55,000+ OTE IN YOUR FIRST YEAR | TRAINEE RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT | NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED
Most graduates and early-career professionals are told to expect years of hard work before seeing the rewards.
This isn't one of those opportunities.
We're looking for six ambitious individuals to join a market-leading legal recruitment firm, where your progression is determined by your performance, not your time served. With a £28,000 starting salary, realistic first-year earnings of £55,000+, and top performers already earning over £70,000 in year one, this is an opportunity for people who want more from their career.
THE COMPANY – TRAINEE RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT
Established in 2007 by two industry-leading recruiters with over 35 years of combined experience, this specialist legal recruitment business partners with some of the world's most prestigious law firms, global banks, corporates and financial institutions.
The business is continuing to grow internationally, with plans to launch a US office within the next two years, creating exciting opportunities for ambitious individuals looking to build a global career.
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.
Unlike many recruitment firms, you'll receive direct training and mentorship from the founders themselves, giving you access to knowledge and expertise that has built a highly successful business.
