Are you a motivated graduate or a professional with a background in sales looking for a high-earning, fast-paced career? Indeed, Recruitment People is currently seeking an ambitious Trainee Recruitment Consultant to join our established team at 1 Poultry, London (EC2R 8EJ). This entry-level position offers a competitive £28,000 basic salary with an uncapped commission structure, leading to an On-Target Earnings (OTE) of £50,000 – £60,000 in your first year.

About the Opportunity

We specialize in high-value markets and have a proven track record of success. Furthermore, we offer a supportive environment that is ambitious but not overly corporate.

Consequently, this is not a “sink or swim” environment; we provide a clear progression path designed to help you succeed and grow within the business.

In this role, you will learn the mechanics of the recruitment industry from the ground up. For instance, your core responsibilities will include:

• Sourcing Talent: You will learn to source and headhunt candidates for high-value Legal and Finance roles.

• Process Management: You will manage job advertisements, screen applicants, and coordinate interview processes.

• Communication: You will speak with candidates and clients daily to build long-term relationships within your market.

• Negotiation: You will handle offer negotiations and close deals.

• Consultation: You will learn the full recruitment lifecycle from our most experienced consultants.

Training & Professional Progression

We believe in continuous development. Therefore, we provide a robust support system:

• Structured Program: You will complete an 8-week structured training programme.

• Mentorship: You will have a dedicated mentor throughout your first 12 months on the job.

• Coaching: You will receive ongoing coaching from our in-house Learning and Development team.

• Promotion Criteria: We provide clear targets and promotion criteria so you always know how to reach the next level.

What’s on Offer

We ensure our team is well-rewarded for their performance. Specifically, our benefits package includes:

• Financial Rewards: A £28,000 basic salary plus uncapped commission from day one.

• Incentives: Enjoy trips abroad, team incentives, and exclusive “lunch clubs.”

• Social Culture: We host regular social events and company events to maintain a strong team culture.

• Future Security: We offer a company pension and an employee mentoring programme.

• Environment: You will work under a supportive, down-to-earth leadership team in a central London location.

What We Are Looking For

We want to meet individuals who are ready to work hard and reap the rewards. Ideally, you possess:

• Education: A degree-level education or relevant professional/sales experience.

• Mindset: A motivated, career-driven mindset with a high level of resilience.

• Coachability: You are coachable and open to receiving constructive feedback.

• Competitive Edge: You are comfortable working in a target-driven environment. Additionally, a high-level sporting background is a bonus but is not essential.
