Love recruitment but hate cold sales?
Want to build a career in recruitment without spending your day chasing clients and hitting sales targets?
We’re looking for a Recruitment Resourcer to join our growing Construction team in Leeds, helping us source and support great people across some of the UK’s busiest construction projects.
This is a fast-paced, people-focused role where no two days are ever the same. One minute you’ll be speaking to a Site Manager needing urgent cover for Monday morning, the next you’ll be tracking down a Finishing Manager for a high-profile fit-out project.
If you enjoy being busy, speaking to people, solving problems, and finding candidates others can’t - you’ll fit right in.
What’s in it for you?
- £27,500+ basic salary
- Realistic OTE £32k–£36k
- Monday to Friday, 8am–5pm
- Leeds city-centre office
- No sales targets or cold business development
- Structured training and career progression
- Work alongside an experienced, supportive team
- Perkbox discounts & employee benefits
- European city break incentives
- A genuinely people-first culture. At Thorn Baker, we’re proud to be: People-Driven. Solution-Focused. Positive-Minded.
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.
