Job description

Here's the same treatment. This one's a different sell — the first ad was "come learn the trade," this one's "come own a desk and get paid properly." I've leaned into autonomy and earnings rather than training and support.

Recruitment Consultant – FMCG Engineering & Technical
Watford, Hertfordshire | Up to £40,000 basic + uncapped commission | Remote flexibility

An established FMCG engineering desk. Warm clients. No cap on what you earn.

Synergi Recruitment specialises in engineering and manufacturing recruitment, partnering with some of the UK's biggest names in FMCG and food production.

We're growing, and we want an experienced consultant to take ownership of a market that's already producing — not build one from a cold list.

The desk

This is a full 360 role in FMCG engineering and technical recruitment. You'll inherit live client relationships and an existing market presence, and you'll have the freedom to grow it however you see fit.

  • Running your own 360 desk across FMCG engineering and technical
  • Partnering with food production and manufacturing businesses UK-wide
  • Sourcing and placing maintenance, automation, project and technical engineers
  • Owning the process end to end — qualification through to placement and beyond
  • Growing existing accounts and opening new ones
  • Building a network that makes you the obvious person to call in this market

Who we're after

You've recruited before — ideally in engineering, manufacturing or FMCG, though strong technical recruiters from adjacent markets will pick this up fast.

Beyond that: you can win business as well as deliver it, you manage your own diary without being chased, and you're motivated by what you can earn rather than what you're told to hit.

What's on offer

  • Basic salary up to £40,000, depending on experience
  • Uncapped commission — no thresholds designed to stop you
  • Remote working flexibility once you're up and running
  • An established client base and genuine market credibility to sell from
  • Real progression, including team lead and management routes
  • A team of experienced recruiters who know the market inside out

Why Synergi

We've built this business on honest conversations and long relationships. Clients come back because we tell them the truth about their vacancy, and candidates come back because we don't ghost them. If you recruit that way already, you'll fit.

Whether you're in FMCG recruitment now or in engineering recruitment and want to specialise, we'd like to speak with you.
