Associate Recruitment Consultant

Recruitment Consultant (360) – Trainee / Associate Level

Onsite - Austin, Texas

Our US business launched in Austin in 2025.

In our first year, we exceeded our goals and built strong partnerships across the North American deep-tech market.

The next phase is growth, and that means investing in people.

We're looking for someone that has the qualities and competencies to stand out in this crowded space. Someone that is open to being developed, not through online modules or generic playbooks, but through in-person training, daily coaching, and real responsibility.

You’ll join our Austin office as employee number 4. You'll be trained in person on how to run a full 360 recruitment desk in specialist deep-tech markets. From day one, you’ll sit alongside experienced recruiters, learn by doing, and be coached through every stage of the process.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Learning how to develop and manage client relationships across semiconductors, AI, software, quantum and photonics
• Building and maintaining a high-quality network of specialist candidates across the US
• Running end-to-end recruitment processes with close, hands‑on support
• Developing strong commercial, negotiation, and market‑mapping skills
• Contributing directly to the growth of IC Resources’ US presence

This is a heavily supported, in‑person training role. You will receive:

• Daily desk‑side coaching and feedback in our Austin office
• Structured training on candidate sourcing, client development, and deal execution
• Live call coaching and shadowing with experienced consultants
• Ongoing development as you progress from trainee to fully autonomous consultant

We invest time and energy into your development because we expect a lot in return.

• Early‑career experience in recruitment, sales, or a commercial environment, or a strong desire to move into it
• High work ethic and willingness to put in the time required to build a market
• Coachability and openness to feedback
• Confidence communicating with senior engineers, founders, and executives
• Curiosity about advanced technology and complex industries

• This is not a remote or passive role.
• You’ll be in the office, learning fast, being challenged, and held to high standards.
• The first year is demanding, but it sets you up with skills and earning potential that compound over time.

• 25 years as a specialist technology recruitment firm
• A growing US business with strong leadership on the ground
• In‑person training and real mentorship, not generic onboarding
• A leading commission structure tied directly to performance
• The opportunity to be part of building a meaningful, long‑term business
