Trainee Recruitment Consultant - International

Want a career where your progression is decided by your work ethic and results, not your CV? A Sunday Times Best Places to Work (three years running) and FT 1000 fastest-growing technology recruitment consultancy is hiring trainees for its City of London headquarters.

Founded in 2014, the business now has 90+ people across London, Austin and Kuala Lumpur and a clear goal: to become the globally recognised leader in network engineering recruitment. Every consultant joins a specialist team – connectivity, critical infrastructure, enterprise networks, AI and data centres, cyber security or contract – so you build real expertise and a market of your own.

This is a true trainee position and everyone in the business started in the same place. Think of your first two years like a graduate scheme. Your first six months are about learning your market and the fundamentals of recruitment and sales. From six to twelve months, you develop into a 360 recruiter, working across both candidates and clients. From month twelve onwards, you'll build your own network and establish yourself as a specialist in your niche.

Day to day, you'll be headhunting network and infrastructure professionals, building relationships with hiring managers, winning new business and managing the process from first call to placement.
