Associate Consultant
My client is a specialist technology recruitment business in Brighton looking to hire three Associate Consultants.
I’ve recruited for this business for around 10 years and am now hiring trainees for managers who I originally placed with the company as graduates themselves. It’s a business with a strong track record of developing people from entry level into successful recruiters, managers and long-term careers.
They are looking for people who genuinely want to commit to something, develop expertise and become very good at what they do.
Who could suit this role?
Ideally, you’ll be a graduate with some previous sales or commercial experience, perhaps from:
- Telesales or a call centre
- Business development
- Customer-facing sales
- Hospitality or another demanding commercial environment
However, direct sales experience isn’t essential. My client is equally interested in people who can demonstrate drive, resilience and commitment in other ways. That might include:
- Working multiple jobs throughout university
- Strong academic achievement
- Competitive or high-level sporting performance
- Working demanding shifts in kitchens or hospitality
- Building a business, society or project alongside studying
- Evidence that you consistently commit to things and see them through
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
They are looking for people with strong communication skills, commercial aptitude and the motivation to build a career rather than simply find their next job.
The role
You’ll be trained to become a specialist recruiter working within cutting-edge technology markets. You’ll learn how to:
- Identify and approach specialist technology professionals
- Research companies and emerging technology markets
- Build long-term relationships with candidates and clients
- Manage recruitment processes from initial conversation through to placement
- Develop commercial and sales skills
- Become an expert within a specialist technology niche
Recruitment can be challenging and competitive. It requires resilience, curiosity and the ability to keep improving.
For the right person, however, it can provide significant autonomy, constant challenge, strong career progression and excellent earning potential.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
This is particularly suited to someone who likes the idea of spending several years becoming genuinely excellent at something and being rewarded as their expertise develops.
What they are looking for
- Graduate calibre
- Strong communication skills
- Commercial aptitude
- Resilience and self-motivation
- Evidence of commitment and achievement
- Comfortable speaking to new people
- Ambitious without expecting instant success
- Interested in building a long-term professional career
Previous recruitment experience is not required.
