Who We Are

Harnham is a specialized recruitment agency that is leading the pack when it comes to Data & AI recruitment. We work with a variety of clients on highly specialized roles in Data & AI across several industries such as sports/fitness, entertainment, automotive, engineering, financial, healthcare, defense, and more.

We have been in this space since 2006, when we were founded in the UK, and have continued to grow alongside the market as it has expanded over the past 17 years. Since then, the business has expanded beyond the UK with offices around the globe in New York, San Francisco, Phoenix, and Amsterdam.

We are known for our top-of-the-line training programs with our world-class L&D team, internal growth opportunities, reliability and expertise in the market, impressive client lists, and energetic environment.

The Job as a Recruitment Consultant - Please Note That This Is A Sales Job!!

• You will be a full-desk recruiter which means you are responsible for taking ownership of the entire recruitment life cycle from start to finish
• This means you will spend half of your day doing cold outreach and business development to build new client relationships & sell our services to high-level hiring managers at companies external to Harnham to support in hiring specialized talent for their teams and then spend the other half of the day sourcing and screening qualified candidates for the roles.
• You will develop candidate and client relationships through various means such as cold calling, headhunting, networking, etc., and will provide a high level of service and expertise in the market to become their go-to recruiter
• You will be working in a highly productive sales environment and will be expected to consistently hit targets that have been set out for you
• You can expect to face rejection (especially when cold calling) throughout the day as this is a sales role, so you must be able to be resilient and motivated to pick yourself back up and keep pushing forward

About You

We used to call our training a graduate program, and we of course are still really interested in speaking to graduates however we have recently changed our wording to ensure that people know that we welcome applicants from all backgrounds for the role. Given that we provide full training to do the role your drive and energy are more important. So whether you are looking to change careers or return to work – we would love to hear from you.
