You’ve built a reputation for delivering results and forming long-lasting relationships. Now you’re ready for a role that offers ownership, market growth, and the backing of a team that understands experienced recruiters.

At Ganymede, we’re hiring a Principal Recruitment Consultant to join our Derby team. Our core sectors - Civils, Infrastructure, Water, and Transportation - are well-established, consistently in demand, and full of opportunity for someone who knows how to develop and grow a strong market.

Agile working to balance focus and flexibility
Full 360 ownership of your desk with resourcing and marketing support
Structured backing from experienced leaders who understand the sector
Long-term development opportunities within a high-performing team
The Role

You’ll run your own desk, shaping and growing your market in a way that plays to your strengths. Responsibilities include:

Business development and client management across established markets
Sourcing, engaging, and placing candidates
Managing the full recruitment cycle from start to finish
Building sustainable, long-term relationships with clients and candidates
You’ll have access to recruitment technology, resourcing support, and marketing tools to make your work more efficient, allowing you to focus on results and relationships.

Why Ganymede?

We’re part of RTC Group PLC, combining stability with the focus and agility of a specialist recruitment business.

Our consultants stay because they’re backed properly, given the tools to succeed, and trusted to run their desks in ways that suit their strengths.
