Awesome tech recruitment company looks for a bright, ambitious and driven individual to join them as a trainee Rebel Recruiter / Researcher!

The ideal candidate: Someone with a good academic background (though we are open-minded for a talented individual who might have flopped their exams!), some previous work experience, a hard-working attitude and excellent spoken/written English.

Have you recently finished college, but decided against going to Uni (even though you probably have the grades to do so)?  Confused about what to do next?

Are you confident, hard-working and able to work on your initiative? Are you ambitious and hungry to start a long-term career?

Fancy working at the heart of the tech industry in an upbeat and people-focused environment?

Working in tech recruitment is probably not something you’ve ever considered, but it could be something you’d be perfect for!

But be warned, this career path isn’t for everyone.  It suits people who possess a highly driven attitude, who love the thrill of making things happen (and getting paid well for doing so) and people who have terrific people skills, including the ability to persuade and win people over.

The role of a recruitment researcher is a starting point on the recruitment consultancy career path.  This role involves supporting our experienced recruiters on often complex recruitment assignments.  You will spend your days working with your colleagues to understand the types of candidates we are looking to find for our customers and then search for those candidates using various tools and sources.

The role requires high levels of focus, urgency and the ability to think outside of the box.  You will spend a large amount of time searching through online profiles, CVs and candidate records, so high levels of attention to detail are important.

You’ll also spend time researching new candidate networks, target companies and helping us to build a pipeline of prospects for more senior recruiters to engage with.

As you progress you may also be encouraged to develop your own candidate networks and eventually win your own clients (employers) through business development activities. This is the long-term goal, to turn you into a highly successful, specialist recruiter, and this role will be the first step in that career!

You will need to be someone who is naturally sharp and picks things up quickly – our work is very fast-paced and we work with high levels of initiative.  It’s a demanding work environment, but one that’s fun and supportive.

If you’re interested, you’ll need to write at least a paragraph or two explaining why you’d be a great match for our business and why we’d be mad not to hire you.

Do take a look at our website to get a feel for who we are and the types of roles we recruit for.

As long as you write a cover note with your application, you will get a guaranteed personal reply from our Managing Director.

Your pay will progress as you do, but you will start on a base salary of between £18k – £23k and realistically up to £2.5k in bonuses in your first year.

You’ll also get to enjoy weekly team lunches, regular team events and various other incentives to keep things interesting.

Most importantly though, you will learn from other talented and successful recruiters to help you progress your career long-term, where if you make it as a successful, specialist recruiter you can enjoy earning anywhere from £40k-£120k or more within a few years.

If you’re ready, so are we.  Hit apply and let’s see what you’re made of!

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.
