Our London team is continuing to grow, and we're looking for ambitious individuals who want to learn, develop and build a long-term career within recruitment.
Whether you're coming from sales, customer service, hospitality, sport, or another competitive environment, we're interested in people with the right attitude and the drive to succeed.
The Role
As a Trainee Recruitment Consultant, you'll learn how to operate across both the candidate and client sides of the recruitment process.
You'll develop your commercial and communication skills while learning how to identify great candidates, build professional relationships, win new business and successfully deliver recruitment solutions.
You'll be given the training and support needed to develop your own specialist market, with experienced leaders helping you build the skills required to progress into a successful Recruitment Consultant and, ultimately, a leadership position.
Your development will be driven by a combination of structured training, hands-on experience, coaching and your own performance.
What You'll Be Doing
- Build and develop relationships with candidates and clients
- Source and approach potential candidates using networking, headhunting, referrals and online platforms
- Speak with candidates to understand their experience, motivations and career goals
- Identify suitable candidates for live vacancies
- Support the recruitment process from initial conversation through to successful placement
- Learn how to develop new business and identify potential clients
- Build your own network within your chosen technology market
- Develop a strong understanding of your specialist sector and its talent landscape
- Negotiate and close opportunities with the support of experienced consultants
- Work towards individual and team targets
- Take ownership of your personal development and progression
Who We're Looking For
We're more interested in your potential and attitude than having a perfect CV.

We're looking for someone who:
- Is ambitious and motivated by achieving results

- Takes feedback positively and is willing to learn
- Has a strong work ethic and takes ownership of their performance
- Is confident, enthusiastic and commercially minded
- Wants to develop a long-term career in recruitment and sales
- Can work from our London office five days per week
Previous experience in sales, business development, recruitment, customer service, sport or another performance-driven environment is advantageous, but it isn't essential.
What You'll Get
- Competitive base salary with uncapped commission
- Industry-leading recruitment and sales training
- Structured onboarding programme
- Ongoing coaching, mentorship and development
- A clear career path from Trainee Consultant through to Consultant, Senior Consultant and Leadership positions
- Private healthcare
- Company pension scheme
