a managing director

* Commercially sharp — you understand margins, retention and lifetime value, not just headline fees

* Organised and accountable — you keep your CRM tidy, your forecasts honest and your clients informed

* Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to client sites across the UK

* Based within commutable distance of Oldbury / the West Midlands

What we offer

* Highly competitive basic salary, benchmarked against your experience and account portfolio

* Uncapped commission scheme that rewards account growth, not just one-off placements

* A warm, mature portfolio of engineering clients — no cold starts

* Autonomy, trust and no micromanagement — we hire adults and treat them that way

* Clear path to senior and leadership roles for the right person

* Midlands office, tight-knit team, car allowance incentive, and regular Travel incentives
