Trainee Recruitment Consultant​/Resourcer

Trainee Recruitment Consultant/Resourcer – Glasgow

Your new job in recruitment. At Clarkson Owens Specialist Recruitment we are experiencing a sustained period of organic growth in our Construction Division. As a result we are seeking applications from individuals looking to forge a career in Recruitment to join our Glasgow operation. We need the right people to help us expand our footprint within these sectors and to assist us in coping with the high volume job flow we are currently experiencing.

Experience with in the sectors would be advantageous but not essential as full training and support will be provided for the right individual. You may be a Trainee Recruitment Consultant/Resourcer already and not feeling that you are being given the right direction, support and training or a recent Graduate looking to take the first steps in your career.

Established in 2007 as Xltec Recruitment the organisation underwent a rebrand in 2018 after 11 years of successful trading specifically within the Oil & Gas industry. The idea behind the rebrand was to position the organisation to deliver a more tailored recruitment offering to the Construction and Professional Service sectors. Trading as Clarkson Owens we dominate the Glasgow Construction market for Construction Management and Commercial Appointments, have a strong foothold within the Financial Services sector and with the new wins in both sectors now look to invest in our headcount and increase our impact in the markets.

Our strategy is to grow and expand organically, preferring to invest in individuals rather than targeting sectors, although sometimes the business finds us and we are forced to react. In anything we do or undertake we aim to be the best, to dominate the market and whilst doing so deliver the best customer experience to both our clients and candidates.
