At Instant Connections, we believe the best recruitment starts with genuine human connection. As specialists in marketing and events recruitment, our focus is on identifying potential, building relationships, and helping ambitious people discover opportunities where they can thrive. As demand for our clients continues to grow, we are expanding our Recruitment team and looking for someone who wants to build a career centred around people.
No previous recruitment experience is required. We provide structured training from day one, giving you the skills and support needed to develop into a confident talent acquisition professional.
About the Opportunity
Unlike traditional recruitment, this is a highly interactive and people-focused environment. You will spend your time engaging with prospective candidates in person, attending marketing campaigns and events, introducing people to career opportunities, and identifying individuals whose personality and ambitions align with our clients and company culture.
Every day presents new conversations, new environments, and new opportunities to develop your confidence and communication skills.
This is ideal for someone who enjoys meeting new people, thrives in social settings, and prefers active, face-to-face interaction over repetitive office-based work.
Your Development Journey
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.
