If you want a graduate role where your work actually matters, keep reading.
Imperium Global is a specialist executive search firm operating in industries that quite literally shape the world around us: construction, infrastructure, renewable energy, advanced tech, and data centres. We specialise in the US, working with senior leaders and companies generating billions in revenue, helping them hire the people who drive major projects forward. We're looking for driven, personable graduates (max 2 years from graduation) to join us as Executive Search Consultants and shape the future of Imperium.
Why this is different from most graduate roles
- You’re speaking with decision-makers from day one.
- No endless admin or coffee-run stereotypes. You’ll work directly with founders, directors, and C-suite candidates across the US.
- You can progress ridiculously fast. Everyone at Imperium started at entry level. Many consultants become managers within a year, and the path to Managing Director is genuinely achievable in under five years for top performers.
- The earning potential is real. Commission goes up to 60% (compared to the industry standard of 30%), and consultants often earn £50k+ in a single month. Some of them are in their first full year in the job.
- You’ll build commercial skills most grads don’t get for years. Negotiation, sales strategy, relationship building, interviewing senior leaders, and understanding how major businesses operate globally.
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.
What you’ll actually do
- Build relationships with new clients in your specialist market, identifying opportunities, approaching businesses, and developing long-term partnerships.
- Headhunt and interview senior candidates to guide them through career moves.
- Understand client needs and provide tailored executive search solutions while managing every step of the hiring process, from candidate interviews to post-hire follow-ups.
- Negotiate contracts and commercial terms.
- Become an expert in a niche industry - within commercial construction, data centres, or infrastructure, you’ll develop deep market knowledge that makes you valuable fast.
Training and support
Imperium Global runs a structured internal academy led by experienced learning and development specialists. Within six weeks, you’ll be trained to operate as a full 360 consultant, meaning you can win business and place candidates independently. It doesn't stop there - we have an extensive Experienced Sales and Management Training courses for you to keep upskilling your performance.
