Build a Career in Specialist Recruitment

Marmon Lift Recruitment is a specialist recruitment business focused exclusively on the UK lift engineering sector — a niche, high-demand technical market where skilled recruiters earn strong commission.

Our mission is simple: “We go beyond recruitment to support and shape careers that last.”

Following 6 years of consistent growth and a surge in vacancies, we are managing a high volume of retained and exclusive roles.

We’re now hiring a Candidate Consultant to work directly alongside founder Ben Marmon.

This is a delivery-focused role centred on candidate sourcing and engagement, with full support and hands-on mentoring. You’ll work on live vacancies with real clients, gaining exposure to the full recruitment lifecycle and the opportunity to earn commission quickly.

Key Responsibilities

• Source candidates using a database built over 10+ years

• Leverage a strong LinkedIn presence (20,000+ weekly impressions)

• Speak with candidates daily using modern systems

• Build strong relationships within the lift industry

• Qualify candidates thoroughly

• Create shortlists for clients

• Support interview processes

Note: This is not a high-pressure environment — we focus on quality relationships and successful placements, putting candidates first.

The Ideal Candidate

• 6–12 months recruitment experience

• Enjoys candidate delivery (not focused on winning new business)

• Confident on the phone and relationship-driven

• Organised, proactive, persistent, and comfortable handling objections

Backgrounds that often succeed: Estate Agency, Lettings, Telesales, Outbound Sales, Customer Success (phone-based roles)

We can teach sourcing — attitude and work ethic are essential.
