Senior Recruitment Consultant | European Markets (DACH)

Build a market. Shape the future. Grow your career.
Powered by legacy. Built on innovation.

At JAM, we help organisations across energy and defence solve complex workforce challenges.

For more than 25 years, we've partnered with businesses shaping the future, connecting exceptional people with organisations where they can make a lasting impact. Our approach is consultative, people-centred and built on long-term relationships, combining specialist expertise with innovative talent solutions.

Now we're looking ahead.

As we continue to grow our European offering, we're looking for an experienced Senior Recruitment Consultant to help establish and develop our presence across the DACH region.

This isn't about inheriting someone else's desk.
It's about building your own market, backed by an established brand, experienced leadership team and the freedom to shape your success.

The opportunity

Whether you've built your career in engineering, technology or another specialist market, you'll already know that great recruitment is about relationships.

The same principles that have made you successful in the UK apply across Europe. Building trusted partnerships. Understanding your clients' challenges. Identifying exceptional talent. Creating opportunities that deliver long-term value.

You'll take ownership of your own specialist market, developing new client relationships while building a network of highly skilled professionals across the DACH region. Working as part of our growing European team, you'll play a key role in shaping the next chapter of JAM's growth.

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.
