About Morson
Founded in 1969, Morson Group has grown into a £1.3bn global recruitment business with offices across the UK and internationally. We’re proud to be recognised as one of the UK’s leading recruitment organisations, offering long-term career opportunities, strong development pathways, and a collaborative culture.
Our Corporate Functions division – recently awarded ‘Team of the Year’ – is continuing to expand, with Finance identified as a key strategic growth area.
Morson is a well-established and trusted name within the technical recruitment market, with a strong presence in the North and an established Finance team. This is an exciting opportunity to help develop that offering further, grow your own market and play a key role in our continued expansion within Finance and Professional Services.
The Role
We’re looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant, ideally at Senior Consultant or Principal Consultant level, to join our growing Finance recruitment team, based from our Salford HQ.
You’ll be joining at an exciting stage of growth, with the opportunity to take ownership of a specialist Finance market, develop your own client portfolio and build long-term relationships across the sector.
This role is ideal for someone who wants more than simply managing an existing desk – someone who wants the autonomy to influence how their market develops, build relationships, identify new opportunities and play a key role in growing our Finance offering.
You’ll have the backing, stability and reputation of an established global recruitment business, combined with the freedom and ownership to develop your own market and make a real impact.
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.
