Good at sales and looking for a career with more ownership, progression and earning potential?

Chroma Recruitment is growing and we're looking for commercially driven people who want to build a career in recruitment.

You don't need previous recruitment experience. You may already be working in sales, business development, account management, estate agency or another target-driven role, or be a graduate with the confidence and ambition to build a commercial career.

You'll join a structured 12-week induction programme covering recruitment, sales, market insight, systems and the tools you'll use every day, with support from experienced recruiters across Engineering, Tech & Digital and Care.

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.
