LONDON GRADUATES - START YOUR CAREER AT THE TOP

Just finished university and ready to build something bigger than an average 9-5?

We're expanding our London team and we're looking for driven graduates who want more - more responsibility, more progression, and more earning potential.

This isn't a "gap year" job.

It's a performance-driven career path designed for ambitious individuals who want to progress fast and be rewarded properly for their effort.

If you're competitive, resilient, and motivated by success, keep reading.

The Role: Trainee Education Recruitment Consultant

Based in London, you'll step into a fast-moving sales environment where your results directly shape your income and progression.

You'll work with schools across London and the surrounding areas, helping them secure outstanding teachers and support staff who make a real difference in classrooms every day.

From day one, you'll be building your own client base, developing relationships, and generating revenue - supported by experienced managers who know how to turn graduates into top performers.

What You'll Be Doing

• Proactively sourcing and headhunting high-quality education professionals
• Interviewing and assessing candidates
• Building long-term partnerships with schools
• Negotiating fees and closing placements

Working towards clear targets with uncapped commission

As your desk grows, so does your earning potential. There is no earnings ceiling - your output determines your reward.

Industry-Leading Graduate Training

No recruitment background? No problem.

• Advanced sourcing and headhunting techniques
• Sales psychology and high-level negotiation skills
• Client development and revenue growth strategies
• Performance mindset and resilience coaching
• Clear career mapping and promotion planning

You won't be left to "figure it out." You'll be developed into a high biller with a long-term career plan.

What You'll Get

• £32,000 starting salary
• Uncapped commission (Year 1 OTE £35,000-£42,000+)
• Fast-track progression based on performance, not time served
• Regular team incentives, rewards, and social events
• A high-energy, ambitious team culture
• Generous annual leave and wellbeing support

Who This Suits

• Are competitive - whether in sport, academics, or part-time work
• Thrive in fast-paced, target-driven environments
• Are financially motivated and career-focused
• Communicate confidently and build rapport easily
• Hold a full UK driving licence (or have a test booked)

Most importantly, you must be prepared to work hard, push beyond your comfort zone, and commit to becoming exceptional.
