Trainee Recruitment Consultant - Water
Location: Southampton
Salary: £25,000-£26,000 + uncapped commission
OTE: £40,000-£60,000+ in year one
If you're ambitious, competitive and want a career where your effort has a genuine impact on what you earn and how quickly you progress, recruitment could be worth a look.
We're hiring a Trainee Recruitment Consultant to join our Water team at Highfield.
You don't need recruitment experience. We're much more interested in your attitude, work ethic and what motivates you.
What will you actually be doing?
You'll be building relationships with people and businesses across the UK water sector, helping clients find the talent they need to deliver major infrastructure projects.
Day to day, that means:
Speaking to candidates and building your own network
Finding and approaching people for live roles
Building relationships with clients
Learning how to negotiate, sell and influence
Managing recruitment processes from first conversation through to placement
Working towards clear targets and earning commission when you deliverYou'll be given the training and support to learn the job properly, but this isn't a role where you can sit back and wait for things to happen.
The people who do well here are proactive, resilient and want to push themselves.
Who are we looking for?
You might be coming from sales, hospitality, sport, retail, customer service or straight from college or university.
Your background matters less than how you approach things.
We're looking for someone who:
Is ambitious and wants to progress quickly
Likes competing and working towards targets
Is confident speaking to new people
Can handle setbacks and keep going
Wants to earn more by performing well
Takes feedback and wants to improve
Is willing to put the work in to build something for themselves
Why Highfield?
Recruitment gives you the opportunity to take control of your career much earlier than many traditional graduate routes.
At Highfield, you'll get:
Uncapped commission with no threshold
A clear route into senior consultant, leadership or principal-level roles
Structured training and ongoing coaching
Regular incentives and rewards
Flexi Fridays with a 3pm finish
Opportunities to work with major businesses across critical infrastructure
A supportive team around you while you build your own market and reputationThe Water team recruits into an industry responsible for some of the UK's most important infrastructure, so you'll also be building expertise in a market with long-term demand.
You don't need to know anything about water infrastructure on day one.
You do need to be hungry to learn, willing to pick up the phone and motivated by seeing your own progress.
If that sounds like you, apply and have a conversation with us
