Your Year as a Recruitment Consultant:

As a Recruitment Consultant you’ll be responsible for delivering on commercial targets in your location and specialism. For example, you may be recruiting Finance professionals for clients / businesses in Central London for the year or could be sourcing HR professionals for businesses in Birmingham. As you progress through the application process we will assess your strengths and preferences (including locations and specialisms) to determine the best-fit team for you.

There’s no 'typical’ day in recruitment but due to the target-driven nature of the job and the fact that we aim to develop Future Leaders for the business through the Graduate Scheme, there will be high expectations for you to succeed. To do this you’ll need to be ambitious, resilient, a team-player and show real initiative in the way you optimise your workload to meet and exceed your targets.

Beyond Year One

By now you will have developed invaluable skills that can be transferred into a whole range of career avenues.

Loving the job? Stay on and work your way up to management through our Career Development Framework which rewards those who deliver on targets. You’ll also be given management training to help you make the transition into senior roles.

Want to expand your horizons? As a member of the Graduate Scheme you will have the option to move to another department or area of the Reed Group. Typical roles available on rotation include positions in areas such as: Marketing, Finance, IT, HR, and range of Project roles to meet the strategic business growth needs. Please be advised that most of these roles will be based in our Headquarters in London or Northampton. Alternatively you may choose to move to an operational role such as a Sales Executive at Reed.co.uk or Employment Advisor within Reed in Partnership.

Reed’s Commitment to Society

In addition to providing invaluable services to jobseekers and clients, and helping the social mobility of the UK workforce, Reed redirects 18% of its profits into the Reed Foundation which has been allocating charitable funds for almost 30 years.
