JOB ROLE : TRAINEE RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT
SECTOR: EDUCATION
LOCATION: GLOUCESTER
Do you want:
-
your parents to think you work in tele-sales?
-
all your friends to sarcastically say ‘get me a job then?’
-
to explain to your grandparents you aren’t actually a teacher you just recruit them?
If so, it sounds like you are ready to embark on the world of recruitment.
Thrive Education are looking to recruit a Trainee Recruitment consultant to join our team.
Whilst it is a ‘trainee’ role you will be given a warm desk (I’ve never worked in recruitment what does that mean?) in short you will be given work that already exists and will mean you are ‘billing’ and eligible for commission from day one.
You will be working closely alongside a highly experienced recruiter who will help you on a day to day basis, you will though be jumping straight in you’ll be on the phone speaking with clients and candidates alike.
What you will probably enjoy.
-
Earning potential! On top of your basic salary you will be eligible for uncapped commission from your first day!
-
We have endless amounts of support; we have patience we want to help you become an incredible recruiter who loves an often-bemoaned industry! Mistakes happen we don’t care.
-
The buzz of making successful placements.
-
The chance to work with some incredible schools and teachers across the county.
-
Ridiculously relaxed office, we dress for our diary, we have plenty of distracting games consoles and events in the office, continuous soft drinks, coffee machines and energy drinks along side snacks galore, protein shakes (if you’re one of those gym people) a gym membership, termly social events.
-
Office is less than a mile from Starbucks, McDonalds, Tim Hortons, KFC, Puregym and my favorite perk B&M!
What you will have to learn to love:
-
KPI’s and targets .. we aren’t obsessed with them and you will never be micromanaged but this is recruitment you will have targets and people will ask how you are getting on.
-
The phone!! It’s a bit like sending a voice note but there’s someone else ready to reply immediately! We don’t hide behind emails we are a people focused business and we speak to all our schools and candidates!
-
Early starts - schools and candidates call early so you’ll have to be up early to take those calls. (heavily reduced hours in holidays)
-
Caffeine addictions, you’ll go from the odd iced latte to drinking black coffee by the pint in no time!
-
Lewis Capaldi on repeat, Ellis (owner/MD is a superfan and it’s on Spotify constantly)
-
Awful puns and rubbish dad jokes
-
Let downs and bad news, recruitment is ups and downs bad times will happen, youll get support though and be helped through these times.
Experience needed?
We feel confident we can train anyone as long as you have the right attitude, we don’t want ready made with 5 years’ experience. We want someone who wants to learn, wants to come in each day ready to really push themselves and be rewarded.
You could be a school leaver or a recent grad, you could be in a completely different career and just ready to try something new.
If you are looking for a career and not just a job, then look no further!
We look forward to hearing from you
