Posted 1 day ago by Rule Recruitment

Does the idea of joining a fast-growing start-up founded by two exceptionally successful recruitment leaders excite you?

Are you looking for a role where you can build your own career path, develop elite skills, and truly influence the direction of the business?

If you’re driven, curious, and ready to make an impact, this is the opportunity for you.

The Company – Trainee Recruitment Consultant

This start-up is led by two high-achieving recruiters with 20+ years of combined success.

Both founders were top performers in their previous company, helping build high-performing teams and driving major growth.

Their vision?

To create an autonomous, high-performance business where people are trusted, supported, and able to enjoy a genuine work–life balance.

You’ll focus on placing marketing and communications professionals into tech and finance, two of the fastest-growing sectors.

As the business scales, you’ll have the chance to either take ownership of an existing division or build your own vertical from scratch.

If you value trust, transparency, collaboration, and the freedom to shape your future, this is the environment where you’ll thrive.

What You’ll Gain – Trainee Recruitment Consultant

  • £27k–£30k starting salary, increasing with each promotion
  • Excellent commission structure with realistic earnings of:
  • £50k+ in year one
  • £75k+ in year two
  • £90k+ in year three
  • Direct, hands-on mentorship from the two founders
  • Flexible working: 2 days WFH per week + option to work abroad after probation
  • Clear progression to Division Director where you shape strategy and build your own team
  • Relaxed, dress-down culture, with 3 office dogs
  • This is a unique chance to influence a business from the ground up while building a high-earning, long-term career.

The Role – Trainee Recruitment Consultant

In this role, you’ll quickly gain responsibility and autonomy as you:

Meet clients and candidates to build strong, trusted relationships

Source high-quality candidates through LinkedIn research and headhunting

Manage the full recruitment lifecycle: interviews, feedback, and offer negotiation

Produce reports and insights for your clients

Build your online brand and create valuable, relevant content for your network

This is a role where your curiosity, initiative, and drive directly impact your success.

The Ideal Candidate – Trainee Recruitment Consultant

  • You’ll thrive here if you are:
  • Curious about people, their experience, and how organisations operate
  • Experienced in a commercial environment and understand client relationships
  • Ambitious, motivated, and committed to building a long-term career
  • Confident communicating across all levels, both face-to-face and over the phone
  • Independent and self-directed—you know what you want and where you want to be in 5 years
  • If you want a role that gives you ownership, growth, and influence, this opportunity is for you.
