Trainee Recruitment Consultant

Do you have sales and customer service experience, but are pushing for your next challenge? Are you looking for a role where you can control your own success and earning potential?

Full sector specific training will be provided.

Your achievements as a Trainee Recruitment Consultant will be rewarded with a competitive basic salary, uncapped bonus scheme, and a generous benefits package.
