Trainee Recruitment Consultant
£28K Base + £50K OTE | International Recruitment Firm | Early Finish Fridays
Are you a confident, ambitious graduate who wants more than a standard 9–5?
Maybe you’ve already got some sales experience and know you’re competitive, driven and motivated by earning potential. Either way, if you’re someone who wants to build a career, progress quickly and see your hard work rewarded, this could be a great opportunity for you.
Our client is a growing recruitment firm with an established presence across the UK and Europe. They specialise in mid-to-senior level recruitment across Communications, Research & Insights, and Policy & Public Affairs, working with some seriously impressive organisations, from multinational corporations and leading charities to major PR consultancies and influential trade associations.
Why Recruitment?
Recruitment is fast-paced, commercial and people-focused. You’ll be speaking to senior professionals, working with impressive businesses and building your own network from day one.
You’ll also get the training and support to become a specialist in your market, with a clear opportunity to progress into a senior consultant and eventually leadership position.
This is not a role for someone who wants to sit back and wait for opportunities to come to them. It’s for people who are confident picking up the phone, building relationships, asking questions and going after results.
What’s in it for you?
- £28K base salary + £50K OTE
- Strong commission structure – the more you achieve, the more you earn
- Annual holiday target – last year’s team trip was to Dubai
- Early finish Fridays
- Deal celebrations and brunches
- Monthly lunch clubs and team socials
- Accelerated training and development programme
- Opportunity to become a true specialist and market expert
- Clear progression opportunities as the business continues to grow
What will you actually be doing?
From day one, you’ll be getting involved in the full recruitment process and learning how to build your own desk.
You’ll be:
- Finding and engaging top talent through advertising, networking and market research
- Working alongside experienced consultants and learning how to run successful searches
- Researching markets and building longlists of relevant candidates
- Speaking with senior professionals and building your network
- Attending client meetings and developing commercial relationships
- Building your personal brand within your specialist market
- Keeping up with current affairs and market trends to become a credible industry expert
- Managing relationships with both candidates and clients
Who are they looking for?
You don’t need recruitment experience. They’re looking for personality, ambition and potential.
You could be a recent graduate or have some sales experience already, but you’ll need to be:
- Confident – comfortable speaking to new people and putting yourself out there
- Ambitious – you want to progress and earn well
- Competitive – you enjoy having something to work towards
- Resilient – you can handle setbacks without losing momentum
- Curious – genuinely interested in people, businesses and current affairs
- Commercially minded – you understand the importance of building relationships and delivering results
- A strong communicator – confident on the phone and professional in writing
If you’re ambitious, confident and want a career where your results directly influence your progression and earning potential, this is one worth exploring.
