About us

Due to the continued growth of our Utilities & Energy division, and the appointment of a number of key hires across the group within the last 18 months, we are looking for a Principle Consultant to join the Utilities & Energy division.

Rullion as a whole has been established for over 40 years, with our core strengths in the IT, Engineering, Nuclear and Energy markets. We are agile and constantly adapting to the industry, having expanded our service offerings to cover contingency, retained and specialist skill projects, as well as more tailored solutions such as Projects as a Service (our SoW offering), Managed Solutions and outsourced Programme Services. We are well supported by an award-winning Marketing department as well as several key senior sales / business development directors within the business.

Summary of the Role

We are keen to hear from experienced Recruitment Consultants and Senior Consultants, ideally with a background in our core markets (Utilities, Oil & Gas, Energy, Chemicals), although we can also consider strong consultants from other verticals also who are looking to specialist in our Sector.

We are looking for someone who wants to focus on growth and be driven by new business sales and targets. There will be some accounts that need expanding, some accounts that need reengagement, and brand new accounts you bring in yourself.

We offer uncapped, market-leading commission up to 30% of billings, and genuine remote / flexible working options with a number of consultants in this team taking full advantage. We have also recently revamped our learning and development programme, offering all consultants realistic opportunities to develop into managerial level roles.

Other benefits include group pension scheme, 40 days off (25 days holiday plus banks, an additional four "Reload days" off and Christmas closedown), holiday purchase scheme, enhanced maternity and paternity pay / leave, £1000 employee referral scheme, flexible working, employee assistance programme and long service awards (ranging from weekends away to vouchers and paid sabbaticals). We have also recently relaunched our 2023 Rewards and Recognition programme, offering a variety of prizes and accolades to employees across all areas of our business.

This will be a home based role with some occasional travel into our Altrincham head office, ideally once per week to work alongside the rest of the team.
