The best recruiters don't succeed because they work harder than everyone else.
They succeed because they join the right platform.
We're working exclusively with an established executive search and specialist recruitment firm that has enjoyed a record-breaking start to the year and is now investing in the launch of a brand-new Technology practice.
This is an opportunity to join a business with an exceptional reputation, an outstanding client base and the infrastructure to help ambitious consultants bill quickly. If you're intelligent, commercially minded and motivated by earning serious money, this could be the career move you've been looking for.
The Opportunity
You'll join as a Trainee Recruitment Consultant, receiving structured training from experienced recruiters before building your own specialist market within Technology. Unlike many trainee roles, you won't be expected to do everything yourself. The business has invested heavily in AI, automation and outsourced research, removing much of the repetitive administration that traditionally consumes a recruiter's day. That means you'll spend more time speaking with clients, building relationships, winning business and making placements—the activities that generate commission. You'll also benefit from an established client platform, giving you access to high-quality assignments from day one.
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.
