About Task Talent Recruitment Ltd
Task Talent Recruitment Ltd (Company No. 15839695) is a UK recruitment consultancy delivering permanent, contract, and temporary staffing solutions across diverse commercial sectors. To accelerate our nationwide expansion, we are seeking sharp, self-motivated B2B appointment setters and business development representatives (BDRs) to initiate qualified conversations with hiring managers across the UK.
The Opportunity
This is a 100% remote, commission-only contractor role tailored for autonomous sales professionals who value uncapped earning potential and absolute autonomy over their working hours and methods.
Your primary objective is identifying high-intent target businesses, engaging senior decision-makers, and booking discovery meetings for our recruitment delivery team.
Experienced recruitment salespeople who prefer managing relationships end-to-end can quickly advance to our "Set-and-Close" track, securing terms, managing candidate introductions through to placement, and capturing substantially higher commission margins.
Core Responsibilities
• Prospect target UK businesses across key growth sectors using approved commercial databases and outreach tools.
• Execute multi-channel outreach across phone, email, and LinkedIn to connect directly with hiring managers and directors.
• Qualify immediate or recurring hiring requirements and book high-quality meetings for our team.
• (Optional Set-and-Close Track): Manage the commercial cycle end-to-end through to signed terms and fulfilled placements.
• Maintain accurate notes, pipeline tracking, and lead status updates within our CRM.
What We Look For
• Proven track record in B2B outbound telesales, lead qualification, appointment setting, or commercial recruitment.
• Sharp, persuasive spoken telephone manner paired with professional written outreach skills.
• Self-driven commercial acumen—comfortable operating independently as an active contractor.
• UK-based with working knowledge of telemarketing compliance regulations (CTPS, PECR), or a willingness to complete our briefing before starting.
What We Provide
• Uncapped commission structure with rapid, transparent payout terms upon invoice settlement.
• Absolute flexibility: determine your own working schedule, methods, and base location anywhere in the UK.
• Pre-launch briefing covering CRM workflows, sector targets, and regulatory standards.
• Access to vetted, CTPS-cleared data pipelines and approved prospecting infrastructure.
• Formal, transparent contractor agreement establishing commercial terms, commission tiers, and rights from day one.
Earnings Breakdown (Illustrative OTE)
As a self-employed commission role, your earnings scale directly with placement volume and fee values. Below is an entry baseline calculated using our lowest standard placement fee tier (12%) and a single entry-level placement per month at the National Living Wage (£26,436.80/year):
• Appointment Setting Track (30% Commission Share):
1 entry placement closed per month (~£3,172 total fee) = ~£951/month
• Set-and-Close Track (50% Commission Share):
1 entry placement closed per month (~£3,172 total fee) = ~£1,586/month
These benchmarks reflect a single, entry-tier placement. Placements for mid-to-senior roles, higher placement fee brackets, or higher monthly volume will significantly elevate your monthly take-home. Commission has no cap.
