Graduate Executive Search Consultant

Location: London (New Office)
Salary: Competitive Basic + Uncapped Commission

Help Build Our First London Office

RSP Group is opening its first London office, and we're looking for two ambitious graduates to join us from day one.

This isn't joining a large recruitment company where you're one of hundreds of consultants.
It's an opportunity to become one of the founding members of a growing executive search business, work alongside experienced recruiters and help build something that could become really special over the coming years.

You'll join alongside another graduate, learn together and receive daily mentoring from experienced recruiters while working on live executive search assignments from your very first week.

About RSP Group

RSP Group is a specialist executive search firm focused exclusively on the US construction industry.
We partner with some of the largest contractors, developers and owners across North America, delivering retained and exclusive search assignments for senior leadership positions across Healthcare, Mission Critical, Advanced Manufacturing, Life Sciences and Commercial Construction.

Unlike many recruitment businesses, we focus on quality over quantity.
Our consultants build long-term relationships with clients and candidates rather than working in a KPI-driven environment.

Why Join Us?

One of the biggest challenges when starting in recruitment is having no clients and no live work.
At RSP Group, you'll be joining a business with an established client base, a strong pipeline of retained and exclusive assignments and genuine opportunities to learn from experienced recruiters.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
