Graduate Executive Search Consultant
Legal, Consultancy or AI Markets | London | High-Earning Career
Are you academically strong, commercially minded and confident speaking with ambitious, intelligent people?
Do you know how to build trust quickly, ask thoughtful questions and influence the way others think?
We are working with highly specialised Executive Search firms in London that are looking to hire exceptional graduates for roles focused on the Legal, Management Consultancy and Artificial Intelligence markets.
No previous recruitment experience is required. What matters is your intelligence, curiosity, resilience and ability to communicate with credibility.
What is Executive Search?
Executive Search is a research-led, relationship-focused career in which you help leading businesses identify and hire high-performing professionals.
Your client may be a law firm, consultancy, technology company or specialist AI business with a critical vacancy to fill. Your role is to identify talented people working in the market, engage them in intelligent conversations and understand whether a new opportunity could advance their career.
You will regularly speak with highly qualified, successful and in-demand professionals. They are not always actively looking for a new role, so success requires confidence, commercial awareness and the ability to build genuine trust.
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 Will Be Doing
You will:
- Research specialist markets, companies and senior professionals
- Build relationships with candidates and clients
- Conduct confident, intelligent and commercially focused conversations
- Understand what motivates high-performing professionals
- Present career opportunities in a credible and persuasive way
- Develop expertise in the Legal, Consultancy or AI market
- Build a valuable professional network from the beginning of your career
Who We Are Looking For
This opportunity would suit a graduate who is:
- Academically capable and intellectually curious
- Confident, articulate and personable
- Commercially ambitious and motivated by results
- Comfortable speaking with senior professionals
- Resilient, competitive and willing to learn
- Able to build rapport and influence others
- Interested in business, people and specialist markets
You may have studied Law, Business, Economics, Politics, Psychology, Computer Science, STEM, Humanities or another academically demanding subject.
Your degree discipline is less important than your attitude, communication skills and potential.
