Pros

I was head-hunted into Urban Connect to set up a house-build division and have been given excellent support throughout. That has included off-site and award winning training at Recruitment Entrepreneur's head office in London to an easy to approach Director to excellent and easy to use CRM's that are vital to our work. With an excellent salary package and the best commission scheme I've seen, I'd say the sky really is the limit for your own personal success within the business as the long-term strategy - both for growing your desk and maximising your skillset - genuinely stands out against other construction recruitment firms.

Cons

Any new business has its hiccups, especially one that has short and long-term plans to grow. But that's also an advantage as everyone's input is vital in that vision.

Pros

- The partnership with James Caan's business Recruitment Entrepreneur provides a fantastic platform to develop and grow with unrivalled support from industry leaders in Recruitment, Training, Marketing and Business Strategy. I've learnt so much already from several people within the RE team and across the portfolio of Joint Ventures who are just a phone call away and always happy to help. - We've had several training days down in the London HQ which has been great with lots of practical and easily implementable methods of improving and seminars in our Manchester office from Sam the Head of Marketing who is brilliant at her job and has a great insight into how to more effectively market yourself, your brand and your roles which has already increased traction and engagement from candidates! - Brilliant office atmosphere. The team are all really friendly, funny, supportive and ambitious, which has created the ideal melting pot for enjoying coming to work everyday, but also wanting to continually improve. I've personally beaten my best ever billing month and quarter in the first 6 months working here which is largely down to the support of Andrew the Director who instils belief and confidence and the team environment we've got here. - It's a really exciting time to be joining as we're in growth mode and at the start of a journey that will see us become a leading Recruitment Consultancy in Engineering and Construction. I feel like this is a company in which I can really grow and maximise my potential.

Cons

- Nothing that stands out. We're a small but growing team and things will only improve as more determined and driven individuals join to keep pushing the business, brand and positive reputation forward.
