Graduate Recruitment Consultant

Overview

Job Description

Looking to join a business with a goal of becoming a billion dollar business?

Keen to visit Los Angeles and call it ‘work’?

Want a career with clear direction, serious earning potential, and global opportunity?

This is your chance to join a high-growth, retained recruitment business built to create elite recruiters, long-term careers, and life-changing wealth.

The Opportunity…

This business operates at the cutting edge of AI, robotics, aerospace, clean energy, and advanced engineering, partnering with some of the most innovative companies in the world.

The model is 100% retained and relationship-led, with deep, embedded client partnerships across the UK and US. Many of these are long-term projects delivering sustained, high-volume hiring. This means the work is real, the demand is already there, and success is driven by delivery and relationships rather than constant cold business development.

The long-term vision is bold: to scale to a billion-pound valuation while building long-term wealth for the people who help make it happen.

The Flight Path – Your Career, Clearly Mapped…

Your career follows a clearly defined Flight Path designed to give every team member direction, structure, and momentum from day one.

The framework is transparent and consistent across the business, with clear expectations at every level. Progression is based on performance, not time served, and there is no ceiling on what you can achieve.

High performers can progress rapidly through consultant levels, specialise, move into leadership, or even reach directorship as an individual contributor.

What You’ll Earn…

Year one:

• £25–27K basic salary

• £70–80K+ realistic OTE

• Monthly commission paid quickly and transparently

Longer term:

• Clear billing targets tied directly to promotion

• Commission scaling up to 40 percent

• Opportunity to qualify for an EMI share scheme focused on long-term wealth creation

This is a business designed to create top performers and top earners, not short-term wins.

The Role…

From day one, you will work on live, retained recruitment projects across high-growth tech markets.

You will:

• Deliver against active, high-volume hiring needs

• Build long-term relationships with candidates and hiring managers

• Sit in on client meetings and hiring strategy discussions

• Learn full lifecycle recruitment, starting in a delivery-focused role

• Take on more commercial responsibility as you develop

Training and Development...

You will receive hands-on, on-desk training from senior consultants and leadership.

This includes:

• Daily sourcing and candidate management coaching

• Live exposure to client calls and embedded hiring projects

• Continuous feedback and structured development

• Clear targets with support at every stage of your progression

Culture and Environment…

This is a high-performance, team-first environment where standards are high but support is constant.

You can expect:

• Daily exposure to leadership

• A collaborative, delivery-first culture rather than KPI-heavy micromanagement

• A strong focus on health, wellbeing, and sustainable performance

• Regular socials, monthly incentives, and international trips

• An office-based culture in Manchester with flexibility when needed

Who We’re Looking For…

This role is ideal for graduates or early-career professionals who want to build something long-term.

We’re particularly interested in people who are:

• Driven, competitive, and ambitious

• Comfortable in a fast-paced, performance-led environment

• Strong communicators who enjoy building relationships

• Intelligent, curious, and problem-solving focused

• Motivated by progression, earnings, and impact

If you’re looking for a recruitment career where the work is meaningful, the earning potential is real, and the growth path is clearly defined, this is an outstanding opportunity to get in early and grow with the business.
