Over the last nine years, we’ve been building something different at Higher Group.
A platform that sits at the centre of growth for search, staffing and recruitment firms globally.
We work directly with founders, investors and leadership teams on the decisions that actually move businesses, acquisitions, leadership changes, team builds, and scale-ups.
That focus has just delivered our strongest quarter to date.
The platform is built. The positioning is clear. The next phase is scale. And that’s where this comes in!
We’re looking for trainee recruiters who want to be a part of something VERY exciting.
The role:
You won’t be dropped into a generic desk.
You’ll operate within a clearly defined vertical, aligned to how your clients actually structure their businesses.
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.
From there, your role is simple:
- Work directly with founders, investors and senior leadership teams
- Deliver on senior mandates across leadership and team builds
- Build genuine long-term market authority (not transactional relationships)
The environment you step into:
This is not a volume-led, transactional recruitment floor. It’s a performance environment. You’ll be surrounded by people who are commercially sharp, well-networked, and serious about what they’re building. The leadership team has done this before, so expectations are high, and support is real.
What progression actually looks like here:
It’s not theoretical.
We’ve seen:
- Consultant → Associate Director in 18 months
- £28k earned in a single month
- £70k commission generated in a quarter

Where this leads...
Higher Group is building something with intent, a globally recognised recruitment platform with real enterprise value behind it.
For the right people, this isn’t just a new role.
It’s a shift in how you operate, what you’re exposed to, and what you ultimately build for yourself.
