Work For Us.
Why work for us?
Elix is a new brand – built around billers who want to earn well, be highly skilled, be rewarded for success, have rapid progression prospects and have arguably the best real commission package around.
Most commission packages for example, when broken down, won’t see you earn quite as much as you think on the surface, but ours like for like tends to be considerably better.
If you want to buy a house or perhaps several, if you want cars, freedom to travel where you want and have a very comfortable financial income then this is the place to be.
We even offer a crazy amount of holidays, early finish Fridays and an environment that balances skill and serious performers with decent people who you can feel comfortable being around.
Like what you read? Let’s have a conversation.
Our USP is that instead of being built for customers or clients first, we were built for our employees first.
Unlike most recruitment agencies our founder never intended to start an agency. When the time came to move on, they could not find a recruitment agency to work for that felt quite right.
What was wanted was somewhere that paid the best commission, provided the best in class tech to be able to do the job and treated people fairly and maturely without all the gimmicks and nonsense that is often found working elsewhere.
It sounds so simple, but everywhere seemed to say one thing and do something else. So it felt like everywhere was trying to stuff square pegs in round holes to make employees feel at home.
Why not setup somewhere new that actually works for the recruiter first so they can do what they do best?
And that’s how it all began…
What do we do?
We are a specialist recruiter permanent and contract recruiter for vacancies within the Engineering & Manufacturing, Energy, IT and Science sectors across the UK, US and Europe. Having invested in the latest systems, advertising, marketing, training and development we believe we have a number of advantages that enable our consultants to place more candidates than they would otherwise.
We are a specialist recruiter of mid to senior level permanent and contract vacancies in the Engineering, IT and Science sectors across the UK. Having invested in the latest systems, advertising, marketing, training and development we believe we have a number of advantages that enable our consultants to place more candidates than they would otherwise.
What do we offer?
Commission: Up to 30% (but that is paid on all of the billings if you invoice over £20,000 in a working month). Most companies claim they pay 30% but that is only on a fraction of the invoicing total. Not with us though. Compared to some competitors we pay twice as much to you on the same billings.
Progression: We have a meritocratic progression structure where it is possible to get promoted up to 3 times in a single calendar year, each coming with pay rises too. And the progression runs all the way to Director. Our top performer earned over £160,000 in 2024 as an example.
Training: We operate a mix of training sessions in bite sized formats both classroom style and desk style plus on the job training sessions delivered by different specialists who have been there and delivered. Plus if you want evidence of our training quality, every single consultant who has joined from another recruitment company has increased both their billings and earnings considerably since joining elix.
Other Benefits:
*Up to 30 days holiday before bank holidays
*Incentive Trips – in the UK and Abroad
*Lunch Clubs – Best Restaurants in Bristol & Bath
*Prizes to be won for 20k month performances
*Team Nights, Socials and Team Events
*Plus other benefits including free parking
Dependent on your experience and skillset, our salaries range. Though, it is fair to say we pay well. As for our commission, we pay 25% to 40%.
Our working week is Monday to Thursday 7:45am until 5pm and Fridays are 7:45am until 5pm for UK based recruiters. If you are working our German or US markets they will differ slightly to meet client hours.
We offer a structured progression plan with £2000 pay increases each time as well as routes into management and directorship.
Who do we want?
We want people who want to achieve something. We want people who want to better themselves, push themselves and make something of themselves.
If you are career minded, want to earn well and be able to have your career enable you to afford a great lifestyle then this is the place to be.
But we also we want decent characters. We have a good collaborative environment where knowledge is shared and trust is valued. It is important that common respect and human decency is understood as a basic expectation.
If this sounds like you, get in touch.
Who we want are good people, who take pride in their work and simply want the support, kit and development to do the job properly and excel at it.
All our equipment, software and infrastructure is best in class to help.
Our USP is that unlike most companies that are created to solve a customer problem, we are set up to be the type of company people like us would want to work for. So think of a great company that is setup to suit good people who want to do well, that’s us and our environment.
