Job description

Looking for a career in sales where your earning potential and progression are genuinely in your hands?

Simpson Judge is growing, and we're looking for ambitious sales professionals to join us as Trainee Recruitment Consultants.

You don't need recruitment experience; we'll teach you that. What we're looking for is someone who already knows how to build relationships, enjoys speaking to people and has a passion for sales.

You'll join an established 360 recruitment desk with existing client relationships, signed agreements and live vacancies, meaning you'll be learning while working on genuine opportunities from day one rather than building everything from scratch.

Through structured training, ongoing mentoring and industry leading technology, we'll give you everything you need to build a successful career in recruitment. For those who are ambitious, progression can be incredibly fast.

What You'll Be Doing

During your first few months you'll receive structured training covering every aspect of 360 recruitment, including:

  • Learning how to source and interview high-quality candidates
  • Building relationships with clients and candidates
  • Working alongside experienced consultants on live vacancies
  • Managing the full recruitment process from vacancy through to placement
  • Developing your own specialist technology market
  • Building a personal reputation as an expert within your sector

As your confidence grows, you'll take on more responsibility until you're managing your own desk with the support of experienced mentors around you.

What You'll Bring

You don't need recruitment experience, but you do need to enjoy sales.

We'd love to hear from you if you have experience in:

  • Telephone sales
  • Business Development
  • Recruitment Resourcing
  • Retail Management
  • Hospitality Management

Most importantly you'll have:

  • Confidence speaking with new people
  • A competitive nature
  • Strong work ethic
  • Ambition to build a long-term career
  • A genuine desire to earn exceptional commission
Training & Development

We don't expect you to know recruitment, that's our job to teach you.

From day one you'll receive structured training covering recruitment fundamentals, business development, negotiation, candidate management, client meetings, LinkedIn Recruiter, AI recruitment tools and specialist technology markets.

You'll work closely with experienced consultants who will coach you throughout your journey, helping you build confidence and become successful as quickly as possible.

Recruitment rewards people who work hard and learn quickly.

We believe in promoting from within, and many of our senior consultants and leaders started with little or no recruitment experience.

Your progression isn't based on time served; it's based on performance.

As you develop, you'll have opportunities to progress through:

  • Trainee Consultant
  • Recruitment Consultant
  • Senior Consultant
  • Business Manager
  • Senior Business Manager
  • Director

Along the way your earning potential grows significantly through uncapped commission, leadership opportunities and enhanced benefits.

What You'll Receive
  • Full structured recruitment training
  • Ongoing mentoring from experienced consultants
  • Warm desk with existing clients
  • AI recruitment technology
  • Marketing support
  • Uncapped commission from day one
  • Clear progression plan
  • Friday home working once established
  • Luxury offices overlooking Preston Docks
