Contract Scotland
Contract Scotland is a recruitment consultancy that was established to redefine recruitment and set a new standard, to challenge how the recruitment industry works.
We don’t work to a traditional target and commission model, which gives us the unique ability to provide our customers with a transparent recruitment service that delivers true value and lasting impact to their lives and businesses.
With a strong pipeline of work/many long-term relationships, and to continue delivering the highest quality recruitment within our sector, we need to add to our existing team.
About the Role
As a recruitment consultant, you’ll ultimately be responsible for finding and placing ‘great fit’ candidates into the right positions, with a wide range of employers.
- Manage the end-to-end hiring process, including sourcing and engaging with candidates, assessing CV’s, conducting & organising interviews, negotiating offers, and onboarding/providing aftercare.
- Build strong relationships with clients to understand their hiring needs and with candidates to guide them through career opportunities.
What We Offer
- A thorough and detailed training plan (our ‘Recruitment Academy’), delivered by a group with an average of 15 years of experience in construction & engineering recruitment.
- A winning formula for recruitment (honed over 35+ years), giving you all the structure and tools to be successful.
- Access to a large range of businesses who we’ve supported over many years, with existing relationships and commercial agreements in place, as well as the chance to introduce our approach to new customers.
- The best of recruitment technology & AI to support your hard work, allowing you to work as effectively as possible, reach/identify & assess candidates, communicate with your network, and turbocharge your marketing.
- Ongoing support & encouragement from the team around you, to make you the best recruiter you can be, and achieve your longer term ambitions.
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.

What We're Looking For
Experience/Personality
- We don’t need you to have existing experience in recruitment, although we’d be happy to see any that you do have.
- Experience in some kind of sales/customer service is always useful, especially if it’s in business-to-business relationships.
- What’s most important to us right now, is that you bring:
- Energy & enthusiasm – this goes a long way in our team. We want people who can help keep team morale & momentum high, even during challenging days, who are prepared & ready to get stuck in.
- Adaptability/interested in change – this comes in two forms. Often, we pitch in to help each other out during busy spells, so we want people who are prepared to roll with that where needed. Technology & AI is also changing how recruitment works, and how we as individuals approach it. That’s all for the better, but you need to be keen & interested to adopt new technology as it arrives.
- Ambition - we want you to be driven to be the best at what you do.
- Persuasive - we’re looking for people who can demonstrate how their likeability/influence will lead to success & strong relationships.
