Trainee Recruitment Consultant
East Midlands / Castle Donington
Competitive basic + uncapped commission
Looking to start your career in recruitment?
We're looking for an ambitious, confident and commercially minded Graduate / Trainee Recruitment Consultant to join our established team at SF Partners. You don't need recruitment experience. We're much more interested in your attitude, personality and drive to succeed.
Equally, if you've already gained experience in sales, business development or account management and are looking for a career where you can use those skills with greater earning potential and progression, we'd definitely like to hear from you.
You'll be working alongside experienced recruiters, learning how to build relationships with clients and candidates, develop your own market and ultimately run your own recruitment desk.
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 be doing:
- Speaking with candidates and understanding their career plans
- Building relationships with new and existing clients
- Sourcing candidates through LinkedIn, job boards and our database
- Managing interviews, offers and recruitment processes
- Developing your own network and client base
- Working towards clear targets with plenty of support along the way
What we're looking for:
Someone confident, personable and comfortable picking up the phone. You'll need to be ambitious, resilient and motivated by progression and earning potential.
You might be a recent graduate, working in sales or account management, or simply in a customer-facing role where you've developed strong relationship-building and communication skills.
Previous recruitment experience isn't essential - we can teach recruitment. We're looking for the right person and attitude.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
What's on offer?
You'll join an established business and team with genuine client relationships, live opportunities and experienced people around you to learn from.
There's a clear route from Trainee Consultant → Recruitment Consultant → Senior Consultant and beyond, alongside uncapped commission and the opportunity to significantly increase your earnings as you progress.
If you're ambitious, good with people and looking for a career where your progression and earnings are genuinely in your own hands, I'd love to hear from you.
