Camino Partners are excited to be partnering with a London-based high-growth STEM recruitment business who are looking to develop their L+D team with a strong leader with recruitment experience.
The Head of L&D represents an important function in the delivery of the business strategy.
This is a high-impact position reporting directly to the CEO and working closely with the Sales Directors.
This is a rare opportunity to shape the performance DNA of a growing recruitment business at a pivotal stage. You will work directly with the CEO, influence leadership capability, build a scalable academy model and leave a lasting imprint on culture and performance standards across the organisation.
What You Will Do:
- Own and deliver the full L&D strategy across the business — from graduate academy through to leadership development — aligned to growth and performance targets.
- Design and run a high-performance graduate programme, taking entry-level hires from onboarding through to billing readiness, embedding standards, KPIs and accountability from day one.
- Coach across the full recruitment lifecycle (perm and contract), supporting both entry-level and experienced consultants to improve BD, candidate management, negotiation and closing capability.
- Partner closely with Sales Directors and team leaders to identify performance gaps, elevate standards and directly impact revenue outcomes.
- Develop measurable training frameworks, including assessments, benchmarking and ROI reporting across teams and brands.
- Deliver training personally and visibly, maintaining credibility on the sales floor and leading all L&D communication across the business.
- Manage and evolve training resources and external suppliers, ensuring content remains commercially relevant and performance driven.
What We're Looking For:
- Recruitment background is essential — either as a high-performing recruiter or L&D professional within a recruitment business
- Proven experience training and developing graduates and entry-level consultants
- Credibility with experienced billers and sales leaders
- Commercially minded and aligned to business growth
- Hard-working, resilient and energetic
- Strategic in thinking but operational in delivery
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, performance-driven environment
