Join Life at Proactive

Come and join a passionate team of dedicated people who deliver an exceptional recruitment service to our clients, from 11 branch offices across Shropshire, the West Midlands and North West.

We’d love for you to join us and share our passion for people. Being driven to succeed is part of our fabric, and sharing in each other’s success is at the very heart of our culture.

Whether you’re taking your first step into recruitment as a trainee or you’re an experienced recruiter with a solid agency background, you’ll feel right at home as a member of the Proactive family.

Your New Job as a Proactive Recruiter

No two days are the same as a Recruiter at Proactive Personnel. You’ll be a natural people person with a flair for outbound sales and relationship management. You’ll be working in a busy office environment as part of a dedicated team in one of our branch offices, generating new business and recruiting people across the region aligned with your core sector.

And because we encourage our people to think differently and build on their potential, we’ll even give you the opportunity to join an existing vertical market recruitment desk already operating in the business, or build your own. Using our dedicated in-house and external sourcing tools, you’ll find and interview candidates, and work with them until they’re successfully placed in a new role.

Focussed Career Progression

We know that career success means different things to different people. That’s why we’ve worked hard over the years to develop a career plan for every one of our recruiters, to ensure they’re on the path to their own version of career success.

You’ll have regular reviews, and branch support from your Branch Manager, Regional Director and other experienced recruiters. You’ll also work to realistic targets for which you’ll be very well rewarded when you smash them (which we’ll help you do!)

We have a proven history of promoting internally. In fact, all of our directors started in the business as recruitment consultants and have worked their way up through the ranks.

What Our People Say...

I love working at Proactive because no two days are ever the same. The best part of my job is the close-knit team I work with daily; we're always there to help each other and provide support when needed.

Proactive Personnel are a great company to work for, they're extremely supportive and help you to achieve all of your career goals. The company has given me the chance to succeed and build the career I've always dreamt of. There is no better feeling than when you help a candidate into the next step of their employment. They really are the best company to work for.

I love working at Proactive because there's a genuine culture of teamwork. Sharing roles, candidates, best practices and information within the team as well as between branches is some of the best I’ve ever experienced in a business. The best thing about my job is the freedom I have to develop my desk. Fresh ideas regarding business development, client engagement, candidate attraction and company culture are met with enthusiasm by managers and directors alike.

Talking about why I love my job is easy for me 🙂 I had worked in administration previously and I've always been very conscious that I'm not actively bringing in revenue for the business. At Proactive, even though I don't directly make money per se, I'm always made to feel important and appreciated. I can see day to day how the work I do helps my colleagues and my value in the team. Also, Proactive works around its employees and has helped me to not only have a career that fits around me but really value the work that I do.

The best thing about my job is working with fantastic candidates and clients and building relationships with them both. It's great when a candidate gets their dream job and a client fills their role with an amazing candidate. Relationship building is the best part of the role at Proactive!
