Are you a highly motivated and results-driven individual? Do you have a passion for building relationships, a hunger to succeed, and the drive to be rewarded for your hard work? We are CSG Talent. We are independent, agile, and people-centric, and due to continued success and growth, we are recruiting for an Associate Recruitment Consultant to join our specialised training programme this October.
📍 Location: Horsforth, Leeds
📅 Start date: October 2026
The Recruitment Academy is like no other Executive Search training programme; you will be trained, coached, supported and developed over a 3-6 month period by our Talent & Development Partner.
You will learn theory and practical based skills on headhunting, advertising, sales, negotiating, pitching and account management, which will result in placing high level candidates into very senior jobs across the world. Joining at the same time as other like-minded individuals starting their recruitment careers, you will be part of a tight-knit team and will be involved in group discussions, role play and team exercises - just some of the different ways you'll learn!
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.
