“Build Your Recruitment Career with Unmatched Freedom and Earnings”

Walker & Sloan Self-Employed Partner Programme

Redefine How You Recruit

At Walker & Sloan, we believe experienced recruiters deserve more: more flexibility, more control, and significantly higher earnings.

Our Self-Employed Partner Programme empowers skilled recruiters across any sector to build a profitable recruitment business under a trusted, specialist brand – with cutting-edge technology, proven support, and an industry-leading commission structure.

If you’re ready to take charge of your career – whether you want to work from home, travel freely, or balance work with family life – this is your chance to recruit on your own terms.

Why Partner with Walker & Sloan

As a Self-Employed Partner, you’ll combine the independence of running your own desk with the strength of our established brand and systems. We provide everything you need to succeed – from automation tools and market mapping support to seamless back-office services – so you can focus entirely on delivering results.

With 60% of every fee paid directly to you, you’ll earn far more per placement than in a traditional agency environment.

Freedom to Fit Your Lifestyle

  • Work Your Way: Your hours, your location – whether that’s at home, a client site, or on the move.
  • No Pressure: Operate at your pace, ideal for parents returning to work, or those looking to scale strategically.
  • Scalable Model: Build your pipeline and even delegate tasks to approved substitutes to keep things running smoothly.
  • Remote-First: Benefit from a modern, digital-first workstyle with regular support calls and optional in-person meetups.

Earn What You’re Worth

With a 60% Partner Fee, your hard work is rewarded.
