Ready to take your first step in recruitment - and make a real difference? We offer great rewards, a supportive environment, and the chance to drive positive change.
What we do
As the specialist in Health, Safety and Sustainability recruitment, Irwin & Colton performs a crucial function. When we match great people and great roles, we drive positive change in terms of workplace wellbeing, safety and sustainability. We work with a range of global brands, so the candidates we place help to set a forward-thinking agenda across the corporate world. The people we place are a rare combination of hard skills (qualifications / experience), soft skills (communication / problem solving) and passion. Finding these unique people, who add so much value to our clients' organisations, takes experience and judgement.
That's where you come in. We'll give you all the support you need to build a career in recruitment. You'll be well rewarded, both financially and with a regular calendar of team events.
Where?
Rickmansworth Town Centre, a five-minute walk from Rickmansworth Station (Metropolitan and Chiltern Train Line).
About the role
Health and Safety, workplace wellbeing and sustainability are now fundamental business differentiators.

Our team and your place in it
We're a close-knit team, with backgrounds in a broad range of areas, including sales, sustainability, retail and recruitment. We support each other, and we'll happily share our knowledge to help you learn. You'll be well supported by our Directors, who both have over a decade in the industry and have studied, volunteered and worked in the wider safety and sustainability space. We're not just a work team. We regularly socialise and enjoy new experiences. Many of us exercise together, through a weekly lunchtime run. We support a local homelessness charity, so we make a difference together, too.
What we're looking for
Most importantly, we're looking for someone with the drive to succeed. Of course, we value qualifications and knowledge. But our reputation is built on finding candidates who deliver unexpected value. That takes something more.
You’ll need:
1. Tenacity, perseverance, excellent organisational skills and a great work ethic
2. Sales experience would be great, but the right attitude is more important
3. A degree or equivalent vocational qualification is ideal
Our expectations

How we'll support you
We'll support you with specialist knowledge and a collaborative environment, and the latest technology. That includes our Bullhorn CRM system and Broadbean ad manager. You'll also have access to LinkedIn Professional.
Real expertise you can bank on
