TYG is expanding!


We’re hiring a Principal Recruitment Consultant to join our London team.


We’re a market-leading recruitment company in the Architecture, Engineering & Construction space, partnering with clients across the USA.

This is a high-impact hire and a chance to be part of the core group shaping what TYG becomes next.


What makes us different

  • True autonomy to run and scale your desk in your own style
  • The opportunity to build out new verticals or deepen existing ones within AEC
  • A genuine voice in company strategy, team growth, and how we scale
  • Entry into our principal group with clear priority for future leadership roles
  • High-earning commission structure (US market = bigger fees)
  • Direct access to the directors and meaningful influence on company direction
  • A supportive, high-performance culture that values long-term success over quick wins


What you’ll get

  • Competitive principal-level base salary + uncapped commission
  • Early finish Fridays + hybrid working
  • Full back-office and operational support
  • Management training and leadership development
  • Regular socials, incentives & yearly trip abroad
  • WeWork Devonshire Square office (free coffee, free beer, regular events)


The role

  • Own and grow a high-performing desk within the AEC market
  • Develop long-term strategic client partnerships
  • Lead complex senior-level searches
  • Contribute to business planning, market positioning, and process improvement
  • Support and develop junior consultants where desired
  • Help shape the next generation of TYG consultants


We’re looking for

  • Significant experience as a recruiter within the AEC space (or a closely related vertical)
  • A strong track record of billing and client development
  • Someone who enjoys building, not just billing
  • Commercial, self-directed, and comfortable with full ownership
  • A natural mentor who leads by example
  • Ambition to step into formal leadership as the business scales


If you’re a Principal-level recruiter looking for real autonomy, strategic influence, and a clear path into leadership within a growing, supportive business, we’d love the opportunity to speak with you.
