Join the team

Orion is a great place to work! I have felt very comfortable and welcomed since the moment I joined. The training process was perfect for me, especially as someone who is new to recruitment. The culture of the place creates the right balance for everyday improvement whilst building great relationships with people.

Where do I start? - there are so many positives about Orion, from it's friendly and open feel to the great incentives and companywide benefits, that it is always a pleasure to talk to possible new consultants and support staff about us, and the type of career that is on offer here. Subsidised gym or private medical as well as our early 3pm finish on a Friday whilst working from home, make it an attractive proposition for so many looking for a career in recruitment. (did I mention the above industry average starting salaries and uncapped commission structure too as well as the learning and development for each employee and individual mapped out career paths?!

I have worked at Orion Electrotech for over 20 years and during that time I have been fully supported in my career. I have been actively encouraged to achieve more and progress within the company. After having my children I returned on a part-time basis with hours that worked for me and increased my hours as my children have grown, as a working mum this is invaluable. A few years ago I wanted to drop my hours slightly to allow me to work a few hours a week doing something that was close to my heart, this was never questioned and I will always be grateful I was able to do this. Over the years I have been to some amazing places and feel very lucky. Most recently I have become a Mental Health First Aider, as the well-being of staff is important to the company.

I am part of the resourcing team here at Orion and am loving my new role within the business. I have had support and encouragement from everyone at the company since starting my new career journey, which has been lovely to receive. Having so much support makes you really feel like they want you to succeed and develop. My team is great and has a wealth of knowledge to pass down which they are never too busy to share to help you on your recruitment journey.

Was a really quick and easy interview process updating me every step of the way and always keeping me in the loop. Having never done recruitment before the training provided was really good and brought me up to speed really quickly and was made to feel very confident within a very short period of time. Management and the people who work here are all welcoming and friendly from the beginning I was made to feel at home and really happy to be here.

Supportive, collaborative and agile business with a culture that feels like one big family! Engagement is sky high, people at all levels are valued and have a voice to express ideas and share opinions to consistently improve and evolve the business. Training and development is at the core of the business to empower people to realise their full potential and always keep learning. Senior leadership team are very approachable and supportive, they sit out in the open plan office with everyone else. Amazing incentives and rewards, you truly get out what you put in (I've been on incentives to Vegas, Dubai, St Anton & Chamonix to name a few!)

When I was looking for a new job, the most important thing for me was training and support, from the minute I had my first interview, I knew that Orion took this very seriously! The training that was provided was really helpful, but the thing that stood out the most to me was the ongoing support and guidance from everyone in the office. The dedicated Learning & Development team offered constant support, but also other individuals in the business, nothing was ever too much… if I needed help, if I had a quick question, someone was always available to help and guide me. I’m nearly 2 years in now and this continues, I’m always learning and with ongoing training being offered, every day’s a school day! It’s really helped me to grow my desk so far and get to where I am now

Working with Orion has enabled me to build strong relationships with both the team and our clients. When I started my recruitment career, I initially found it daunting, but Orion quickly eased my concerns. Joining a company that provides ample support, and training has set me up for success and helped dispel the stereotypical reputation that recruiters often have. It's all about finding quality candidates and continuously developing your skill set each day!

Jemma Bradshaw - Recruitment Consultant

I started at Orion in the Midlands team in August 2023. Since then I have learned a huge amount and grown in confidence and as a consultant.

I had some key goals and milestones I wanted to reach in terms of career development and progression and the team worked hard to accommodate. They provided with training sessions, regular one to ones, additional KPI’s and general support, which lead me to progress to Team Leader within the first 10x months of employment.

Throughout my career I have never worked with such a supportive and caring team. Everyone at Orion is always happy to help and shares the same core values that enable to hold each other accountable and achieve amazing goals together as a unit.

Moving here after being at my previous role for over 7 years was by far the best career move I have ever made, Safe to say Orion are stuck with me now!
