Join a Team That Puts People First
At Opus People Solutions, we're passionate about helping organisations find exceptional talent. As a trusted recruitment partner across both the public and private sectors, we deliver executive search, leadership recruitment and workforce solutions that make a real difference.
We're looking for an Executive Researcher to join our close-knit and highly supportive team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with recruitment experience, either from an agency or internal recruitment background, who wants to play a key role in delivering high-quality recruitment campaigns at a senior level.
About the Role
As an Executive Researcher, you will support recruitment projects across a diverse range of sectors and disciplines, identifying and engaging high-calibre candidates for senior leadership and specialist appointments. Working closely with our consultants and clients, you'll be responsible for market mapping, candidate generation, research projects, talent engagement and supporting outstanding recruitment processes from start to finish.
This is a fully remote position, offering the opportunity to work with organisations across the UK while being part of a collaborative and ambitious team.
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 Be Doing
- Researching and identifying senior-level and specialist talent across public and private sector markets.
- Conducting market mapping and talent intelligence projects.
- Engaging with passive and active candidates through a variety of channels.
- Supporting executive search and recruitment campaigns from briefing through to appointment.
- Building and maintaining talent pools and candidate networks.
- Producing high-quality candidate reports and market insights.
- Delivering an exceptional candidate and client experience throughout the recruitment journey.
- Working collaboratively with colleagues to ensure every assignment is delivered to the highest standard.
What We're Looking For
We're less interested in where you've worked and more interested in who you are. You'll ideally have:
- Recruitment experience from either an agency or in-house environment.
- Strong research, communication and organisational skills.
- The confidence to build relationships with candidates and stakeholders.
- A proactive approach and a genuine desire to deliver excellent service.
- Attention to detail and pride in producing high-quality work.
- A passion for recruitment and helping organisations attract outstanding talent.
- Most importantly, you'll be someone who shares our values and culture. We're looking for a team player who enjoys collaboration, supports colleagues, embraces new ideas and genuinely cares about delivering the best possible outcomes for clients and candidates.
