£28,000 - £35,000 + uncapped commission
Are you a driven recruiter looking to build a specialist desk within one of Bristol's most exciting growth markets?
We're looking for a Recruitment Consultant to join our established Human Resources business, focusing exclusively on the Private Sector interim HR market. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of a dedicated specialist desk, develop long-term client relationships and play a key role in shaping the future of HR recruitment across Bristol and the surrounding region.
The Opportunity:
Following continued market growth, we're creating a dedicated HR temporary recruitment desk to enable greater specialisation and maximise opportunities within the thriving Private Sector HR market. This role offers the chance to build a focused desk with significant potential for growth, supported by an established brand and existing market presence.
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.
