About the Role

Looking to kick-start a career in recruitment? We're on the hunt for a Trainee Recruitment Consultant to join our Barnsley team. No recruitment experience? No problem we'll give you full training, support, and a clear path to becoming a top-billing consultant. All we ask is that you bring the drive, energy, and personality.

This is an ideal opportunity for a confident communicator - perhaps with a background in sales, customer service, or another target-driven environment - who's looking for a career with real earning potential and progression.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Learning the full 360 recruitment process: sourcing, screening, and placing candidates
  • Making outbound calls to build relationships with new and existing clients
  • Advertising vacancies and headhunting suitable candidates
  • Interviewing and shortlisting candidates for live roles
  • Building your own desk and client base with support from experienced consultants
  • Working towards personal and team targets
  • Learning the ropes of negotiation, offer management, and closing deals

What We're Looking For

  • Confident, articulate, and personable - you'll be on the phone a lot
  • Competitive, resilient, and money-motivated
  • A strong work ethic and genuine desire to build a career, not just take a job
  • Previous experience in sales, retail, hospitality, or customer service is a big plus (but not essential)
  • Coachable happy to take on feedback and put training into practice
  • Organised, with good attention to detail

What's In It For You

  • Basic salary of up to £25,000, depending on experience
  • Full training programme with ongoing mentoring and support
  • Clear, fast-tracked progression into a full 360 consultant role
  • Modern office based in Barnsley with free on-site parking
  • Regular incentives, team socials, and rewards for top performers
  • A fun, supportive, and ambitious team culture
