Senior Recruitment Consultant - London
We're looking for a Senior Recruitment Consultant to join our established team in our London office in Cornhill, recruiting predominantly across the rail and transport sector.
About the Role
You don't need to be a rail recruitment specialist to be successful in this role. If you have a strong background in areas such as construction, engineering, infrastructure, industrial, utilities or other blue-collar markets, we'd be happy to teach you the rail-specific knowledge you need to succeed.
This is a 360 recruitment role, with the advantage of joining a market-leading business with established client relationships, preferred supplier agreements and a strong reputation within the industry.
Key Responsibilities
- Focus on building relationships, identifying new opportunities within warm accounts and delivering outstanding recruitment solutions to both clients and candidates.
- Cover a mix of contract and permanent recruitment, predominantly across blue-collar roles but also with opportunities to recruit into white-collar positions.
What We're Looking For
- An experienced 360 Recruitment Consultant, ideally with a background in blue-collar, technical or skilled recruitment.
- Experience recruiting within sectors such as construction, engineering, infrastructure, industrial, utilities, transport or rail.
- Comfortable managing the full recruitment lifecycle – from business development and winning vacancies through to candidate sourcing, interviewing, offer management and aftercare.
- A recruiter who enjoys building long-term client and candidate relationships rather than simply filling vacancies.
- Someone commercially minded, resilient and motivated by developing accounts and growing their desk.
- A Delivery Consultant with rail recruitment experience who is ready to step into a 360 role would also be considered.
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.

Rail experience is advantageous, but not essential. Knowledge of Sentinel and London Underground recruitment would be a real bonus, but we can provide the training and support needed to get you up to speed with the specific requirements of the rail market. What matters most is that you understand recruitment, know how to build relationships and have the drive to succeed in a busy, established environment.

- Competitive salary with a quarterly bonus scheme.

- Health and wellbeing support, including confidential counselling services and wellbeing apps.
- Access to our renowned meritocracy incentive scheme, with previous destinations including Mexico, Barbados, Cuba and Dubai.


Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll be joining an established, supportive team within one of the UK's leading technical recruitment businesses. With long-standing client relationships, preferred supplier agreements and a strong pipeline of work, you won't be starting from scratch.
Instead, you'll have the opportunity to use the recruitment skills you've already built, develop your knowledge of the rail market and grow an established desk – without the pressure of building a completely cold market from day one.
If you're an experienced blue-collar or technical recruiter looking for your next challenge and are interested in developing your career within the rail and infrastructure sector, we'd love to hear from you.
