Ready to level up in a role where performance is recognised, relationships matter, and you can genuinely build a market?
The OP Group is a specialist executive search firm working across the Technology, Renewable Energy and Engineering landscapes in Europe and North America. We’re scaling our US-focused capability and are looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant (2+ years) to join us in London—someone who wants more than “another desk” and is competitive and hungry to become a true expert in a niche market.
You’ll join a high-performing, supportive team with a proven platform, strong peer collaboration, and the autonomy to drive outcomes.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Own and deliver searches end-to-end (or close to it), partnering with senior colleagues where needed
- Build and manage a high-quality pipeline engaging senior candidates with credibility and pace
- Develop client relationships & Prospects/BD
- Run structured, 360 consultative processes: briefing, sourcing strategy, assessment, shortlisting, interview management, offer negotiation, and closing
- Operate in a niche vertical, becoming known for your market knowledge and network
- Track performance through meaningful ratios (not vanity metrics) and continuously improve your approach
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 Bring
- 2+ years’ recruitment experience (contingency experienced is acceptable and executive search exposure a plus)
- Exceptional communication — clear, persuasive, commercially confident
- Relationship-first mindset — you play the long game and build trust fast
- High standards and real ambition — you want to win, learn, and progress
- Entrepreneurial drive — you take ownership, spot opportunities, and execute
- Resilience and professionalism — calm, consistent, and focused under pressure
- Degree-level education (preferred)

The Reality Check
Executive search is demanding, relationship-intensive, and requires mental toughness. But if you’re the kind of person who thrives on challenge and wants to build a serious career, it’s one of the most rewarding paths in recruitment—professionally and financially.
