Basingstoke UK, Hampshire, United Kingdom GS2 | B Corp™ Full time

Recruitment Director - Energy Desk


We are GS2, a Global Sustainable Executive Search organisation, driven by our purpose, to connect the people who wish to leave the world better than we found it.


As a certified B Corp organisation, sustainability is linked to our day to day working environment, with triple bottom line targets (people, planet, profit) and 2% of our profits being donated to exceptional charity causes each year, chosen by us, the individuals who work at GS2.


Owing to ongoing expansion, we are now seeking to recruit a passionate Recruitment Director to drive the growth of our Energy division, connecting skilled professionals with sustainable companies driving solar, wind, hydro, tidal, nuclear and battery storage solutions for a greener future.


What are we looking to achieve through this critical hire?

The mission of this role is to establish and build a renewable energy desk where you will capitalise on our existing deep-rooted relationships whilst constantly developing new business opportunities.

Sitting within our leadership team and working closely with the Founder of the business, the successful incumbent will build a team, so will be a confident leader. Progression in this role would lead to being part of the executive management team.


As a Recruitment Director, we are looking for a candidate with the following:

  • Proven leadership capabilities, having run and developed a team.
  • Demonstrable experience of developing a new desk from the ground up.
  • Experience of holding responsibility for a divisional P&L, alongside accountability to set and meet team targets.
  • A methodical, persistent and relentless approach to developing new business within the renewable energy sector, diligently establishing and nurturing new client and candidate relationships.
  • A hunger towards being recognised as an industry expert, regularly staying updated on industry trends and market shifts in sustainable energy and possessing a strong, long established network of contacts within the sector.
  • If you have proven experience in another specialism but have an appetite to start in an energy desk then please do reach out for a conversation.


Joining part of our Founding Team at GS2, you will become an integral member of one of the only specialist firms within the sustainability field. You will also benefit from:

  • A highly competitive, industry leading salary and commission structure.
  • Experiencing exponential growth and being rewarded through our leadership LTIP.
  • Gaining access to our industry leading non-exec for quarterly coaching sessions.
  • Working in a high-performing, high-accountability environment
  • Working for a certified B Corp business, showcasing our commitment to being an ethical and positive impact business.
  • The flexibility to work from any location within a 4 hour time zone for up to two weeks of the year.
  • One week of additional annual leave each year to spend on social impact activities.
  • Christmas closure with a minimum of 3 additional annual leave days to protect your family time.


For a confidential conversation about this opportunity, reach out directly to our Founder, Josh Huggins for a discreet conversation.
