Recruitment Manager in SOUTH AFRICA

The Civi Group is a Boston, MA, USA based recruiting agency specializing in the Construction, Engineering, and Architecture industries. Due to company growth, we are looking to add an entrepreneurial and experienced Recruiting Manager to our recruiting team.

In this position, you'll focus on building a network of candidates in the US Northeast who work in the Construction, Architecture, and Engineering industries. Since most candidates in this field are busy and not checking emails, cold calling will be a key strategy. You'll also use a combination of job boards, LinkedIn, and cold calling to grow your candidate pool.

As your talent pool gets larger, the focus will shift from sourcing new candidates to maintaining and strengthening the relationships you've already built.

Long-term growth includes eventually working directly with US clients.

Compensation:

• Base salary depends on experience but is up to $2,000 USD per month, paid weekly.
• Commissions on placements average 5% of total revenue, or about $1,000 per placement
