Vocay is a leading executive search, recruitment and consulting firm specialised in the Recruitment profession in Asia. We partner with clients, from hyper growth startups to established Fortune 10 companies, to select and appoint recruiters using both contingent and retained solutions. We also help professionals navigate and advance their careers.
Since our founding 4 years ago, we have established a strong reputation as one of the leading consultancies in our specialism in Asia markets. We are excited to be expanding and we’re looking for a Graduate Recruitment Consultant or Researcher to join our team in Singapore.
Initially, your role will involve developing candidate networks in the recruitment to recruitment market and building relationships with middle to senior level recruiters. You will work closely with Cameron Smart, one of our directors, who will provide training both in sessions and on the job to support the transition into recruitment and your practice. The goal is for you to become a highly reputable and go-to recruiter for candidates.
As you progress, you will have an opportunity to transition into a 270/360 role (integrating account management and business development into your responsibilities) or remain in a 270 role. The opportunities are endless and we progress and reward people based on merit, not just tenure.
We are different from other agencies. We take a relationship-driven approach to recruitment and business. We do a lot of marketing work, such as articles and podcasts, that helps get our brand out there into the market, despite being a startup. In addition, we are forward-thinking. We are always trying and employing the latest technology to help recruiters focus on what matters, meeting people and developing relationships. Our cloud setup allows consultants to work fully remotely.
The environment at Vocay is entrepreneurial, professional and collaborative. It’s well suited for people who are ambitious, highly adaptable and commercial. We operate a modem, highly autonomous environment including flexible hours, early Friday finishes and a work from home scheme for recruiters who are on target. Our office is based at WeWork in Raffles Place.
