Part-Time

Central London

Halliday Marx is turning 15 years old. We have a reputation for common sense and extremely high standards of recruitment and search for our clients.

We are excellent at what we do, but terrible at telling people how good we are.

We are committed to connecting talented professionals with outstanding organizations, no matter how big or small. As part of our expansion, we are seeking a Non-Executive Recruitment Director to provide strategic oversight and leadership across the company. This is a key role that will shape our recruitment strategies and ensure the continued success of our firm.

Role Overview:

We are looking for a Non-Executive Recruitment Director who brings deep expertise in recruitment leadership, talent acquisition, and strategic development. As a Non-Executive Director (NED), you will work closely with the co-founders, offering your experience and guidance on future recruitment processes, talent strategies, and operational effectiveness.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Provide strategic direction and high-level guidance on company strategy.
2. Be a trusted advisor for diversification away from core business activities (e.g., opening up new recruitment silos in new sectors).
3. Oversee and advise on talent acquisition strategies, ensuring they align with the company's goals.
4. Work with the team to develop long-term recruitment strategies and workflows for sustainable growth.
5. Offer insights and counsel on recruitment trends, market intelligence, and best practices.
6. Review and monitor recruitment performance metrics, identifying areas for improvement.
7. Provide advice on recruitment technology and innovation to streamline processes.
8. Advise on marketing strategies that are proven to work and not those that waste time and annoy clients.
9. Represent the company at industry events and forums, building a strong network of recruitment professionals.

Skills & Experience:

1. Proven experience in recruitment leadership, with a strong understanding of our market.
2. Track record of success in a senior recruitment or executive role, ideally within finance search & recruitment.
3. Strong strategic and analytical thinking with the ability to drive recruitment innovation.
4. Strong marketing experience in what works and what is pure buffoonery.
5. Deep knowledge of current recruitment tools, technologies, and platforms.
6. Experience in working at a Non-Executive Director level / trusted advisor is desirable but not essential.

This Role is for You if You:

1. Are a seasoned recruitment leader seeking a strategic advisory role.
2. Have a passion for shaping recruitment strategies that drive business growth.
3. Enjoy working in a collaborative and forward-thinking environment.
