About the role

Thinking about making the move into Recruitment, but unsure what your career will actually look like? Here is your 3-year career forecast: Events vs Recruitment Scroll down to choose your track: OPTION A: The Traditional Events Track Year 1: Work 60-hour weeks, run 15 seamless events, and hit every target. Only to receive a standard performance review and a fixed base salary. Year 2: Ask about a promotion or pay bump to match your increased workload. Get told, "The budget is tight this year, but let's re-evaluate after festival season." Year 3: Finally get a title promotion to Senior Event Coordinator, paired with a modest 3–5% raise that barely covers your extra coffees during weekend shifts. OPTION B: The Recruitment Track (Recruitment Consultant) Year 1 | Launch & Sprint: Pivot into recruitment sales and learn the recruitment delivery process. Source specialist tech talent, manage client accounts, and unlock up to 3 merit-based promotions in 12 months. Average earnings: €50,000+. Year 2 | Accelerated Autonomy: Earn 2 more promotions, hit Senior Consultant status, build your own portfolio, and scale your uncapped commission. Average earnings: €78,000+. Year 3 | Executive Leadership: Step into a Team Lead or Principal role, build and mentor your own team, and drive sector strategy. Average earnings: €115,000+ (top earners exceed this).
