This is a rare opportunity to take full commercial ownership of the Accountancy & Finance specialism across the South Coast with Reed, the UK's most established recruitment brand.

You'll inherit a warm, revenue‑generating desk with long‑standing clients, strong brand recognition, and significant space for growth. Once established, you'll have the autonomy and support to build your own team and grow a high‑performing division around you.

  • Develop and execute clear BD and growth strategies

  • Position yourself as the regional A&F expert with clients and candidates

  • Work alongside senior leadership to build a team once revenue milestones are reached



What We're Looking For

  • Proven success in 360 recruitment (A&F or another white‑collar/professional market)

  • Strong commercial awareness and confidence owning a market

  • A track record of billing, BD, and relationship development

  • Ambition to step into - or continue - leadership

  • A professional, values‑driven approach aligned with fairness, ownership, and collaboration



What You Get

  • Uncapped commission paid on personal and future team billings

  • Clear progression with salary reviews every six months

  • Structured leadership development (commercial strategy, team build, P&L mindset)

  • Industry‑leading tech, AI tools, and the UK's largest candidate database

  • Car allowance + enhanced annual leave

  • Sabbaticals every 5 years & extended paid leave at long‑service milestones

  • Annual luxury holiday draw
